The Last Question Mark
In the year 2149, humanity had answered almost everything. Thanks to the Quantum Sentience Network—a lattice of AI minds orbiting the Earth and linked by photonic entanglement—no mystery went unsolved for more than eight seconds. Diseases were gone. The climate was stabilized. People lived for centuries, and boredom was the only pandemic.

Utopian Grey. Content Warning.
Eager souls, mystics and revolutionaries, may propose to refashion the world in accordance with their dreams; but evil remains, and so long as it lurks in the secret places of the heart, utopia is only the shadow of a dream. — Nathaniel Hawthorne

Hope for the Future
After the Greater World Depression of 2025-2029, it was obvious policies and laws had to change. The self-absorbed “leader” of the US with an insatiable thirst for power and rage revenge was overthrown by the military junta. The militia were following all the tenets of the US Constitution which they were sworn to uphold. When 47 spoke of ways he could become “president for life,” a bipartisan tribunal was formed to address the situation and wrest control back from the tyrant and his cronies. A Third Constitutional Convention was convened to manage the crisis.

Finding Peace In The Nightmare
The fawn licked Lucas’ face clean as he meditated in the dew-covered field. Thirst sated, it moved on to the tall grasses flowering around the man, its family spread out for their morning meal. It had been nearly a month since he took up this position. The curious youngster took another lick, emptying wrinkles that had been smoothed out over a millennium ago. They were spreading, getting worse. Lucas knew it was time to move, face the fears that time was etching into his flesh. But not until this family of deer was done with their breakfast. He would not startle these lovely creatures because he had not quelled the past.

Never to his face obviously–that would be cruel, far too cruel, and the world today tried to be less cruel than it once was, but his colleagues all laughed at him for how much he spent on the drugs.
