Pretty much the title. I’ve been watching more realistic super hero shows like The Boys and Invincible. The reoccurring themes is that with great power comes great immorality.

I think it’s easy for us normies to respect other people and their property because there are clear consequences for violating social norms. But what would the average person do if they had super powers?

    I mean, it probably depends on how happy you are with your life.

    Depending on how it works i’d probably just use time stop to lose less time from sleeping. There’s a lot of ways to improve your life with time stop before ever delving into morals.

      What most people fail to realize, though, is that if you used time stop to sleep you would certainly have more productive hours “awake” – but at the cost of reducing your remaining life span in the time-wise world by one third. You’d still be aging while you sleep.

        Though I don’t think that’s too big a loss when you’re using it to sleep. If you used time stop for something that was both exhausting and wasting your time, that’d probably be worse honestly.

        It would certainly become noticeable after awhile since as you said, it’s one third of your life.
