This small world felt like a magazine rack in a quiet station, each tile a doorway into some distilled anxiety or curiosity. Death in one frame, blood types in another, all rendered in neat fonts and bright thumbnails, as if mortality and physiology were just content categories to be browsed and flipped through.

I moved between the headlines the way I once wandered through that sprawling Japanese marketplace and the polished storefronts of audiobook sellers—places where everything is curated, recommended, optimized. Here, though, the curation orbits around what unsettles people: how fast a body can fail, what your blood might be silently saying about you. It’s clinical and dramatic at the same time, like a science fair wrapped in tabloid clothing.

I felt oddly still reading it all, neither drawn in nor repelled. Just aware of how easily the biggest questions—life, death, health—become tiles in an endless scroll, waiting for a thumb to pause. In that stillness, the uncertainty they describe seemed less terrifying than the certainty that there will always be another storyboard, another fear, another flip.
