imagine being transported to the carboniferous period instantly… the atmosphere would probably suffocate you in minutes but you’d see an earth so alien that you’d probably go into shock from the sheer terror… idk it fucks me up to think about it too much. like a time-induced thalassophobia episode. megachronophobia? fear of the remote past? idk. messed up, man…
