I remember that day very well. Which is weird considering my memory is so bad that I don't remember what I was doing 2 days ago LOL

Major world moment. Shapes the course we're on. All of us, and we're just spectators, some of us actors.

Our brain most strongly remembers novel experiences. If you've done the same thing over and over again it all kind of blends together, but something new sticks out. This is also why time seems to pass more quickly as you get older, you're having less novel experiences.
Watching the invasion realtime is something none of us have experienced before and was really stressful for most people. It was also smack in the middle of a time where most people had really boring day-to-day lives due to pandemic restrictions, so it REALLY sticks out.

Watching traffic cameras all across northern Ukraine, seeing tank columns roll through real time. And then the cameras started to shut off, one after the other.
It was a fucking weird period of time. And not a terribly happy one.
