Business is as usual, because that's how business usually is. Is it possible for there to be a universe where the future isn't business-as-usual, for whatever business is usual for that universe?

Hmmm, perhaps a universe of true pure randomness, it could be said that no business is usual. But then, you'd certainly expect the continuation of random business, so you could say that randomness and unpredictability are themselves business as usual. Maybe not the way we'd use the term, though?

Part of me wants to be immortal, part of me finds the whole thing too fucking complicated. Even a extra 100 years.

The future only really looks fun with a curveball, and if it gets any curvier it won't be very human.
