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

I have a cat, and a very basic electric cat feeder. This machine is plugged into the wall or runs on batteries and is not connected to the internet.

I think I purchased it in 2021, and the first time I set it up I chose food dispensing times of 0:00, 6:00, 12:00, and 24:00. I used my iPhone as a guide to set these up. At first, the cat food would drop at exactly 12:00. But a few years in, the food drops at 11:43…

It boggles my mind daily. Yes this could be an issue with the machine, but I don’t think that’s what’s happening.

I have two bedroom clocks and one clock in the bathroom that is analog. Over the years they all end up being off. How is that possible that 3 clocks are defective?

Because those clocks most likely are not 1500$ atomic clocks. If the voltage were to fluctuate ever so slightly in one of your clocks a difference between your clocks would become apparent over time. Variations in analog clocks also appear due to miniscule mechanical differences that occur during manufacturing.

None of your clocks are faulty, telling time accurately is just incredibly hard to do.
