January 7, 20242 yr A few year ago I had some friends over for a BBQ. As we sat around the table I noticed a mouse scurrying around the deck. I observed the mouse in my peripheral vision and noticed every time I looked directly at the mouse it immediately seemed to be aware of my stare and ran away. But after a minute or so returned to scurrying around right next to where we we sat. After making this observation a number of times I decided I'd make it the subject of conversation. I told my wife and friends not to look directly at the mouse, I wanted to demonstrate to them the mouse would pay no attention to us unless I looked directly him and then run away. Everyone agreed the mouse didn't seem to care that we were so close and interested to see the mouse run away at the very moment I looked directly at it. I look at it and the mouse turned and stood on its hind legs and eye balled me like he was in a starring contest. Even the sound of my friends and especially my wife laughing at me did not deter the mouse from its starring contest which he won by the way. That was at least 10 years ago. To this day every time I'm wrong about an observation my wife bring up that mouse and get extremely animated. It's a joy for me to see her so happy even if it's as a result of me being humiliated by a mouse.

January 8, 20242 yr I remember reading about Seal Team 6 years ago and it was mentioned that some guys would not look directly at their enemy on the approach to a raid as they thought the enemy could sense that. So maybe it's not just mice

So maybe it's not just mice The parasychologist, Rupert Sheldrake, carried out experiments on this and claimed people have a weak sense of being stared at. I don't think it's ever been replicated though. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychic_staring_effect#:~:text=Parapsychologist Rupert Sheldrake carried out,of not being stared at.

January 8, 20242 yr The movie version of "Cats" failed. Perhaps the audience suspected that it was really just costumed humans. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.
