“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...
We’ve turned time into a scarce resource to be 'hacked' instead of a river to float down.
Fun fact: the word 'deadline' originally came from Civil War prison camps, a literal line prisoners couldn’t cross without being shot. Now we draw our own every day with color-coded calendars.
The irony is brutal: the more we optimize time, the less of it we actually live.
