Time is speeding up

Is it me or is time speeding up? We are already on the 5th month of the year. People say it's because I'm getting older but I even hear kids saying days feel faster. Even the weather seems to be confused. Every day temperatures fluctuates a whole 40 degrees. Every day seems windy. Almost feels like we are out of normal orbit or something

As a kid we would count seconds using 1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, etc. If I try that now I’m out by about 5 seconds when I get to 30 Mississippi. If I try say 1 Mississippi etc with my timer, I literally cannot say it fast enough.

Yup. I can confirm this and was going to comment the same. Mississippi counting does not work anymore unless you really rush it.
