Författare till den här artikeln beskriver en kort sci -fi historia:
The story centered on a man living in a futuristic, hyper-prosperous civilization. All of society’s problems had been solved, and death was a distant memory. It had been discovered that humans are not meant to live more than about 125 years. It wasn’t a limitation of physics, biology, neurology, or technology — it was a fundamental limit of conscious self-awareness. Each passing year brought more reasons to not do things than to do them, gradually narrowing into a nihilistic tunnel vision that led inevitably to insanity. The main character developed a strategy to cope: every 100 years he dedicated to a personal passion, at the end of which he would have his mind wiped, only to start again on something else. The story recounts the final moments of a century dedicated to the study of insects. Gazing on cases upon cases of meticulously collected and catalogued bugs from every corner of the world, the man reminisces about his vast entomological experience. As the clock winds down and the mind-wipe begins to take effect, he looks forward to his reincarnation with a childlike anticipation that he hasn’t felt in years.
