Brain found to store three copies of every memory

There's a guy in Twitter who thinks that the brain is an antenna that receives consciousness, or something like that. I'll see if I can find it, but it's kind of hard to navigate Twitter since I got banned.

Edit: I couldn't find it. Something about microtubules

Are these microtubules located in the Pineal gland?

One of "those guys" is Sir Roger Penrose.

A quick search on "microtubule consciousness" brings forth an enormous amount of spilled digital ink on the subject.

Sabine Hossenfelder had a "science daily" video about it recently on Youtube. Worth a watch/listen.
