Every new drop in the memory bucket is proportional to all the memories in the bucket. Each new memory makes up less of the whole, making it seem like time goes faster. It’s a real phenomenon
How do I make time stop going faster?
Learn new things, do new stuff.
No that just makes time go by even faster, cause time flies when you’re having fun. I need real solutions.
According to Einstein, you can sit on a hot stove.
Then you just need to forget everything you know… Traumatic head injury?
When I say ‘learn new things’, I don’t mean watch YouTube videos of factoids. I mean things like sitting down and learning calculus if you haven’t already. You’ll need to push yourself out of your comfort zone significantly to slow down the perceived passage of time.
“The year 2000!!!” still sounds like the future to me in my head.
Nah, you have to compress everything since 2000 in a single line, and make 2020 take all of the rest of it.
Now do January 2025.
The IRL version of the used car salesman meme: “(Slaps roof) We can fit so many months inside this bad boy…”
Just wait for the rest of the year. I had finally gotten done with 2016 and now this?
Born in 1981, yep.
I am on the contrary quite comforted by this. Easier to make sense of things, tackle or accept things that don’t make sense.
Lots of difficulties behind, making current and future ones seem manageable.
Growing old is not that bad.
On average, every 120 years, the entire human population is renewed
Everyone in the entire world alive today, on average wasn’t around 120 years ago
And in 120 years from now (on average and depending on how well we develop new medical technologies) everyone, including you and me, will all be gone and forgotten.
The impacts of people definitely live on so I wouldn’t necessarily say forgotten.
So that’s the important part. Don’t be an anonymous human. Leave something for future people to remember your fleeting life.
2025… IT doesn’t feel real as the current year, I legitimately odn’t understand how I’m still alive. I feel like an aged immortal being that was there at the dawn of man and has watched him fail to approach anything resembling a true Gilded Age, and now I crave death to see a world beyond the material, to be free from my captors, and ascend to greater things.
I’m 33
why do so many people put the punchline at the start of the joke?
I think that’s just how kids these days make jokes. Strange times indeed
