I would divide my time… first few hours would be about the general state of society… what happened with climate change? - Are people still dying from COVID? - How’s china doing (economy specifically)? - Is the iPhone still popular? - Did we get to mars? Another moon landing? - Are we still waging wars? - Did Elon succeed with Twitter? - Is congress still useless? - Is the queen still kicking? - Did the metaverse succeed?

Then a quick 15-30 mins on stock prices, crypto to make a quick buck.

The rest of the time I’d spend asking questions about any new discoveries made in science. - Did we discover any new elements or fundamental particles? - Did mRNA cure cancer? - Is fusion economically feasible and if so how? - Any new math equations? - Are micro plastics harmful? - Did Analog computers make a come back? - Did we achieve quantum supremacy?

In reality though I probably wouldn’t think about asking half of these questions.

"How did I get here?!" "Help me! Can anyone here understand me?"

> Is the queen still kicking?

She'll be dead by then.
