    Ask my future self something. I get a leg up on everyone and future-me’s timeline collapses - not mine.

      This is the real answer. You can’t change your past, or the current version of you would not exist. You might still exist but not this version of you. It might be better or it might be worse but most things in your life would be completely different. And you definitely wouldn’t remember the change.

      We don’t realize how intertwined different parts of our life are. If you just pause a second in your daily life and do nothing, you have literally changed your future and that of the entire world. It’s not some woo-woo vibes thing, you are literally slightly adjusting everything around you by existing and acting. It’s impossible to tell exactly how until much later.

      “Hey future self!”

      “…”

      “Hello?”

      “…”

      “Oh shit, he must be dead”
