The mediation of pressure or in that idea, emotion

If time is omnipresent than maybe, they were happening and existing while they didn’t. Past present and future as one. Seems closer to a modern quantum idea over old metaphysics tho.

Well, I'm not exactly sure what you're saying here, but I believe that everything is pre-determined and we have a definite future, so I guess that your number of upvotes has been predestined!

Is there any version where I vote less and someone else makes up in upvotes what I 'wasted'? It was a thought experiment to question Beckett's assertion more profoundly.
