Well, there’s a theory that the Big Bang created both our universe which has an excess of matter and is moving forward through time; and, in the same instant, a mirror universe that has an excess of antimatter and is moving backward through time. So there’s a mirror-you who, in a way, lived billions of years before you.
The next question then is: is this a cyclical event?

In October 2020 he joined in signing a letter stating: “Given his astonishing success in his first term, we believe that Donald Trump is the candidate most likely to foster the promise and prosperity of America.”

Alright then.

Relevant quote from Carl Sagan’s “The Demon-Haunted World”:

[The 1939 New York World’s Fair’s president] Grover Whalen - a former corporate executive, New York City police chief in a time of unprecedented police brutality, and public relations innovator […] had convinced Stalin and Mussolini to build lavish national pavilions. (He later complained about how often he had been obliged to give the fascist salute.) The level of the exhibits, as one designer described it, was pitched to the mentality of a twelve-year-old.

Too real.

Ray Ban them.

I thought this would be about the 2022 movie “Fall.” Quite haunting, that one…

At a first glance at the top panel, I thought the girl has a really big mustache.

Obelix pants? Really?

I’ve bought new tires from all sorts of places and people, and nobody ever asked for my license plate number. Is this an American thing?
In fact, these days, I simply order tires online and tell the company to deliver them to one of their many “partners,” i.e. car repair shops. They notify me when the delivery is done, I leave the car there overnight and collect it the next morning. That’s all there is to it.

You mean the Moops.

We’re on the very edge of a new age of feudalism which, as we speak, is being ushered in by murderous fascists and their axiomatic drive to start civil wars.
A small cabal of billionaires totally stopped caring, or at least pretending to do so, about the common folks. They really want all the money and all the power in the world, and it’s now within their reach.
The “opposition” is either complacent or terrified.

That was disturbing.

Average redditor speak.

Suicide (as in: the band) was formed in 1971, and I’d argue that for more than 30 years, their sound was ahead of its time.
Here’s Cheree, guess in which year this song was originally recorded.

He hid it, in the one place he knew he could hide something: his ass. Five long years, he wore this watch up his ass. Then when he died of dysentery, he gave me the watch. I hid this uncomfortable piece of metal up my ass for two years. Then, after seven years, I was sent home to my family. And now, little man, I give the watch to you.

I’m reminded of “Johnny Mnemonic,” the 1995 movie. From IMDB:

In 2021, society is driven by a virtual Internet, which has created a degenerative effect called “nerve attenuation syndrome” or NAS. Megacorporations control much of the world, intensifying the class hostility already created by NAS.

It seems to me that AI is the real “virtual internet” here.
Although rather unrelated to the topic at hand, I also liked this quote:

… [Henry] Rollins, who is uninterested in science fiction, joined the cast because he liked the film’s focus on an upcoming disadvantaged underclass.

WDYM, did you never get so giddy from eating junk food that you had to take a nap in the freezer to cool down?
