In the process of writing this, I discovered that I’m the kind of person who likes to leave footnotes & links to references in their Sci-Fi 🙈 #pint24

I gave a talk at the Pint of Science tonight! At “imagined futures” we had 4 time travelers coming from the future. I traveled back to 2024, coming from 2074 to talk about a birthday party and data democracy. 🥳🍻 #pint24 #citizenscience

The transcript of my talk is already on my blog here: https://tzovar.as/imagined-futures-2074/
