    But if your brain is getting reset, then really your reality is, so its not so much of a loop as infinite new realities.

      but what if you’re actually a slave? forced to work each day anew, with no memory of the previous day. i wouldn’t call that “your infinite new realities” because those realities aren’t really yours, as they don’t provide you a place for you at all.

        I don’t understand this part:

        those realities aren’t really yours, as they don’t provide you a place for you at all.

        My point is, if I go to sleep tonight and time loops back around to this morning, and I don’t remember any of today, then did today really happen? It didn’t “happen” in any meaningful way.

        It doesn’t matter whether I entertained a dozen nubile virgins or toiled as a slave.
