I would suggest that it's not "single threaded", either.

Comparing consciousness to how a CPU processes instructions is very poor analogy, because to this day, because the nature of consciousness is still a complete mystery to science.

I mean, we can think about stuff, but we don't think about them one after the other. We're thinking all of the time, but we tend to focus on what's immediately interesting to us. Consciousness is a pretty complex thing to unravel...
