balderdashWhich will you choose: the future or the past?
bstixYou can ask your future self stuff right now. You won’t get the answer until you answer it in the future, but the question is possible.
NegativeLookBehindBut, you never answer it in the future
All answers are from the future, just like all photographs are of the past
But all answers occur in the present.
I posted 19 minutes ago. Your answer came 1 minute ago. Your answer came from the future from the point in time of the question.
This might seem stupid, but it’s the same point that Stephen Hawking used to prove that time travelling is impossible or something.
Tywèle [she|her]I would want to tell my past self that I’m trans and they should take HRT ASAP and that all my friends and family are accepting and that I don’t need to wait until I’m 30 to come out.
MURPH!!! DON’T LET ME LEAVE MURPH!!! MUUUUUURRRRRPHHHHH!!! DON’T LET ME LEAVE!
It’s kind of dumb that knowing she was unable to stop him, he still sent her the same message, instead of sending information like “I am you. Do not go.”
What happens to me after I tell my past self the thing? Do I cease to exist? Do I quantum leap into a version of myself from the universe where my future self told me that one thing? Do I just go on with my life but I know that there is a parallel universe out there where my past self got my message? Or does the time stream correct itself such that my life follows the same exact course except I remember my future self sending me a message?
That’s the neat part, you get to decide since it’s your fantasy, and none of us know the answer for sure.
🇰 🌀 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 🇮 🏆The one thing I would want to tell past me is something I already knew, but still couldn’t convince my dad to invest in Google and Apple back in 2002. We played a game in economics class where, using the real stock market, we started with like 50k to invest in and at the end of the month, whoever made the most money won a big jar of candy.
I won by just putting half in Google and the other in Apple and then never touching it. But I couldn’t convince my dad to invest even a little bit and I had no money of my own to do so myself. 😮💨
THCDentonAsk my future self something. I get a leg up on everyone and future-me’s timeline collapses - not mine.
“Hey future self!”
“…”
“Hello?”
“…”
“Oh shit, he must be dead”
I’d tell my past self that I have ADHD, and to ask my mom to take me to a psychiatrist.
Past. I’d do a lot of things differently including being single forever.
Tell past self: buy bitcoin early and HODL until they are worth ~$50k. DO NOT GET TEMPTED!!!
I’m definitely going to sell a few thousand coins to make my life more comfortable while waiting for the high point.
