I don't get why people are so bothered by the passage of time. Y'all, you wouldn't believe the gaming hardware we have now if the ps1 isn't supposed to be far away (and it's even changed a very little bit since 2019).
I just realized that most of the people commenting online are younger than me now and it made me more chill in reading all those comments now. (No, this is not me coping with the feeling of dread due to being reminded of my own mortality).
the same reason people are bothered by so many other things.
they freak out at their lack of control and they wish they could control things. especially how they are perceived by others...
and a lot of folks are so desperate for a sense of control they are easily conned by hucksters who sell them on the idea they can prevent cancer by popping expensive supplements or going on $15,000 yoga retreats.
a lot of our economy is built on preying on human insecurity and it's anxious need for perceived control of our bodies, other people, and our environments.
Oh, you thought that was a question. I know what the fear of aging and death is my guy, I was making a joke about it.
