    When people ask things like “what mundane superpower would you have” this is basically my go to. I want to operate my brain like a computer, search for stuff, delete stuff I don’t want, put it to sleep whenever I want, etc.

      So many books and movies and games I’d love to delete and experience again.

      But then, it gets kinda complicated, doesn’t it.

      If I delete something I love there’s chance I might not love it again even when I see it, because I’m a different person at a different point in my life.

      Even worse, if I delete something that had big influence on the person I became, shaped my thoughts and feelings, continues even now to do so, does that change who I am?
