I just questioned my father once more about that website. He is absolutely certain I was standing in his doorway and told him about the website. No way was it anyone else (and frankly, I am pretty sure he would have never found it on his own). He understands the 'time slip' thing, too, and we often (so often it's hard to take notice, but I will from now on) have moments where he remembers something differently from the way I do. Not totally differently, but differing in detail. Yes, his short-term memory is like swiss cheese, but he's got a few years until senility jumps him, I reckon.

I've had people insist that I told them something or gone somewhere with them. Upon open minded questioning I found that they were with someone else or that It happened when they were supposed to be doing something with me but got someone else to help. I have even done that myself, thinking I had done something with someone that was supposed to but had to cancel. We can't remember everything.
I don't see a 'problem'. I see 'information' in a world where, quite literally, thoughts are things. Sure, they are invisible to our physical eyes, but they have a very real existence of their own. Given enough energy thoughts can and do take on physical form. That is what people are, IMO; thoughts of a higher form of consciousness, given enough energy to be our own selves.

I don't watch TV. Any entertainment I do indulge in is watched actively and I compulsively fact-check plotlines. I've learned to do it silently, much to the delight of my friends (who are real and don't come out of a box, unless you mean a box-shaped house)
I think someone is trying to say you're watching too much TV and need more people that don't come out of a box.
Maybe.
Actually you were probably doing something productive in one of those parallel worlds and then your consciousness energy either raised or dropped, probably by meeting a challenge that you could not overcome (you could have died in one of those parallel worlds and then efficiently refocused on the worlds you could live in). Willpower accounts for something.

First, we are conscious creative beings; our minds make our world. So we see what we want to see. You have a personal memory of things having occurred a certain way in a certain world context, but when you bring it to another witness, they say otherwise.
Originally posted by Sandalphon A little personal story: when I was younger, I went through a time shift like that, actually involved some kind of time travel, but then I got back to my house or original position, and some other people (from the future or a layer of time, I don't know) with advanced light technology came by and blanked out my memory of where I had been.
