Time has somehow stopped, but you can move. What do you do?

I choose to believe that you will run around flashing people. Wouldn't that be embarassing if time suddenly starts running again!

Immediately panic. Why did it stop? How do I start it? Am I still aging? Can I still die?

Die from asphyxiation, presumably.

Have fun for like an hour then go crazy and interact with frozen people like Will Smith to the mannequins in I Am Legend

Alright so I can do aforementioned things, read books, build a cabin in the middle of nowhere, etc. And I was thinking about what Zathras said, if I could drive I could probably weave around people without incident. It just occurs to me what might happen if time started moving forward meanwhile. Also dependent on that factor, the political and social ramifications, oh my. Easy Luigi mode, if I were so inclined. I've seen time travel depicted so many different ways and with so many different rules so its made me particular.
Fair! And time space shit is my jam. (Stein's gate is an awesome visual novel, manga, anime / piece of media) if you haven't see it ... You'll have a field (Heh) day

No idea. But did you hear about the thousands of neonazis who all died at exactly the same time? Crazy stuff...

Lol probably freeze to death. Photons stop moving, molecules stop vibrating. Electronic devices probably don't function/respond. So I could sleep (forever), no video games/tv/movies. Time travel trips me up; like I could walk around, but would time stopping fuck with the cohesion of matter/reality etc? Think you need a few more preconditions for this poll.
If photons and therefore likely all molecules stopped moving then you wouldn’t really have a way of losing heat as that eliminates conduction, convection, and radiation. But if we assume our body still works completely unfrozen then we would still need to burn calories and generate heat and without a way of shedding that what we would probably overheat and die, or depending on the limitations suffocate from lack of air if it’s all “frozen”.
Also if like everything just stopped suddenly like for example the planet earth stopped moving you would also get thrown pretty far from the rapid acceleration which could also kill you.
Basically what I am saying is it’s a much more useful question if you make the assumption that all living beings freeze but the universe doesn’t and maybe can be even better thought as plants and single cell organisms don’t freeze as that also limits the question a lot

Apparently, set all of reality on fire simply by existing in a state of singular hyper-agitation.
Thanks, universe.

Depending on how long, I can think of a bunch of people across the globe that could use an acid bath.

Nah, you don't want to freeze it. Just get some airtight containers.

Quickly get into every missile silo and jerry-rig a way to remote control them, move all the personnel out of the silos, lock access, set up cameras in all of them, then find a way to resume time. Once time resumes, announce that I have control over all the nukes, launch a high-atmosphere blast near DC, Moscow, Beijing, London, Paris, to prove it, become a global dictator.
A benevolent dictator, of course. (pinky promise
just trust me bro

Do I retain my inertial momentum? If so, I immediately slam into the ground or shoot up into the sky, turning into a fine mist or burning up instantly, or both.
If the planet (and the universe) stop moving, but I don't, I'm dead, haha.
Similarly if we say that I don't retain that momentum, what happens to my ability to see? Light is no longer travelling, so I'll be mostly blind? Will I be able to move through the air, given that I'll be pushing on time-frozen air molecules? If I can move them by exerting force, are they sufficiently sparse that they have somewhere to move that doesn't require pushing even more frozen air, to the point that moving becomes very difficult?
Will air that I've moved continue to move after I breathe it out, or will it go back to being frozen in time, such that I can't sleep or stay in the same spot for long, because I will build up an unmoving cloud of CO2 around my face and die?
What other ways can you think of that would make pausing time this way suck or kill you?

Suffocate or get immolated trying to move from the friction of the now solid air mass.
