I still like how the least realistic part of this entire episode was the metric system in common use in the US.
Also they were using Health Care IDs for identification, from the universal healthcare, that’s the most unrealistic part.
You only saw people in the sanctuary districts using them though, right? Arguably, that’s just Medi-Cal, California’s Medicaid program.
It could have been wasnt it for orange man.
Hey now, he definitely, totally has a plan that he’s been working on, we just have to vote him in again and he’ll get it out in like two weeks. 100%.
Free euthanasia for anyone who didn’t vote for him.
As I have noted elsewhere, that’s just because the guy who installed the clock didn’t bother to change the units to fahrenheit.
Isn’t it 15 degrees every day in San Francisco
Don’t ruin it for us.
Did a 5 mi hike from West Portal to Funston the other day and it was 60f and melting me. Then I sat at home in avenues where it was 60f and I was freezing.
Not to mention that there’s a temperature range throughout the day.
It was not a prediction. They literally time traveled there. Did you guys even watch the show?
They have a show!?
Yes. At Quark’s every Thursday, the Dabbo girls do a Rockettes number.
Star Trek accurately predicted…
Star Trek accurately re-enacted
pre-enacted
One fan theory is that Star Trek is told from the perspective of a time traveler using the technology available at the time to tell the stories of something in the future.
So it would be re-enacted from that perspective.
Is there a write up of this theory?
^^
re-preordained?
Me getting memes ready for tomorrow:
Why meme tomorrow what you can meme today?
Don’t let your memes be memes.
Lower Decks!! Lower Decks!!
Ugh you know what I just realized guys
The Bell Riots won’t happen tomorrow because the timeline got fucked up when Gene Roddenberry told the stories of the future. The warnings about the Temporal Cold War was really about the fact that we’re already knee deep in it.
DAAAAAANIEEEELLLLS!
Yeah we live in the timeline where the sanctuary districts didn’t happen so we never riot we just keep collectively watching everything burn to the ground.
The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco.
Holy hell
They clearly consulted the wormhole prophets for this one
Yet they had nothing to say on the price of a Big Mac .

Aw shit
One slight, tiny, intsy-wintsy, little discrepancy: 8/30/2024 is a Saturday; not Friday.If ever there was a day to not wake up, I think today is that day. 🤦♂️
I don’t know where you live, but it’s Saturday, August 31st here.
Can confirm, the 30th was a Friday for me
I wasn’t in SanFran yesterday but I’ll wager it was the 30th there.
Crew, I think dohpaz fell into a spatial anomaly. OPS get a tractor beam on him so we can slingshot him to the right date.
Might want to look at your phone real quick. You happen to be quite wrong.
If you told someone 30 years ago to look at their phone to get the time they’d look at you weird.
It was, however, common to listen to your phone to check the time.
I don’t remember the local number to check the time when I was a kid. But I remember the local number to check the weather.
334-1515. “Brought to you by WGTC, where we’ve got the country.”
Don’t ask me how I remember something like that from 40 years ago.
The phone was used for all sorts of pre-internet information back then. Pretty innovative. I remember calling up the university agricultural extension to get plant info by entering various codes (entering, as in rotary dialing each number). Also the futuristic registering for college classes through a touch tone phone vs. standing in lines.
I remember calling up for.movie times. Sitting there waiting for every fucking movie to be listed before finally hearing yours and hitting the button, them listening to every fucking date before hitting for Saturday, then hearing every fucking time until the evening ones come up and your friends yells something at you and you miss the time.
For a while, the town I lived in had a big sheet they distributed with a ton of different free phone services you could use- including games! A bunch of choose-your-own adventures which would be updated regularly, I think once a week. It was great as a kid.
There was one that would say, “At the moan, the time will be [HH:MM] and [SS] seconds” and then there’d be a woman doing a sexy moan.

Time and the weather. We had it good. Still works too, so maybe we still have it good. =)
30 years ago they had to look at their phones? Doesn’t their implant tell them when they think of time?
Dohpaz, friend, pal, please… look at the date.
This was like, one of the easiest things ever to double check before posting my dude.
