This might be some confirmation bias, but it feels like everything has gotten a bit dumber since the pandemic and I wonder if covid effects on the brain are a part of it. Like I feel "normal" now, but I don't think this current "normal" is the same as what "normal" used to be for me. And for like 6 months after my first infection, it literally felt like my brain wasn't working as clearly as it normally did.
