    Nothin. Anything I’d want to do would cost money, and money is the thing I dont have.

    Maybe speed things along if nothing else.

    Tbh I think if this genuinely happened and I just found out right now, I would just start walking and not stopping. I would think I’d be the most mindful and alert I have ever been in my life and I wouldn’t want to waste that. I also imagine I would also probably be extremely nice to everyone. Like someone’s walking in the rain or something and I’d just hand them the coat I was wearing for them to keep. It would look really weird lol but I think that’s the kind of hyper-selflessness that you’d just do without even a thought if you knew you were about to die.

    Thanks for asking this question btw it’s very intriguing. It makes me wonder if it’s even remotely possible to live each day like it’s your last y’know.

    Convince my spouse to stay home from work and do all her favorite activities, basically give her a really awesome day to remember me by.

    Finally start smoking pipe tobacco. I’ve been putting it off as I’m sure it will give me mouth cancer.

    Triple-check that our mortage is paid off in the event of my death, so that my wife and children will have a place to live after I (sole breadwinner) am gone.

      Honestly why not? You’ll be dead, what does it matter what you do in your final hours? I’d just carry on as was. If you’re religious, then death is just the next step, and your last day won’t mean much. If you’re not, you’re about to cease existing, what would it matter to you then.

      Just relax, eat chips, and doom scroll your way to death

    Maybe hire a hooker. Feed my dog a steak. Write a will. Test drive a hellcat. Hire another hooker.

    I’d do it in that order too

    Well im on the other side of the country from my wife. Also 8 hours from the nearest airport to get home.

    I think i wouls drive the great Australian bite and write out my feelings and how much i love mt wife and friends, then sit on the bottom of Australia and watch the sun set off those cliffs then set the text to send after i die, (since i cant tell anyone ahead of time)

    It would be lonely but i think cathartic too, just a chance to decompress from the world before the forever sleep
