You can time travel either into the past or future by up to 200 years. But you can only travel once. Whenever you land, that is your new time.
Do you do it? And wherever you'd land, which time would you choose?
I would -- as I am nearing the end of life -- choose to travel 100 years into the future. Worst case, I get to see what life is like then and die shortly afterward, as I was going to. Best case, life is enormously better and they chuckle that I was about to die from such trivial causes and extend my life by another 30 years in a new, strange time.
What about you?

I don't think I would.
I'm tempted to go back to 1970 so I can experience all that wonderful music again, but it wouldn't be new to me the second time around so it wouldn't hit the same. I'd tell some kid, "This is good, but their next album is even better!" and they'd back slowly away and avoid eye contact.
And, like you, I'm curious how this all plays out, but I don't want to go into the future alone. I'd miss everybody.
So I'll just stay put and play my old albums with my Mona and my friends.
