    So now the pizza is never eaten :(

    Edit: Now that I think about it, won’t it get colder over time? Omg I’m not going to continue I’m falling down a hole that way

      I would argue since it’s in this loop, it can’t really change its temperature. Otherwise the loop wouldn’t close. And since also it adjusts to room temperature, it has be room temperature from the beginning all the time to avoid temporal paradoxes. According to the same logic, it doesn’t crumble.

        In panel 2, the dude has a pizza in his/her hand, and he/she has time to say “Now I have a free snack!” You don’t think the temperature of the pizza would drop by even 0.1 degrees in that time?

        If this object is permanently warmer than its surroundings, surely it can be used as a means to generate energy.

          No, my whole point is that since it can’t cool down without temporal paradox, it has to already have room temperature and be already cold

            I would argue that there are infinite timelines of a room temperature “pizza slice” in various stages of decay, and eventually new reactions in the final two panels. If it reach room temperature, which it must, there is bacteria on that 'za.

            (Edited for brevity)

              So from the perspective of the pizza slice, it travels thru time and creates new timelines on the way, allowing even for different reactions from the people, for example once it’s mouldy, they won’t want it anymore and it stays in one timeline where it will rot eventually.

              But: how did it start? I tried to avoid that question but making it timeless with no beginning and end, and no change to it what so ever, which comes with problems on their own. But giving it time, you also have to give it a start. I’m even fine with no end but you need a start. How hot was it in the first iteration?

    the pizza, being in an infinite time loop, would eventually mold if it were a normal slice of pizza. probably for the best that he didnt get to eat it…
