What things do you often forget exist? - Out of sight, out of mind

[Meat Target]

For me:

• The many landlocked countries of central Asia, the inland provinces of China, and that millions of people actually live there
• Small market sports teams, such as the Jacksonville Jaguars or Colorado Rockies
• That the Soviet Union had an internet domain (.su)

Sadly through the march of time I've forgotten many of the things I enjoy. My music archive became lost to me with the death of mp3 players and I, like many others depend on online platforms, but sadly those aren't reliable.

I had a playlist on YouTube that was to create specific moods for any scene I was writing in my story. Upon revisiting that playlist I've noticed a number of songs have disappeared and I don't even know what they are anymore. I just have to trust in myself to know what to look up when I'm writing certain scenes.

I think forgetting things and seeing things disappear is a part of getting older. It's just another product of the human condition we have to cope with.

Can't remember right now, sorry.

Orange juice.

Random areas just off of my normal path. Say, if I make a few uncommon turns and find myself in a nice little park, I may forget all about it if I'm away for a year.

Wetbikes, which were these janky jetski/motorcycle hybrids that were fairly popular for a period of time. My uncle owned one until it randomly exploded, which I don't think was uncommon.

Never even knew that was a thing, in the first place

Other people.

Seems I keep forgetting a TV set can get TV broadcasts and isn't just a monitor.

Antarctica. There is an entire continent at the bottom of the earth that has no permanent population besides some scientists and it's really weird.

I remember having to learn about Antarctica in Geography class, during the start of highschool. I was actually pretty excited, at first, because they told us we were going to learn about a whole continent for the year. I thought it would be something interesting, like Europe or Asia. Turns out, it was the one continent that barely even had a human fucking population. I was so pissed. Didn't help that our teacher was a total cunt. Bitch wasn't even a qualified Geography teacher
