This is pretty much how I see those who romanticize the past.
The only good old times were those before mankind started to mess up the entire planet.
Mankind's been screwing things up since the start.
The Sahara Desert used to be verdant
And whom
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
While I'm not a professional, I suspect help with management of your ADHD may be more appropriate than Time travel...
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.
Found em
they were on my desk under an old empty box of antidepressants
yeeted it
progress
Plot twist, you're wearing them, and having a brain fart.
You underestimate my grasp of my own stupidity.
I checked my ears three times before posting that
I used to lose mine until I glued them onto a headband and used some paracord to tether it to my phone case.
They're against the side of your computer
"Aww. They're just misunderstood invaders. We don't actually know their culture."
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.

disease might be a particular issue beyond just that. Last thing you want is to give the past COVID or modern strains of the flu or whatever else, and in reverse, you dont want to bring back smallpox
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.
Man, I remember the past like it was yesterday.
Anyone who would act like that couldn’t even hack it in a developing country today let alone going back in time. Remember, a dystopia is just a third-world country but with white people and that’s different because, uh, reasons.
That does kinda depend on the nature of the dystopia to be fair. Like, the ones that are just "a stratified society where the poor live in the dirt", or "an authoritarian regime", sure, but some dystopian fiction relies on tech that doesnt even exist to run.
Sure but that’s just a bit of colour for the world that sets the genre. The meat of it is all there regardless.
Reminds me of a YouTube video giving thorough advice on what you should do if you would ever time travel back to medieval Europe.
One of the biggest hurdles would be language. Even 50 years ago people sounded different. You go back 200, you would sound weird to the others. It would be disorienting. Might end up in jail or worse. Language is an organic thing that constantly changes.
And if you travel into the future, your shits gonna be all fucked up and people will think you talk like a fag.
this is a great video. I think you should post it in a community.
I'll keep my organic farming and connection to nature, thanks.
Though I'd prefer to go back a few million years before humans even evolved.
don't know why you're getting downvoted for this. it's possible to be connected to nature and not be a regressive society.
Yeah, thanks, that comic was a little too black and white in 50% of the panels - acknowledging women's rights and their role in society and abolishing child labor doesn't mean that we did not process the shit out of food and invented the unholiest abominations as substitute for actual nourishment, or that it's suddenly healthy to live in a concrete block after spending 10 hours in cloned cubicle #7.
Good news! With our new work from home policy you get to stay in your concrete block all day!
Also, in nomadic neolithic societies women were treated as equals. Agriculture was a trap.
Ah, so you want to travel to the only time in history where humans weren't making life miserable for other humans?
All the technology and progress in the world isn't gonna help if yr sat on by aristocrats.
