1. Would you rather explore time or space? ( I mean would you rather remain on Earth and travel backwards/forwards in time, or explore the universe)

Space I guess.

2. What is the last thing you lost, and did you find it again?

I briefly lost my voice when I was sick.

3. What was your original reason for joining MB?

Ska Jew Logos Ra or whatever and Jack Pat had great recs when I browsed. Also I spammed my music and OH called me out.

4. What is the longest single journey you have ever undertaken? (A road trip/multi-stop plane journey or cruise would all be seen as one journey)

Sacramento to Illinois on a cheap 4 stop flight.

5. What's currently on your computer desk/table/area?

My desktop at work has some cover pages, a small day by day calendar, and a phone.

6. What's the toughest decision you ever had to make?

Cutting ties with a longtime friend of mine who I saw turn into a dysfunctiomal alcoholic who sucked to hang out with. I tried to guide him towards responsible drinking habits and **** for a long time but none of it stuck.

Can you go far enough into the future on whatever remains of earth (matter cannot be created or destroyed) to see past the end of the universe? So it all depends on how TH defines earth. If it’s just this recognizable sphere with these oceans then space without a doubt. Then with space it’s like ok even inside black holes, into whatever dark matter is with some way to navigate it, into other dimensions if they exist, if we’re in a multiverse then....
If I can explore other worlds then I'm down. The feeling of stepping on a planet where there is no life and you can just imagine the claustrophobia of there being not a single lifeform on a planet besides yourself on a planet the size of the earth... Jesus, there can be nothing to compare that to. And if I can make first contact with an alien race, then... what else could possibly be worth that?

Yes. I tried to do it on the sly.

Yeah

This one sci-fi novel I read had a part where this guy was on a planet that humans were terraforming but it only had plants. Not a single animal of any kind. No insects or anything. It wasn’t like the greatest book but I spent a lot of time pretending I was there. It’s a crazy ****ing thought. When the story moved on and birds were introduced into the ecosystem I felt sad that my fictional plant world was gone.

1. Would you rather explore time or space? ( I mean would you rather remain on Earth and travel backwards/forwards in time, or explore the universe)
Space would be cool, but after I'd seen the fireworks, I think I'd regret the choice. I'd rather explore time: Specifically human history and the millennia where various critters lived here before we did. It would also be trippy to see Earth at the early stages, with volcanoes going off all over the place.

2. What is the last thing you lost, and did you find it again?
An old knife that used to belong to my grandma literally broke in two when I read this question. I was trying to cut a slice of bread in two and the plastic handle cracked. You jinxed me!

3. What was your original reason for joining MB?
Feeling frustrated that it was impossible to really talk about music with people on Youtube and in the comment sections of music review sites and blogs.
I thought that a dedicated music forum seemed like the way to go. I'd bumped into MB here and there before when searching various musical topics.

4. What is the longest single journey you have ever undertaken? (A road trip/multi-stop plane journey or cruise would all be seen as one journey)
Northern Denmark to Southern France by car. Probably with one night's stop midway through, but I can't remember for sure. It might have been in one go.

5. What's currently on your computer desk/table/area?
Graphite pencils and coloring pencils, rulers, erasers, pencils sharpeners, assorted small blocks of note paper, my Canon printer/scanner, plus my PC speakers. Batty answered it as a question of what's on the computer desktop, and the answer to that would be this.

6. What's the toughest decision you ever had to make?
Would I rather explore time or space?

1. Would you rather explore time or space? ( I mean would you rather remain on Earth and travel backwards/forwards in time, or explore the universe)

I would choose space (and then catapult myself directly into the sun)

2. What is the last thing you lost, and did you find it again?

I lose things 800 times per day. So I couldn't say.

3. What was your original reason for joining MB?

I found it while aimlessly googling something-- can't remember what. Lurked for years on and off and then registered. No particular reason

4. What is the longest single journey you have ever undertaken? (A road trip/multi-stop plane journey or cruise would all be seen as one journey)

St. Croix when I was 13

5. What's currently on your computer desk/table/area?

A flask of moonshine, a bag of trail mix, various perfume oils, various cups/mugs, b12, a red leather journal, and a wooden desk organizer thingy that is turned upside down and being used to hold my oil lamp instead

6. What's the toughest decision you ever had to make?

It's a bit too depressing/personal to say here.
