The Thanos Snap has sooo many problems associated with it. It’s developed by an evil multinational that doesn’t listen to its users and keeps trying to force itself on the universe.
People should use the Thanos Flatpak instead…
Ronald Reagan
Why him? Why not someone who did something of note?
A LOT of the current Republican policies are based on the stuff that happened during his administration.
The Big Bang was a mistake.
Snap
Jimmy Carter losing to Ronald Reagan, shits just rolled downhill gathering size and pace from that unfortunate event.
Mosquitos. I’m so fed up with those things.
I work in pest control and controlling mosquitos is a big part of what we do. What I’ve noticed over the years is some people, like myself, never get bitten while others, like my wife, are constantly attacked. I’ve never looked into why that is but I find it interesting. I haven’t had a mosquito bite in probably 3 or 4 years. Granted, I treat my home for them but I’m always working places that have them bad but I’m never bitten. Couples I work for often relay the same things to me about one being bit but not the other.
I have had mosquitos land on my arm and then fly away without stinging me, all before I could wave them away.
I theorize that it’s somehow based on skin undertone? Maybe? Just by my very limited personal experience, me and my mother have Olive tone skin and we get left alone and my dad and my other three sisters have pink toned skin and get devoured and I’ve seen that pattern play out in about 20 of my close acquaintances as well. I don’t know why that would possibly cause any sort of change besides maybe there’s some chemical makeup in olive tone skin that smells bad to mosquitoes? I don’t know, but me and my Olive friends seem to get left alone and the pink babies get munched.
It’d have to be something fairly pivotal, but nothing so important or so far back that it prevents myself from existing amidst the swirl of history. I think I’d take the risk and say Reagan never became president. That would domino Reaganomics out of history, and remove the precedent of celebrities becoming president.
Im thanos snapping Ea Nasir, he sold me inferior quality copper for way too much money >:c
Hate.
If it has to be something tangible, then idk, pickles maybe.
I choose this poster, for wanting to take away my beloved pickles.
Greed or dishonesty are other abstract ones to consider. Worried that removing dishonesty could cause some harms, but I guess anything in the thread probably could.
We would just replace hate with something else.
“I love you so much that I’m stabbing you with this sword so that you are spiritually preserved at your current status for all of eternity”, something like that.
That’s basically the “plot” to the song Miss Murder.
Henry Kissinger. Easy. Godfather of horrific war crimes and if we all die of nuclear annihilation one day he will be the person I would put the most blame on. It irritates the shit out of me that he died peacefully. A man who made sure napalm gets poured on civilian children? Gets to die like that? Fuck that goof and I hope he was afraid when he died and I hope it hurt.
Ronald Reagan.
Also, while I’ve got control of the wishfish, I need it to happen paradoxically. I need him to both get turned to ash at the end of his life, so he knows why he deserves it, and before he’s able to collude with Iran.
Myself
Honestly, this was my first thought too. I wouldn’t mind getting off the wheel with absolutely no consequences.
Newton’s third law.
The collision with Theia
Why do you hate the moon?
No public toilets
If it can be abstract I would snap away the acceptance of hierarchy as a method of social control, like historically speaking go back to the first people who decided that there should be a person in charge of all the things and have the people say “Naw, that’s fucked” and then that just not happen. Not that the idea of hierarchy not be in existence at all, because I think it would be more effective to have people recognize that it’s bullshit and intentionally build societies antithetical to hierarchy rather than to have society’s that are ignorant of its potential harm.
If it had to be a tangible thing that I could physically dissolve… Parasites? Would all parasites count or is that too broad? Cuz if we got rid of fleas and leeches and mosquitoes and ticks that would wipe out huge swaths of vectors of disease transmission. No black plague, no zika, no dengue fever. If we wanted to expand the definition of parasites even broader than the the bourgeoisie class might be included but I wouldn’t want to get my hopes up. XD
The tiktaalik that though leaving the waters is a good idea, or the monke that thought walking up right is a good idea
Why stop there? There’s an energy gulf between the evolution of DNA and the first thing we could call a cell. Eliminate the first cell to ever exist on the planet, and the right conditions to evolve to that point may never be replicated again.
