Helicopters make me nervous. I'm a regular flyer on a commercial jet and am fine during even intense turbulence but I've been on one helicopter ride and was shaking like a leaf for the duration and about half an hour afterwards, never again.

Buildings stripped back like in GTA III and like IV with Nico Bellic

US at turn of 20th Century must have been amazing. Did go on a roadtrip around the South West states few years ago, and stayed in some old hotels of that era, several in San Francisco. One even had a Victorian swimming pool in the basement.

You played GTA? I thought you are much older  I've only been on East Coast. And when I was in New York I had a feeling like I've already been there because of GTA. Roadtrip through the desert sounds fun 👍

I would go back to 1230 AD

with a team of doctors

and keep Ögedei Khan alive well past his death year of 1241 AD (he took power in 1229)

and do it via stealth

his early death from alcoholism was the single greatest inflection point in human history over the past 12,000 years (basically the entire length and span of human true even semi-mass civilisation of any sort)

you have to go back to the genetic bottleneck where humans almost died out (only 2000 or so survived ) 70,000 years ago to find the only one bigger (unless you count the first true moden human being born, but that is too esoteric to deal with now)

the Mongols had (it is a long long story) Europe entirely at its knees, EVERYWHERE

and his death was the only thing that stopped it, as the Khan dying was like a giant robot's brain being turn off, they all turned around (after CRUSHING a combined force army that was the last hope for Europe) and went back for the Kurultai in Mongolia to pick the new Khan, and then never returned for a multiplicity of reasons)

IF he had lived  20 more years (maybe even just 10 or 15) the Mongols would have conquered THE ENTIRE WORLD (Africa and the Americas would have been like taking candy from a baby, same for Australia) eventually and kept it due to the way they ruled IF they had had a systemic well-planned transfer of power from Ögedei  (NOT joking at all, it would have been inevitable and moden human history would be insanely different and for the better, but again, it would take a cray cray long discussion to lay out why)

 

so that is what I would use

Epstein Didn't Kill Himself

Jeffrey Epstein, an American financier who was accused of trafficking underage girls, died Aug 10, 2019. While awaiting trial, he was found unresponsive in his jail cell in Manhattan. His death was ruled a suicide, but skeptics believe he was killed because of his damaging secrets on powerful figures, including: President Trump, Former President Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and many more.

20% of profits donated to the Polaris Project, a nonprofit, non-governmental organization that works to combat and prevent modern-day slavery and human trafficking.

Was late to gaming. PS1 Winter Olympics (Clearing out someones house and they gave it to me). Then paid about £450 for PS2 and Max Payne with GTA III about 2000. Took me ages to sus them out
