I feel like North Korean news wouldn’t be so casual about opposition and political protests. Not that they wouldn’t mention them. But I’d expect them to lean much more into their anti-capitalist righteousness or something along those lines.
I wanted to counter this with the fact that you and me are both still alive, so the rate is only approaching 100%, but probably never quite there. Then I did a safety google, and got to learn that fatality rate apparently doesn’t care about the time until death. So as long as I don’t assume I’m immortal, your fact still holds true. But then I remembered that some jellyfish and sponges are considered to be be more or less immortal. Which raises the question: do we count beings which will most probably die out due to the expansion of our own sun as part of that 100% rate?
I have deja-vues surprisingly often. Every once in a while, I’m talking to somebody about a certain topic, or doing a specific thing in a specific location, and I get this memory that I’ve seen this exact thing happen in a dream some time ago. The weird thing about that is that I usually forget my dreams right after waking up. I know I have vivid dreams, but their contents is usually gone from my mind within seconds of waking up. It’s probably just my brain doing things. But some irrational part of me believes that I have some weak form of cassandras curse, where I am allowed to see the future, but not allowed to remember it.
