Nihilists on Twitter may disagree but the New Year isn’t just another day. A birthday isn’t just another day. The universe is laid out cyclically so I one ought to live in a cycle.

But not nothing else on the planet lives like that. The morning resets and trees reset and the stars reset and Hailey’s Comet will be back into view for eighteen minutes 700 years from now.   But it does come back around. The universe is a Radiohead fan: everybody leaves when they get the chance and this is my chance. Take the chance to start again at one.
