I’d go back in time to fifteen minutes ago when I had my earphones
Like fuck dude
I just had it and I can’t find the fucking things anywhere
edit: found it. If that was my only time travel opportunity, I’d take it
You can’t find them because you from 15 minutes in the future took them, duh.
Dude…we’re a few days away from trump having a too close to call election in which he’s made open statements about being a facist dictator if elected.
The price of food now requires a second mortgage. Mortgages that millenials don’t have, because they could never have a house.
4 years ago MURDER HORNETS migrated to America, and it wasn’t even in the top 10 of our worst problems in 2020.
What part of ANY of this makes you think we’re in the GOOD timeline???
I’m assuming that they’re Bluetooth, as if they were wired, the problem couldn’t really come up.
If they’re still paired to a device, crank the volume up and try playing something loud enough that you can hear it.
For Bluetooth devices that are powered on and responding to queries for nearby Bluetooth devices, you can also try asking a device that can pair with Bluetooth devices and show signal strength, like a laptop, to query for nearby devices, can kind of use to “home in” on the device.
This is pretty much how I see those who romanticize the past.
I want to be spoiled in an old school relationship.
You want your voting rights revoked and getting beaten up by your drunk husband, which is then your fault somehow? Not really my kink but if you insist.
For a very, very, long time it was considered proper to hit your family, as the man of the house, to keep everyone in order. If the patriarch was hitting you, you needed discipline, this was a god ordained arraignment, so what were you doing against god to deserve this wrath? Domestic violence was crazy high compared to today, as late as the 1990’s. Also drinking rates have fallen greatly, especially since the 18th century.
Being a woman in these romanticized times meant you couldn’t have any sort of credit, you couldn’t hold a bank account, you couldn’t vote, violence towards you, from your family was not criminal. Until the 1900s women couldn’t legally own, or rent, property, except under specific conditions (inheritance, gift from their husband, tenement housing built specifically to house women alone, that sort of thing). Even though it was legalized int he early 1900s, it was also legal to discriminate against women, in that way, until the 1970s, in a lot of places. It was far more common for men to drink, and for men to beat their families, and they had few, to no, legal ways to create independence from their husband. So they were stuck there.
The only good old times were those before mankind started to mess up the entire planet.
Many were increasingly of the opinion that they’d all made a big mistake coming down from the trees in the first place, and some said that even the trees had been a bad move, and that no-one should ever have left the oceans.
Cutting down the trees was out next biggest mistake. For example, the Europeans who colonized the US cut down 93% of the trees they found. They clear cut forests of giant oaks and blackwalnut trees. And we replaced all of that natural beauty with asphalt and endless urban sprawl.
Mankind’s been screwing things up since the start.
The Sahara Desert used to be verdant
Very few time travel stories every address this and other detriments to the past. For most of history, the past has been a pretty horrible place compared to today unless you are rich and usually male. Even you are those, you don’t have to go far back to be victims of disease or injury commonly cured today. Depending on what part of the world you are in, and how far you are going back, your skin color, spoken language, or physical features may also put you in a world of hurt.
We still have a long way to go to be better, but as crazy as it seems, right now, is a really really good time for most of us compared to most of history with regard to freedom and health.
The only way I want to time travel is like…looking through a window to watch it.
Actually being there???
Fuck that, I like being alive and not not alive.
I wouldn’t mind the chance to occasionally go back in the past and talk to long lost loved ones, let them know I miss them and that everything’s alright.
Even if it was just limited to a time bubble and nothing I did in the past would change the present or future.
“Aww. They’re just misunderstood invaders. We don’t actually know their culture.”
One side of my family was all farmers. I don’t know much about that life, but I believe the youngest girl would be raising those two babies (while cooking, cleaning, doing laundry, etc), and those two boys would be working the field with the mother.
You don’t need to go back in time for that.
Just go visit the Amish!
From what I’ve learn (mainly from mainstream media) I respect their choice to maintain thier culture and lifestyle. Something to be said from having no rat race and living a simple life off of the land.
