    Hey this really amazing thing just happened to me and my friends group. It was world changing. Half of those friends don’t give a shit and never respond to text messages again… DECADES PASS … No one bothers to write any of it down. A major power predictably displaces everyone in the region to quell quixotic zealotry. No one can find work, they are homesick; outcasts; gutter fodder of the diaspora.

    In reality it is more like, someone sees a Craigslist job post about a religious startup. A few dudes write a plausible fan fiction. They even copy each other’s homework like primary schoolchildren, errors and all; not even intentional obfuscation errors, the real deal little kid kind. Their works all fit into a prequel timeline niche. A COUPLE HUNDRED YEARS PASS Fan fiction universe is fucking god mode. Why? Because people are fucking stupid. Humans are sub sentient. There was no separation of church and state. This was as political as it was emotional, lack of fundamental logic skills, and survivalism. I don’t believe any fucker that tells me some unhappenable story decades later, and especially when the story can’t be corroborated except by his homework copying buddies getting put up in peoples houses and not needing to work because he wrote a plausible—to a largely illiterate population—fan fiction.
