I can't see how this all plays out.
Sure you do. Everyone dies. That's always been how it is. Only question now is whether we can find some way to not all go at once.
If we do, then civilization dies. Everything humanity has ever done goes away.
Well, at least there won't be anyone who misses it," Amos said, and sighed. "You're overthinking this, Cap'n. You got now and you got the second your lights go out. Meantime is the only time there is. All that matters is what we do during it.
I just want to go out knowing that things will be okay without me. That it all keeps going.
That you're not the one who dropped the ball.
Or maybe," Amos said, "you're not that important and it ain't up to you to fix the universe?
You always know how to cheer me up.
