There's something... that has taken root in the collective consciousness.

It can't be seen, it can't be touched; but it's there.

An idea, a possibility, a locked-away doubt.

For some time now, people have been unable to go about their normal lives.

Something stops them.

Something completely absorbs them.

They remain still, motionless... paralyzed.

Not out of fear, not out of danger.

Because of a question. A macabre trend... a mystery reduced to a box.

Yesterday ceases to matter, the future disappears, and the present...

freezes.

The world holds its breath, searching for an answer to a question that no one cared about...

until someone decided to make it go viral.

Doubt becomes obsession. Obsession disguises itself as intelligence... but it's not thought.

It's noise.

Humanity paralyzed by a metaphor, staring at a box;

Imagining what's inside;

A dead cat?

A live cat?

Alive and dead at the same time? Mystery, paradox… science…?

Actually… the box contains human stupidity swinging in a hammock.
