Truly terrible real life.

In the future, nobody will believe that this timeline actually existed. This will all be forgotten - dropped into the Memory Black Hole like:

previous Great Fires,

Kamchatka,

The Black Death,

that time when England burned from north to south (pre-Middle Ages),

when Guido III ruled Namibia...etc.

This timeline is indeed like a failed Hollywood comedy, thriller, political expose', documentary. Too unbelievable to be popular and do well at the box office.

Thanks, Ellen, exactly. We just keep accepting an exponentially growing number of absurdities (when I say "we" I mean the nation, not someone reading this, for the most part).

Weird thing about Kamchatka. For some reason, I always, always, lusted for it when I played Risk.

Coincidentally, I always chose Guido III as my leader when playing the computer game Civilization.

It’s all true, Ellen. All of it. Whatever you’ve read.

Jasmine is indeed The Doctor.

I choked on my coffee when I read: I Vomited--Hollywood Reporter.

Thanks, Susan. That was my favorite part, too, lol. In fact, I almost just posted the graphic, but I decided that a movie review was in order because if any movie like this had been made before all this happened it would have bombed for being too absurd.
