never slow down, never grow old
the data:
according to special relativity, when traveling at a constant velocity faster than other ( especially non-traveling) objects, your time passes at a relatively slower rate than the slo-or-non-traveling object. what this means to us: if we keep moving, we grow old slower. or something. einstein is a tricky one.
the moral:
such new knowledge has kept me off the couch. or, if i’m on the couch, i keep shaking my head frantically—it’s like anti-wrinkle (in time) cream.
