I’d go back and burn that fucking Almanac…
- Erase fasciasts
- Install utopia & a mix of solar punk and star trek like ideals
- Install democracy everywhere
- Save Harambee
- Time Travel and observe real history from the safety of my time machine
- Undo Brexit
- Use butterfly effect to make me female but have my life be the same
Insert obligatory “still cis tho”
I’d go back and kick my own ass for many reasons but mostly for not asking out that girl that one time I was like 65% sure she was into me. Still can’t let that go. What a little punk ass b.
Go to June 14, 1946, Jamaica Hospital in Queens, New York. No reason.
Shoot John Wilkes Booth before he got into the theater.
I would go back to September 1st 2001 and make sure a certain new yorker was in a certain building on a very specific date.
Tell my grandfather to get his heart checked out. He died too young. I’d love to see just how much sense he’d beat into my father, who is a complete garbage can of a person.
So many dead billionaires and political figures… just like… a ludicrous amount.
What’s a billionaire?
A worthless parasite that devours and destroys the lives of working people.
I think they were making a joke from the perspective of the future the OC made.
First, I would SLEEP SO FUCKING MUCH
Well, I can think of a couple US presidents from the 20th century that could use a good showcase of the future they caused by throwing Americans under the bus. Either that, or just clone their voices, fake messages that incriminate their actions and get them impeached, release them publicly via distribution to all major TV news outlets discretely, and watch what happens. If nothing else, just getting rid of them completely might be a solution as well, in hopes their vice president doesn’t make the same mistakes.
That, or go back to summer 2024 and tell the guy at that rally to aim a little to the left (or right) depending on which ear he shot.
Time travel.
Come on, can’t ask this kind of question without giving us the rules.
Paradox free? Does the future change? Do I go as my current self or is age adjusted? Do I keep my current knowledge and memories and skills? Do I get to go back? Do I get multiple tries to get the optimal outcome?
So many variables with these kinds of hypotheticals, I can’t give you any meaningful answer without general outlines of the rules. Can’t play the game if I don’t know the rules.
Do you over analyse every question someone asks you ?
Yes. Thank you for noticing.
Taking this way too seriously. Just take the other responses as examples.
I mean, that’s what makes it fun? Do you play games without rules too? In my mind, it’s not worth much thought if there’s no rules to it. Otherwise you could just say “I will go into the future where they’ve invented how to become a god and then come back with my godlike powers and do whatever I want.”
it’s the wishing-for-more-wishes kind of boring thing to do. Boundaries and restrictions breed creativity. That’s what’s fun for me.
Sometimes this is how other people have fun with it
Already did it.
Find Nigel Farage in the field after he survived his 2014 plane crash and… change that.
Possibly saving the country from Brexit even getting to referendum status, and if it did, possibly changing the result. And then maybe preventing the revolving door Tory governments that fucked up the initial Covid response, since most of what they’ve done over the last decade has been to try and swing voters away from UKIP/Reform rather then actually do things that are good fit the country as a whole.
A lot of slaughter, if I’m being honest
