I experience existential dread in three situations. The first is when I meet people. Fat penguin," I blurt out. It breaks the ice. The second situation is someone asking me to list the 10 funniest things I've seen on the internet. The third is realising that, by 2030, climate change will be irreversible and that more than 1m species face extinction. Which means the fat penguin won't be the only one breaking the ice, if it even lives to do so.

But that doesn't matter right now. What does matter is compiling content that loops endlessly in my head. So here's me addressing existential dread No 2. Enjoy.
