Sounds like a nightmare when you're dying and probably in pain... It extends that painful state for a virtually infinite time.
Not to mention the overwhelming amounts of unimaginable suffering you would see.
And joy, but I'd say being suddenly ommiciant to all the life of humanity but completely impotent sounds awful
The prompt said that time freezes. No time = no pain.
Im not sure if there would be pain, but it's a possibility. When I thought of the question I figured everything but your mind would freeze, perhaps I should have been more explicit when I phrased it. I understand those asking to experience the lives of others - even strangers- but I can't understand those asking for an infinite answer such as a number in hopes of.... What? Staying in a limbo doing nothing but absorbing a number?
