To what effect though? I could go back to 1984 and say "hey Apple you're gonna make an iPhone" but I have no idea how they do it. Maybe say something about graphene or CRISPR? Hey Larry and Sergei, you need to make a search engine that prioritizes links that are on other pages, and hey, you need to charge people for specific words that are searched.

Maybe just go back in time and register all the URLs that will get used. Sorry, there's no Facebook anymore but Yearbook is full of crap.

Could always just buy the stock and let them do things on their own, I don't need to tell Jeff Bezos how to make Amazon, I just need to buy $10,000 of stock in 1997. Also, for drug discovery it would be easy, since a lot of the actual work is figuring out and validating a good target. If that is done you could form a startup that controls like 30 blockbuster drugs.

Also, I could probably recreate a close enough cover of The Downward Spiral from memory or something and become a rockstar.

With that said, I would probably take the 10m for pure profit while keeping my family, if I had no kids it would be smash time travel. I had way more friends in Elementary School, Jr. High, and High School than I do now, it was great, in hindsight.

FLAWED
INTUITION



Toilet Rascal
I've thought about if I went back into time with what I know and the first thing I've wondered would be what would my emotional state be? A 6 year old kid who knows everything? Like yeah, I know everything but if I fall and scrape my arm am I gonna cry like crazy?

I'd struggle to go back because I feel like I'd miss my pets, weirdly. I don't remember the days I adopted them and also I feel like I'd create a butterfly effect that means my pets wouldn't be born.

Until March 1st, yes. We had one last week, and Braks just made this one today. Very drat good.

She found a savory boudin filled, étouffée topped king cake for sale on Facebook. As much as I like boudin and étouffée, that just sounds wrong.

I saw Spider-Man today and it was fantastic, but now I miss/am nostalgic for the Tobey and Andrew movies so I’m gonna have to do a re-watch of those soon.

End credit spoiler: I’m not sure if they’re icing out Tom Hardy but if they’re making a new Venom character it would be hilarious if bartender Dany Rojas is the new host and I’m there for it

Also speaking of Spider-Man and timelines, you’re all fools if you go back to 6 and plonk all your money down on Amazon the timeline will be different and you’ll look like an idiot when Amazon flounders, but at least the world will be better in that timeline!

Even just thinking of going back in time and living in a world where my kid doesn’t exist makes me profoundly sad.

I know that isn’t the point of the exercise but it’s like not even a question for me.

Came to the exact same conclusion everyone with kids did. It's the one thing you couldn't attempt to recreate with any degree of accuracy.

Still, the thought exercise of what would you do if given all that foresight as an advantage is an interesting one.

Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

Best I got was 15, but the first 7-8 were not only very easy but also stuff right in my wheelhouse, including Furherbunker, American Dad, Zoe Kravitz, some Jimmy Stewart movie, and the Gallipoli campaign. I had another that went 11 that had started with Eddie Van Halen, the battle of Passchendaele, and a couple of easy ones about literature.
