Importantly, these quotes from War and Peace imply that doom-scrolling is not a social media fad: Uncertainty, misery, and death are just one step beyond that border line, which is similar to the line separating the living from the dead. What’s there, too? Who’s there?- that meadow, that tree, that sunlit roof over there? One wants to know, but nobody does. In the same way that you will eventually have to discover what is on the other side of death, you both fear and yearn to cross that line because you know that it must be done eventually.

When a collapsing chimney fell from above and killed a friend, Francesco had moved aside in the street to allow the companion to urinate against a wall. “I never forget Casanova’s remark,” Diderot wrote. Recognize that the future is completely dark, and move aside to make room for someone who needs to urinate.
