    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.

                          First, I take a long rest. Then, I might nap a bit.

                                    I got a house full of books, notebooks to write my partners notes, and sleep. If it seems to last more than I don't know, a month? Probably walk to an Ocean, then see if one can walk or drive across one. Try and figure out why time seems stopped.
