Phenomenon: increased glitches during winter solstice period

Has anyone else noticed an uptick in what I'd call "simulation glitches" around the winter solstice? I'm talking those weird synchronicity moments, déjà vu spikes, technology malfunctions that don't have obvious explanations, that sort of thing.

I've been keeping a log for about four years now, and there's a definite spike between November 15th and January 5th. Mostly concentrated around the actual solstice (December 21st). My hypothesis is that the solstice - and the longer nights - create some kind of processing strain on whatever system we're in. Like the universe's server is struggling.

I know it sounds mad. But I've got spreadsheets of documented glitches and the correlation is pretty solid. Wondering if anyone else has noticed this pattern or if I'm just seeing patterns where there aren't any.

This is interesting because there's also a spike in reported paranormal activity during the solstices. Makes sense if reality is "thinner" during astronomical events. The membrane between what's real and what's glitching becomes more permeable. Might be related to how the sun's angle affects... something. Geomagnetic fields? Consciousness? Who knows.

I mean, you could also argue that winter makes people more depressed/introspective, which makes them more aware of anomalies they'd normally ignore. Selection bias rather than actual glitch increase. Would need to check if other people are reporting the same things without being primed to expect them.

If we're in a simulation, then yeah, the geometry of Earth relative to the sun would create computational hotspots. Certain angles might require more processing power. Solstices are extreme points - maximum solar angle deviation. Worth looking at equinoxes too. Are your glitches consistent across those dates?

Post your data, mate. If you've actually got four years of logged glitches with timestamps, that's potentially valuable. The Simulation Theory subforum would love to see it, and you'd get proper analysis rather than just anecdotal responses.

Completely plausible. Also worth checking: are physical glitches more common than digital ones during this period? Or mental glitches (memory issues, cognitive hiccups)? Different types might suggest different causes.
