Future- sight


Posts: 2478

Anybody else wish we had the ability to see into the future? Juggling a lot of good things right now, but to see into the future would give me a real sense of assurance. Either that or I would make a midcourse correction.

Either the sheer number of contingent timeloops would overcomplicate things more than it is now, or we'd see ourselves having seen the future through enough recursive loops that we could only ever see the deterministic outcome, the outcome that'd have come from having seen the outcome in advance with no means of stopping it

It's either a massive headache of complication or a Cassandra Complex waiting to happen. In this case we are blessed with ignorance of this, rather than blessed with suck

Not knowing the future is what makes life worth living. Am I going to die today? If you knew the end of the movie, that would fuck things up.

The virus came from my ASS!

 I also agree with this vantage point but aren’t you the least bit curious?

 Accurate, but she just wants to see if Chapo will chose her, so it won’t be complicated when I tell her the future, which is that she will never get Chapo because he’s mine. She really needs to chill. As the days go by, she is getting closer and closer to infringing on my rights as his girlfriend. For now, he is single, so I’ll allow it, but not for long...

Come to think of it, I wouldn't mind being able to see 10 minutes or so into the future.

 There are certain things I definitely want to see. What does the world look like in 2100 ?
