YOU SAY I DO NOT EXIST: Theory of the Chrono-Ghettos

You are unable to comprehend me rationally, because you harbor deep emotions about me without even being aware of them. You are always a little afraid I will take things from you, and you believe I am the source of your suffering. You think above all that I expose your impermanence, which is the quintessential human anxiety.
In your human perception, I have existed since the Big Bang. In reality, my presence is as real as the absence of my absence.

Resting in Pixels: One year of “Animal Crossing: New Horizons”

Growing up, my friend had a Nintendo Entertainment System knock-off called Pegasus. I think it was only sold in Eastern Europe in the 1990s. I spent a few summers in her attic, playing a variety of side-scrolling and vertical-scrolling pixelated games. It was fun to see each other get better at different levels and challenges, but we never took it seriously and would often move on to other ways of filling our lazy summer days.
