Jeremy Brett's voice is half of it. Like the show is microphoned beautifully & every sound is like walnuts. But also his voice is amazing. He does that thing—Jeremy Irons does the same thing. They breathe through their vowels. Or rather, they hum their vowels: www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOdM...

Whenever I read something a physicist has written about time, I think, "Ok but what you really mean is a specific measurement." Because time is just another thing we measure. Like volume. Or love. Or bone density.
The real head explodey stuff is what if there is something else besides measurement.

It's just really striking to me that humans can ONLY measure things. Like that's what we do. We can't really conceive of another way of existing except by measure.
But does that mean the universe exists only by measure?

I can't tell if you're joking, but that is what I was wondering—if they never paid attention to this title in particular or to titles in general. I was going to continue a conversation if they turned out to be a fan of The Exorcist.

I don't know if they were trying to temper my complaint about people being threatened by sincerity or if they were just projecting. But absolutely you need time to cook. And especially for neurodivergent people it may not be true at all.
