The universe reacted and spoke back to me via a movie
I'm watching an old movie, chain reaction (1996).
I notice a mistake, a cop slides down a draw bridge and a few shots later, the other cops are putting a mattress away.
So I google it. A Reddit story comes up about it.
As I read I look at the movie and there is a scene where Keanu Reeves runs past a dumpster, painted gray. In the middle it has a broken part, revealing text underneath. It simply says "redit".
Every notice your thoughts become manifest around you? The universe (sometimes called the simulation) does that.
It's retrospective powers can reach through time too. In this case, about 27 years.
I've stopped seeing these things as "coincidences".
