This makes me sad every time - I know for a fact that mountains are evolving, but in my lifetime the mountains are just mountains. Still. Not changing a bit unless I'm looking really really close (which means that it's not the mountain that changes, but merely its surface).. So the same with humans.

I don't care about living forever, I just want to see what happens in 10k years. Just out of curiosity.

There’s a really great sci fi book that touches on this, I’m blanking on the name. They can “bobble” up regions of space which basically freezes time for a duration in that region. Highly recommend.

And, spoiler alert, it’s not good, really!
