tl;dr - Don't use renpy.pause with hard=True.
That being said, fuck pauses. I've attached a file to re-assign renpy.pause to a do-nothing fuck-off function. It should work in any/all Ren'Py games, but beware that some developers wrote their code needed pauses for certain kinds of mini-games. I don't know if it applies to this game. I don't know if developers realize how seriously fucking infuriating pause is to a vast majority of VN-players.
Edit: This solves Ren'Py pauses. As for dialog pauses, it sets an environmental variable (only for the game) to skip the timer values. But note that due to the way Ren'Py processes a dialog of text such as "But during your journey around the world... {w=1.0} you didn't meet any human being alive." Ren'Py processes them as multiple frames. In this case, 2, because there is one section of delay, so you'll see this presented as two frames. Each frame process happens at your refresh rate, so it may appear to long idiotic abuses of pause as type-writer effect due to the nature of pausing. I'm thinking about writing a script to intercept this shit and strip out any Dialogue Tags to prevent it altogether (or to re-class DialogueTextTags).
Edit: It may also prevent the CUT inventory from showing due to a stupid as fuck pause call right after it. *eyeroll and sigh* If that's the case, because of the way they poorly wrote these interactions, you may need to go without. That area should be attached to the G screen. I'd suggest waiting on this game until the dev fixes stuff.
