    Nope.

    The question is as nonsensical as “what if you’re on the intersection of latitude and longitude?”, as if longitude only existed on the equator and latitude on the Prime Meridian. All points on Earth have longitude and latitude, and are the intersections of their respective local meridian and local circle of latitude (aka “parallel”). Not necessarily the Prime Meridian and the equator, that’s only for “point zero” of Earth. These lines are often in the center of maps and can be thought of as “axes” but axes only mark values, they aren’t the quantities the values represent.

    If you’re at the intersection of time and space, it means you are anywhere in spacetime: you exist, will exist, or have existed at some place in the universe.

      You are right, and therefore there is no complete answer. I have just given one possible Interpretation.

        Yes but it should be explained to OP that even though there is an axis labeled “time”, time exists outside that line. The label does not say “here is time” but “this line shows how many seconds away from the reference point any point is based on how far it is in this direction on the diagram”

        If I were a planet, I would think of my center as that point.

        But for humans, who live on the surface, it is on the surface, and often inside their own country. Selfishness beats geometry :)
