Depends what clothes I'm wearing when it happens.

If I'm wearing anything that could remotely be seen as fancy back then (which I mean a lot of modern clothes could pass off as), since I'm near the ocean, I'd immediately run into the water not seeing anyone, and then pretend I'm a royal foreigner who ended up shipwrecked. Since I usually wear a watch, have a tungsten (Wolfram) crystal wedding band as well, that would help me in passing off as royalty as well. This is assuming the people helping me aren't brigands. There's things we do and know of that we take for granted that could be used to pass off as someone upper class too, like reading.

Then next steps would be to get to an aristocrats home, and eventually I'd imagine somewhere where I could work with scholars so they can teach me the language and we can work on translation so we can understand each other. Would have to be extremely careful of smallpox during all this of course.

Once we could, that's when I'd finally whip out my phone to trusted scholars and pull up my survival books, books on plumbing, etc specifically, and to explain that this is a special metal and glass book that can hold many books that's common in the land I'm from, and that I can teach them how to build them. But that we'd need to build plumbing because I'd like a shower by then.

Goggles is the first part, the owner is the second part

In short, I support these probably for the same reason you oppose Eich: I believe in freedom. I guess I define that a bit more liberally than you do.

I know you fake mofos are the type to always need to get the last word because it makes it seem to other dumdums that getting the last say is somehow "winning", but I'm leaving this link here for anyone who remotely might believe your take is a good one:

Chile would be good. It has a fairly strong passport, which I believe is stronger than the USA one in 2025 (before Trump), since it can still travel to the EU visa free.

This brings up some questions. Like how realistic does the game look to the person trapped inside? Are censors that the game normally has still active? What about live service games or MMOs? Do you die if they go out of business and they take down the servers?

But most importantly, how do I know I'll actually be uploaded into that video game?

Oho they were not in the news, but DEFINITELY in the tabloids.

Much like Kennedy's sexual escapades.

Elizabeth Eckford had the protection of the federal government (this is it you ignore that she got PTSD so bag from the experience she attempted suicide btw).

Today's federal government on the other hand is on the side of the people yelling:

You ever hear about the Black Panthers? You know why they were so successful California and the FBI had to intervene to try to disband them? Here's a hint:

And you know why they were armed? Here's another hint to how non-armed black protestors were usually dealt with in history (sfw example):

An unarmed protest is a defenseless one with no deterrent for the aggressors. And if you're protesting against literal Nazis, it's not going to be peaceful. Even during Trump's first term people were kidnapped, and he's way more unhinged this time.

Trump's people would probably be more likely to shoot you if unarmed, than if the crown was armed.

It's been shown multiple times (and through history) the the opposing force is less likely to shoot the protestors if the protesters can shoot back, because now there's also an actual danger to them.

Until EU gets Central and South America as strong allies, and probably eventually Japan, this making the much closer rival stronger.

Would be hilarious if it happened.
