What if a copy of you woke up in the morning? So you could see your dead body from yesterday, but consciousness would seem as continuous to you as normal–you went to sleep yesterday and effectively woke up today, just in a different body? Would it bother you knowing you weren’t technically the same you as yesterday, even if it seemed like it to you?

Sorry, should have been more specific. If you died in your sleep every night and came back to life in the morning, and you couldn’t tell it was happening, would it matter?

It’s not a question with a right answer, I just want to hear your thoughts about it

Obviously not, but what is the functional difference? If you can’t tell it’s happening, does it actually matter?

No, I really don’t need another bunch of money spent for a half finished project that I’m never going to finish or hobby that I’ll never return to. It sounds bad but it truly is better for me to give up and not try, at least it doesn’t continue piling failures on top of me.

Mooooood. One of the few hook ups I’ve had, afterwards, he held me close, little spoon, and ran his finger delicately around my side and abs and told me that was the sexiest part of me and told me I was amazing and it was hard to not burst into tears. I’d never felt attractive before. I’d never felt truly wanted like that before. I don’t think I will again. It’s harder now, when you’ve been starved for affection and touch for so long having a brief glimpse of it is almost worse than never having had it at all. It’ll take a long time to numb back down I think.

You are literally one of the people in the last panel

Do you live with yourself?

Very unfortunately I do. Wouldn’t if people didn’t insist I stay

But that’s not his stop!

The top commenter is correct. It’s why when you glance at a clock with a second hand, it can seem like it takes too long for it to move for the next second. It moved as you moved your eyes, and your brain didn’t make up the movement.

I’d like to be perceived as a corpse
