*I meant "when it was said"

I've been thinking about this more and more as things have become pretty hellish around me, at least at times, and it's hard to keep having faith that something good is going to come of this. The only reasonable answer for why things are continuing on is that we are definitely in some kind of a war where the other side is still fighting back. So this thought came to me that maybe that we are watching a movie concept is just referring to certain things, not every aspect that we are experiencing in our lives. I have witnessed first hand violent confrontations and things in California that didn't seem to happen before so that's certainly doesn't feel like a movie, but stuff like the Afghanistan withdrawal, all the crazy shit that Biden says and does, that all feels like a movie to me. The day to day life stuff is very real though
