A tax charged by time itself

“Fiat time keeps moving forward whether meaning is created or not. It doesn’t care about energy, attention, or truth. It only cares that the clock advances and output continues.” -About Time

“Our conscious decisions, precede the block.” 🤯 I am HERE for this 👀 Will be reviewing the paper detail in length - crazy how much overlap here with my recent writings About Time. Phenomenal work Jack & Nick

“From the moment we wake up, time arrives as pressure. Alarms, calendars, notifications, schedules. Time isn’t something we experience anymore. It’s something we manage, optimize, and try not to fall behind.” - About Time

“The quiet sense of being “behind” isn’t a personal failure. It’s what happens when human life is forced to move inside an abstract timeline. When time is imposed instead of lived, disorientation becomes the default state.” - About Time

No idea.. but checks out!

“We’re taught to measure life in days, years, deadlines, and paychecks. Those measurements feel objective, almost sacred. But they’re not neutral. They shape how we move, what we value, and what we ignore. Most of us never chose this clock. We were simply born into it.” - About Time
