When did you realize that linear time is only 1 way to look at time.

You cannot escape the ever present past.

It's the present.
The future is just an aspect of the present and the past isn't real

If you really think about it, the past comes out of the present and future and not the other way around.

Time’s a growing block
The past is on the clock
If not a growing block
Then Time can suck my cock.

"Time" is just a weighted network of events, which we happen to traverse in a particular method.

The metre of time becomes necessary, or useful, only within stratisfied/dispersed beingness —in the case of this kosmos, through created space—; time has no matter —literally, and figuratively— at the depth of being.

Timespace constitutes absolute time —the recorded totality of imperienced spacetime—, a librarypocket of eternity.
