Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.

RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

You know there are telescopes, microscopes, to see far and small objects. I wish I have a chronoscope. See into the past (not future tho, that's a whole can of worms), especially my personal past. (sh.itjust.works)

The primary reason is to explore my actual life. You know, like I wanna watch myself being born in 3rd person view. I wanna watch my parent's reaction to me being conceived. (I'll skip the actual conceiving... that's too weird lol).

Like I'd probably fast forward a lot, but I wanna like see what I was doing.

What the heck was I even doing as a kid, how did I even pass the time? I have snippets but its a very blurry memory with blackholes. How did I managed to like... just exist without internet?

Find missing pieces, lost memories.

Watching myself used to be able to just be... happy...

I might have a self-obsession, memory-obsession, something.

How much do y'all remember about yourself? Would y'all want to explore your own past with a hypothetical "chronoscope"?

That's called keeping a diary.

Jokes aside, all you'd need for this is one powerful telescope and FTL.

I hate my younger self for not keeping one.

But then again, my shitty older brother would've read it so... yeah... mom also love to do helicopter parent things...
