I prefer to think of it like this:

I could read amazing books all my life and not worry about running out of new (to me) books

[–] Banana@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

Was having that same thought myself!

Kinda yes, but expanded to human creation in general

So many movies to watch, books to read, games to play, music to hear, paintings to see, buildings to explore, poems to contemplate

If I was capable of such feelings, I wouldnt have 300 unplayed games in my Steam library.

I'm more worried about all the things I'll never be able to know, and that the world will continue to go on without me making new history for people to learn in the future, but it will be as if I never existed.

Not at all. I’m 100% sure that spending as much time as possible playing Umamusume is the most spiritually fulfilling course of action one can embark on in this life

No, because more and more are constantly being made, fools errand.

Yes, but a lot of those new books are not even about penguins.

The thing is, I could probably read all the books that I would consider "amazing" before I die. But I don't really know whether a book is "amazing" before reading a considerable amount of it. Plus a book that I consider amazing at 30 is not necessarily a book that I consider amazing at 70, so the timing matters a lot.
