WP Prompt: If you could erase one event from history, what would it be?
If I could erase one moment from history, and I’ll stick with my own – I’d erase the very first time I said ” I’m sorry ” for what I said or did, not because I was wrong but I wanted to make the other person feel better.
That moment taught me to knuckle under for anyone who may have been upset because I was right and they were wrong.
WP ask What’s a conspiracy theory you actually find believable?
The one like the best is the one about how dreams tie into the Multiverse theory.

I don’t think this conspiracy theory is actually believable, this one just happens to be the one I find the most entertaining.
The only thing that I would consider a plot hole in this theory is that if the subconscious mind is a receiver, who is the transmitter? Or are we both? And if so, how does that work?
The idea just tickles me.
Who is the original ‘dreamer?’ Someone suffering from schizophrenia? A dog fast asleep on the foot of a bed? Or maybe the demon in Poe’s ” The Raven ” is the original dreamer. That would explain a lot:
And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door; And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming, And the lamplight o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor; And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor Shall be lifted—nevermore!
Multiverse Leaks: A common speculative viewpoint treats the subconscious mind not as a creator of images, but as a receiver. Proponents think vivid dreams let people tune into alternate universes, past lives, or parallel versions of themselves
In our little corner of the Universe, Jupiter is the King of Planets.
As far as planets go, it is impressive. Jupiter is not solid as we know- so think of it as an ocean will killer waves- and I do mean killer. Jupiter will crush you like a bug the further down you travel to it’s center. Plus the radiation it gives off would kill you dead and it’s not exactly easy on electronics either.
But it’s Jupiter’s size that is mind boggling. Over 1,000 Earths could fit into it.
But there is another planet out there that is bigger then Jupiter, and probably deadlier then Jupiter and it’s just a baby, it’s still forming.
Meet AB Aurigae b

AB Aurigae b is still only a baby as far as planets go. It’s a giant gas planet that scientists have discovered in the early stages of its formation. And it’s already breaking records in astronomy. Astronomers say the planet is nine times the mass of Jupiter — and that it is challenging our understanding of how planets form.
When I started to hear about these exoplanets and planets that were bigger then Jupiter, my thoughts jumped to Macbeth.
Kings as we know, don’t like to be challenged and some of those challengers are crazy.

1. What was your favourite TV show as a kid?
My favorite TV show when I was a kid was Star Trek. I wanted to fly spaceships, I wanted to marry Captain Kirk. I wanted to be fearless and I wanted to be an explorer too.
I didn’t do most of those things, but I write about them so that’s a win I suppose.
2. Do you have a favourite ‘tipple’? (alcoholic drink, or something when you are out for a meal etc)
I LOVE Strawberry Magaritas. I will dine where they are served. I’m only drink them when I eat out which is about three times a year and that’s the only time I drink alcohol so one those sweet thick drinks goes a long way for me.
One day I may be able to finish one, lol. I’m a lightweight, what can I say?
3. Is there a movie you can watch again and again and still enjoy?
I can rewatch loads of movies and enjoy each one, but the one I love the most for no one reason is Five Million Years to Earth. I think I love it because it blends Ghosts and Martians and devils looking creatures into one glorious movie.
4. Did you have a favourite toy as a child? Or perhaps one you wanted and never got?
My favorite toy was a musical Snoopy that I got in the late 60’s for Christmas. I loved that toy to death and one year ( I was a teenager by then ) he disappeared from my collection. My brother fessed up and said his girlfriend liked it so he gave it to her.
Yeah. He did that. He and his girlfriend ‘went steady ‘ for a few months and then they broke up. I never did get my Snoopy back and I never have forgiven my brother for giving him away.
