      “GOP Proposes Banning Sacrificial Death Miracles”

      AP News - Decrying the seemingly miraculous events of last week as “blatant socialism” and, rather ironically, “part of the woke agenda”, house Republicans have introduced a bill that would make sacrificing ones life altruistically a felony. When asked how they planned to prosecute the rotting corpse of the accused were the bill to pass, House Speaker Mike Johnson acknowledged the steep uphill battle, stating, “we will leave no gravestone unturned when it comes preventing ordinary Americans from having God-like benevolence and generosity forced upon them against their will.”

      Immortality

      Immortality seems like a good idea, but there’s going to be a LONG time from when the last living thing dies out to the heat death of the universe where you’ll finally join non-existance. EONs of nothing to do likely floating in a vacuum or being trapped on all sides by rock/debris. No thanks.

      Don’t know if that would work as the payment is your life. You wouldn’t be around to receive it. Interesting thought experiment

    For the world to be truly united into a democratic representative utopia. A world without war, without famine, without global warming. At the heart of all issues is, despite the fact we’re all so close to each other, that we operate and behave in our own self interests or to the detriment of each other. I’d wish for all borders to be opened. Everyone to be given a unquestionable bare minimum set of human rights across the globe. Removal of diplomatic immunity and forced standardisation of laws with the goal of levelling the living standards of all people. Etc. World peace but with a foundation to keep it going I think.

    It’s really a shame that we have a state in my country named Ohio, but not one named Obyeo. So that would be my wish. For my country to have an Obyeo.
