I wish I had a physical "Undo" button I could use in real life and not just on my computer (sopuli.xyz)

Granted. Every time you hit Undo your current timeline is destroyed, making you the most prolific mass murderer in the universe by a wide margin. A new timeline is created for you each time, but no matter what you try, each new timeline is slightly worse than the previous one, with your changed actiona only leading to worse consequences.

Yeah, but some of those timelines had it coming...
