It feels like one of those flasbacks in a movie

Where a persons most important moments of life are flashed for a brief second and clipped together to give a sense of history.

But our snippets are happening real time. Major news events, political deaths, foreign intrigue, violence, and much more flittering across all our lives at warp speed. Can barely keep up with the cycle.

Never lived in a time like this before. Was there one? What was closest?
