There was some website that I've blacked out that had horrifying video of people dying in accidents. I remember someone sent me a link with a motorcyclist being hit by a train. I never clicked another link from that site.
So, is anyone else anticipating some crossover with Prodigy and the events that affected the Prime Universe in it's Season 2?
Because that's exactly where my mind went when they did the whole foreshadowing of "someone sure is opening a lot of time rifts lately". (I might have that quote off a bit from Captain Freeman but I'll edit once I get a chance to rewatch.)
I feel the same way about having to use Mac for work and going back to a Linux PC at the end of the day. God damn I hate Mac's UX. From the entire UI, to the CMD key, to the fact that END functions as PGDN and goes to and of page instead of end of line.
Probably not willingly. Republican States are often horrible at updating infrastructure, and due to the lack of a well educated population, they don't suffer much repercussion for that. Very high chance they grew up with or still have lead pipes.
Having 6 toes is as common as webbed feet in today's world, and its not all that uncommon (I was born with 6 toes, my dad had 6 toes and fingers). They don't have bones and surgeons just cut them off at birth these days.
In my mind the more fantastical mutations in the book make it a bit more far fetched and give it that sci-fi feel.
For me the most haunting thing I ever read in English class was The Chrysalids by John Wyndham.
In a sci-fi future post nuclear war the survivors in Labrador on the east coast of Canada completely reject science and all non biblical knowledge. They think everyone not made in their view of gods image needs to die, and that includes their children who begin to develop mutations due to the radiation.
The kids spend a lot of the book trying to escape the crazy, uneducated religious population and try to find a way across the nuclear wasteland that is the centre of Canada and the US in order to get to the Scientific society of survivors, who aren't going to try and kill them, on the island of "Sealand"
I have never believed in religion in spite of being raised in a Catholic family. I read the Bible front to back young and realized it was nothing but contradictory nonsense and fantasy. For me, this novel my public high school teacher assigned to us was pure nightmare fuel.
I missed this, someone have the TL;DR for the clueless?
