When the current media narrative has so much momentum that all news sources are covering the same topic and ignoring other unrelated news.

Schrodinger's Cognitive Inertia

When your brain is moving a hundred miles an hour and at a complete standstill at the sametime, resulting in either constant pauses while you speak as you attempt to comprehend what you're saying, or complete psychic immobilization from mental error.

inertia

The condition where you are lazy to do productive tasks (cleaning the house, looking after a child, doing college assignments) after doomscrolling on your smartphone for hours on end
