In this series, patron Lord of All Chrises has us attempting to bypass our linear human perceptions in order to create beings that experience time all at once. We review the challenges and implications of dealing with such omnipresent entities, try to wrap our minds around the concept of time, debate the nature of funfetti, and as always, theorize about Daniel's immortal lich status.
