Yeah, it’s something I catch myself doing all the time too, confirming a bias I have but then just moving on anyway. As if confirming the bias somehow made it okay to just have it.

In the moment itself I manage to move away from the bias - but a lot of times it probably happens subconsciously.

It's tricky to overcome, not sure if it is even possible to overcome it entirely.
