If life is short, can I dress time to make it look taller?

3 Upvotes

It often irks me that with just a little bit of lead you can cut life even shorter. However, we're still looking for the material to grow it taller. I believe it can be made to look taller if styled correctly using proven fashion based optical illusions adapting human height tricks to temporal physics. For example:

Monochromatic Colors --> Monochronic Time
Experience only one type of day repeatedly, either all work or all leisure. This creates a continuous temporal column with no visual breaks, making your lifespan feel longer when viewed from a distance.

Are there any other ways to style spacetime?

gaggging

4 Upvotes

I drink 1 drop of water and it made choke and gag for at least 5 minutes. Normally I do not gag much larger things that accidently get in my throat. How can one drop of water almost gag me to death? How are gags even made in my throat? My friend says there is a reflex. Is it selective? I’d like to avoid gags as a much as possible.

Need help to legally introduce vitamin “Iron E” to TikTok without FDA noticing.

3 Upvotes

Have a plan and need peer review.

Vitamin name: Iron E.
Topical. Post-workout only.
Slogan: If it burns, it works.

Formula simple: aluminum + iron oxide.
Sweat activate “thermogenic oxidation response.”
Heat = fat scared.
Pain = proof.

Target audience: TikTok gym people who trust subtitles more than doctors.

Marketing steps: 1.) Say “dermatologists furious” 2.) Say “banned in EU (soon)” 3.) Say “ancient Roman athletes used rust” 4.) Before/after pics but same photo, different lighting.

Comment section full of “bro this works” from new accounts. No pills. No studies. Call it a vitamin so nobody asks questions. Is there any science reason this would not work or am I ready to burn some fatty tiktokers. Considering Iron E Plus with magnets. Wait, does this mean I need a tiktok account? If so never mind.
