For example how come I can be playing a video game and it seems to me time as sped up? Or how about someone in prison or jail and it appears to them that time has slowed? And other. Both groups know its not as speed up or down but just seems that way? Why is this?

Read books in jail. Time flies.

Well, reading often makes me sleepy.

And the more you can sleep the time away, the better it'll scale.

I mean how long did it work for? Days, weeks, months, years, decades?

Until you break your glasses, classically.

It's the first 2 or 3 weeks that are the worst. Then you get into the routine.

Longest I've sat was about 2 months... Just waiting for court. Then I got time served. If it wasn't COVIDemic I probably would have gotten time served the next morning.

And that's the absolute worst part. No sentence just sitting there waiting for court or whatever.

I can read about 40-50 pages/hour enjoyably. So about 8-10 hours I can knock out an average novel. Though I'm probably going to take some naps along the way. Which is fun cuz I usually dream about the book.
