I'm always stunned by now fast time seems to fly anymore for me. It's June, we're 6 months into 2026, and that's blowing my mind right now. It feels like time is always going so fast and I have so many things I want to do, but so little time to do any of them.

That's really the thing with fear of death for me, I've lived with the knowledge I could just die at any time my entire life. It's not that I fear dying, it's that I fear dying without doing the things I want to do or living the life I want to live.

I've been reading the latest Dungeon Crawler Carl, and I haven't failed to notice that Carl keeps getting to the point where it's "I just have to get over this next life-threatening challenge and then I can just breathe for a minute and try to take stock, sort out my priorities for the rest of this floor and the next floors", but the dungeon keeps ramping up the pressure and never wants to give him that breather. I realised earlier today, it's very much like what modern life feels like. (I mean, that's rather the point of science fiction.)
