I turned 44 just the other day; honestly, without a doubt I’d have taken the pill the day before my 21st birthday. One big do-over and minimal responsibilities to manage after the de-aging.
✔️ Someone taking care of me 24/7 for a period measured in years?
✔️ School? What a joke. Ace everything, be a social and intellectual prodigy?
✔️ No bills, no responsibilities?
✔️ Boundless energy and Wolverine-like healing?
✔️ One set of friends in their 40s with life and professional advice/connections for you as you turn 21; and another set of friends your own age bursting with enthusiasm, ideas, and a gleam in their eye?
Like, I’m not seeing a downside to this over here…
You will not be taken serious, you will have no friends as everyone thinks you are a freak, your aceing in school will put you on a special gifted track, with high expectations that you will fall short of tremendously, once you outpaced the school stuff you just could do by memory.
By the time you are physically 20 again you will be a failed freak, that is distanced from his family and probably severely mentally ill, from the constant rejection by both children and adults.

This is why the relived past is a trap for the mind.
Says the guy from the future… 😅
What is this magic?
They’re from another instance whose clock is set wrong
I’m a little adrift…
