This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It’s “hard sci-fi”, so that means no lightspeed travel but also we’ve had cryo sleep since the 90s because obviously that’s so fucking easy to invent.
Also, lots of mixed culture names like Aleksander Ho because your genius prediction of the future is that people will intermarry.
To be fair, cryo sleep does not violate fundamental laws of physics like FTL anything does.
It works conceptually, but in Demolition Man they had it working supposedly in 1996, only three years after the movie came out. Of course lots of old sci-fi now has those laughably optimistic future timelines where the Mars colony is up and running in 2010.
no no no the name will be Ho Skywalker because they'll be named after jobs and fiction
