Earn your ticket on a time machine.
Time Machines. We’ve all heard about them. But they are not invented yet. Some say that the fact that time machines have never been observed coming back in time to them is evidence that they will never be invented. I say, “Pfft. Like time travellers would ever want to vist these naysayers.”
Here is the truth about time machines. Of course they will be invented. But they are not going to come back in time to see us without a good reason. So if you want to go to the future, give them a reason. I’ve know been a bit vauge, so allow me to outline a specific strategy for you here.
First we need to identify time travellers’ motivations. Who will invent time machines? Sorry, H.G. Wells; it’s not gonna be one guy in a shed. You need research teams and money. Well, an oppressive future government will be the most likely to have access to these resources. Okay. Why would they come back in time? Well obviously they won’t try much to change history; that’s already been established to be crazy, dangerous, and unlikely to be effective. So they need to grab resources that will have no further effect on history, but still have potential use. For instance, they will probably try to recuit retired great minds from the Information Era.
I think you can see where I’m going here. They will need great ‘bloggers to act as Information Command Officers to control the minds of heavily overpopulated sectors of the future with InfoBlasts. So that means if you want to see the future you need to start ‘blogging your ass of now so that you can be remembered and thus land yourself a nice cushy position in the eventual Information Buearacracy.
Now that I’ve written this, they probably won’t let me in out of spite, but that’s okay. I don’t write this for myself. I write this for the world.
kthxbye.
