Instant karma. Weighted based on intent. E.g. If CEO cuts benefits to improve his stock value, then his balls explode. If a driver accidentally cuts someone off but feels bad about it, a full mosquito hits the windshield.
Karma is real.
Life isn't possible
One free wish for any and every person who achieves something truly outstanding for mankind as whole (only positive achievements).
Maybe also for a free "weaker" wish for personal achievements, like completing one's dream hobby project.
All sentient beings have photographic memories and, through DNA, they can store and recall all of their previous ancestors' memories. All the way back to their oldest sentient ancestor.
Basically Assassin’s Creed
Sounding like Richard Rahl and The Sword of Truth now. (Please don't hate me the first 3-4 books were good...)
"Let's see what scientists say about time if I remove entropy from the equation."

Silphium was recently rediscovered so it's no longer considered extinct just highly endangered.
Aside from that, I would make it so that instead of having mental illness you would have magical powers.
Schizophrenic? Nope you just talk to the Dead. Adhd? Nope, you're an elemental wizard. Bipolar? Nope, you're either a healer or a necromancer. Depressed? Nope, you're just low on mana. (Major depression means that you're suffering from a curse) Psychotic? Nope, you're suffering a mana storm Narcissistic? Nope, you are an illusionist. Autistic? Nope, you're an enchanter.

I'm open to interpretation.
The sky is teal, rather than blue.
gravity is now a personal choice
Pi = 3.
I think this one might end up winning.
It would change the topographical nature of the universe. We would probably have to exist in like the 3.1415th dimension or something to make it work.
Fuck it, I'm in. Can't be any worse than regular 3 dimensions.
You son of a bitch
Cats speak french, except in any situation where they can be recorded or transcribed, or when a french speaker can hear them. They also aren't very good at speaking french, but it's impossible for anyone to know that.
Greed is removed from the list of possible emotions/personality traits.
