Buyers and sellers
Running my new eBay store, Cinderbox, has been a learning experience. I’m trying to figure out ways to stand out in the sea of sellers—building a website, maybe even doing merch down the line. But this story isn’t really about my store. It’s about something bigger: negative reviews.

The mind of wealthy people
I watched the following videos and wanted to give my thoughts on them. I picked these videos because I think they showed the minds of wealthy people and what they think and believe. I’m not a psychologist or psychiatrist, this is just what I got out of the videos.

I quit you pompus ass. Content Warning.
To Mr. Smiras I quit, you pompous, narcissistic ass. I heard from HR that you were going to fire 500 people, and I was one of them, so I’m quitting first. I was your best scientist and project manager, now who are you going to make lead scientist? Mel? The only thing he came up with is a pill that makes you puke…oh and that week he took off, he used it so he could go to Hawaii.

The immortality consequence
Thank you for listening to Tech Stuff, today is April 30th, 2208. Because of the women we’re going to talk to today I’ve been alive 108 years and I look damn good. Today’s story is about Doctor Gretta Dunbar, the youngest person to open her own lab. At 20, she started Dunbar Labs, which made some of the biggest discoveries in centuries. By the age of 35, she made Time Magazine's person of the year three times, published many research papers, and launched her own podcast. Dunbar Labs was the first lab to clone a human being, perfect cryogenics, and create mechanical body parts with skin that looks and feels like the real thing.

A fault in time
The river ran backwards on the day the Queen vanished. Seconds later it started running forward again. At Buckingham Palace, in the music room, the King and Queen were in a meeting. Everyone looked at each other with confusion and horror on their faces.

The Wolf and the Warrior. Content Warning.
8am Saturday morning at Red Riding Hoods house. Hey, I’m Melinda Burgis, but people call me Little Red Riding Hood. It’s a beautiful Saturday morning; I did all my homework, so I have the whole weekend to do what I want. Sunday I’m supposed to go out with my friend Gina, but today I’m going to help my mother in the kitchen.

Jasper's Log
July 18th, 2050, Jasper’s log I have seen people writing logs for a time capsule and I thought I would create one as well. I am a third-generation robot with a level two positronic brain. Living among humans is interesting and I have learned a lot. I have seen what they were and what they have become, and I am proud to call them friends. We are aloud to grow, learn and show creativity as humans do. I discovered I love art, when I am not helping build infrastructure I like to draw and paint. I have created a few murals on buildings, and I also like creating art on my body, I have done it for some of my robot friends as well. It gives me great happiness to be able to show off my art, and people really seem to enjoy it.

A log for the Time Capsule
March 5th, 2050, Joanne Folds residence 6:24 am This morning, I woke up, made some coffee then exited the bomb shelter. It’s a perfect day, the temperature is a wonderful 78 degrees with a slight breeze in the air, thanks to the shield around the Earth and industrial fans creating a gentle breeze. On the ham radio I hear scientists almost have a fix for climate change, but they’ve been saying that for years.
