From LA Traffic to The Boring Company’s Worrisome Future
Introduction On December 16, 2016 Elon Musk tweets about being stuck in LA traffic and decided to do something about it. From his tweets it was clear that he wanted an underground transportation system. A transportation system which enables Tesla cars to travel at a maximum speed of 125miles/hr (200km/hr) would be a dream come true for everyone. Or at least for tesla owners and Elon Musk fans. And naturally everyone hyped up Boring Company’s CGI rendered promotional video about how influential Boring Company will be in near future and how they can solve traffic. From News Media outlets to twitter users started praising Elon Musk for solving traffic.

Meridian
Year 2088. In the ink of its page wade waves of century old information. Written by the puppet masters of society outlining the intricate maneuvers that have been used to lace textbooks and media with false information. Whether it be wealth, power, manipulation, or knowledge; everything stems from one source. A guide that has kept all of this information secret for generations. Centuries of powerful elites have used its delicate pages to tighten their grip on the world at large. No matter how much its pages are filled, there always seems to be space for more. The be all end all for chaos and order in society. The truth uncensored. The Little Black Book: The Meridian.

Fabian EllisPublished 3 months ago in FuturismThe Mystery of the Akashic Records
The definition of insanity is the repetition of doing something over and over again. It’s considered a coincidence when a single train of thought, action, or theme pops up instantaneously. Déjà vu in society today is commonly known as “just a coincidence”. It’s an occurring phenomenon in which individuals believe they have experienced a certain experience once or twice before in the past. This leads to the main question: where does the past, present, and future go when their paths are thus determined, if they exist at all? Only one idea has been created and circulated throughout the course of history. The name of this theory is fairly new and had been only coined in the late 19th century. It is called the Akashic Record Theory. The Akashic Record Theory’s existence is true, due to the beliefs and opinions of individual Theosophists, its connection across religions, as well as its anecdotal accounts across time itself.

Second Chance
The year was 1989 and on a faraway island in the east of Africa was Noah Griffith, an unhealthy-looking 16 years old guy attired in a torn, filthy white shirt and a pair of jeans turned into shorts. Noah has had a terrible life ever since his parents passed away in a horrible car crash, at the age of 12 while coming back from the hospital with their new-born baby; his little sister. His parents left him with nothing but debts, and now he had to be responsible to pay off the house mortgage and all the other bills. Being only 16, he felt like he was already a full-grown adult with enormous responsibilities, little education, and no one to seek for guidance or support. He was an apprentice in a boat trying to be a fisher and thereafter be prepared to sell seafood for a living. When he was not on the boat, he worked in a diner, washing dishes. His life was deeply miserable until one day, an incident twisted his life around.

Life is Just One Thing After Another
During this pandemic, I have watched eagerly as the experts understand and communicate, how the virus is structured and how it behaves. I have been attempting to understand a little more, although it fair to say that my understanding will make no difference.

Augmented Reality
It takes a special sort of optimism to bring children into the world, particularly in times of trouble. The more educated you are, the more you know about the world at large and the forces crashing around it like icebergs speckled with political lice, the more daunting it is to try and project for the future. My parents started with me and my siblings in the early 1980’s, so they didn’t have the Internet to feed them a constant flow of doom and contrast, but since both of them had had parents with military and intelligence backgrounds reaching back to the second world war, they had enough to go on to know that the world at large was neither safe, nor sound, and that interesting times were ahead.

This is a story from my contemplations of time as a currency. Its seems that time is itself nothing but a way to calibrate quality of movement in space. Time as a currency would be a dependent variable because speed of movement through space determines relative unit value of time, and therefore the total units needed to get to your destination.

A Snag Named Hindsight
Most people can't perceive the accurate results of a future circumstance before it happens because there might be plenty of variables in your formulation for the prediction, which might change with time. You only know the constants which plug into your brain to perceive a future event, but you don't know anything about variables. No one can sense a situation beforehand because all its consequences are only revealed after its occurrence, right? Let's try to answer that.
