I'd either be honest and put Star Trek: First Contact, or as a joke, put Joker, to see how people react.

I'd never seen Lolita, though.

i've only read parts of the book

although i've been meaning to

beautifully written

Is that the one where we think the guy is preying on the young girl, but it's actually the other way around?

"The novel is notable for its controversial subject: the protagonist and unreliable narrator, a middle-aged literature professor under the pseudonym Humbert Humbert, is obsessed with a 12-year-old girl, Dolores Haze, with whom he becomes sexually involved after he becomes her stepfather."

Oh. 🤔

That novel must have been published 50+ years ago, because there's no way any publisher would touch that with a ten-foot pole in 2020.

oh no yeah

it's fucking old

but a classic

also russian

Ah. Russian.

What’s everybody up to?

self reflection

I'm watching the Gemini Man and doing research on changing current US policies, writing a document with recommended different approaches.

Are you doing research on how to change current US politics, or doing research on US politics that are always changing?

Establishing a recommended change

Ohh. There's so much that needs to change.

Yep, can't change it all, but I can focus on some things

Aye.

Military, Education, Research and Nasa, Transportation and Infrastructure, and Medical

I feel like NASA keeps getting screwed over, especially with the funding.

I feel like NASA should be getting more funding, because the solutions to a lot of our problems may very well lie in space exploration.

they need about 10 times their current funding

Yes. I want to see humans leaving the solar system in my lifetime. 😦

we don't have the technology for that type of travel, at least I have yet to see evidence of it

you'd need quantum computing on a large scale, not to mention the ability to produce enough power to move and manipulate the entire EM spectrum
