    A kid, a squid, and a radioactive source are placed in a sealed box. If an internal monitor detects freshness (i.e. a Kracken user getting destroyed), the squid is kid, releasing the squid that squids the kid. The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum freshness implies that after a while, the kid is simultaneously a kid and a squid. Yet, when one looks in the box, one sees the kid as either a kid or a squid, not both a kid and a squid. This poses the question of when exactly quantum superposition ends and reality collapses into one possibility or the other.

      @redenchilada Also why the hell can't the kid/squid observe its own gorram quantum state!?

          @redenchilada And with all of that reking the kraken doesn't observe its state?

            @scriba Once the Kracken shows up, its state is "dead".
