Okay, this is going to sound really stupid, but please bear with me.

This just happened: I'm scrolling through my phone, and, out of nowhere, a black speck appears on the screen. I keep scrolling, and it disappears. I thought nothing of it.

All of a sudden, it reappears. Probably just a glitch on the web page. It disappears again, and so on.

Curious, I start swiping up and down the page (mostly white with some text and an image, which would cause the speck to vanish every time it passed through it), and it would pop up and fade away at seemingly random intervals, always in the same position on the screen.

Finally, I decide to wipe it away... and it turns out it was just a piece of debris, after all.

I'm left baffled. It sounds super mundane in context, but I really have no explanation as to how or why it would cease to exist, only to remanifest itself like that. Almost as if it was in some sort of superposition, only I was watching it the whole time...

Anyhow, I've had plenty of far stranger things happen in my life, but I just felt compelled to share this here.

Be well, everyone! ✌️❤️
