...Why are you actually offended by the fact that I think the future has already happened in some sense? There's no cutting down on possibilities in my perception because there are no different possibilities. If anything that might just mean I value Ni/Se rather Ne/Si, but it's not a meaningless response just because you haven't read Slaughterhouse Five and all the philosophy I'm referencing with B-theories of time and you don't know what kind of metaphor I'm making.
