Time flowing in one direction is probably an illusion...
LOL, your tagline is brilliant, GOPJ! (Was misery & death worth the four bucks saved on the crappy waffle-iron 'made in China?) * * * As to the question of time flowing in multiple directions. Isn't Time itself but a human construct -- an electronic or analog "ticking" wrapper for a series of sequential events? Can we really alter the sequence of a past event? Similarly, can't we say that Distance is like overlaying a fisherman's net (or grid) over a map? Ah, but does the grid actually exist? Can we warp the grid to such a degree that the uninhabited and volcanic Antipodes Islands, south of New Zealand, would lie right outside their antipode near London? If we could, then there's great danger living in La Rioja, Argentina, because if you dug straight down through the Earth from there, you will have dug a hole to China -- Wuhan City, China to be precise! Where's my Antipode? Check it out here. |
With the passage of time, it's an illusion I increasingly want to shake.
Your tagline:
Nowadays, I can’t just fine-tune my shopping to look for the Made In Panda Poop label, since by doing so and putting it back while possibly breathing on it, I could potentially contaminate it — assuming I’m packin’ Panda Poop virus — right before a vulnerable person picks it up right before scratching his/her face.
However, when things are more back to normal, you bet I will be boycotting Panda Poop items wherever I can! Fortunately, there are places where I can start that right now (AMC theaters, Tik-Tok, Lenovo, other readily visible brand names which I remember are at least part-Chicomm owned, etc.).
