Honestly it'd be horrifying to wake up in the 90s again with an adult awareness of where the world is heading, and that it was already headed this way because we were knee-deep in capitalism and colonialism.

would you stop 9/11 or would you stop george bush

There's a fairly strong case that stopping Bush might stop 9/11

the world you were in last week doesn't exist, the world you woke up in this morning doesn't exist, and so on

Before Steam, a video game was a piece of paper.

The previews were two screenshots, a paragraph of lies, and your imagination.

However, Harold the Giraffe is eternal and still teaching kids to be healthy in the back of a dark van, he now just also has stuff to say about screen time.
