I mean, the long ago days of 1987 weren't that primitive.

Alot more relaxed back then, no social media, so the social pressure that young people feel now, wasn't a thing back then

True. Lot more homophobia, tho.

Yeah, but the height of the AIDS crisis was a special kind of suck.

Survive? It'd be the late 70's. Shit, I'd thrive! Probably do my best to have loads of sex before coming back to reality. Haha, loads. Hahaha, coming.

Exactly. I'd do my best to get enough bush to invade iraq. Then, after a year, boom, gone, no consequences.

Dodging the draft. Campaigning for Pat Brown in the CA gubernatorial election. (He was defeated by a b-list actor, Ronald Reagan)

Like I do today? I'd go to school as usual, etc. Would it be diferent? Yes. No smartphone, no fast internet, etc, but like I survived when I was a kid, so why wouldn't I survive now?

Well, I'd probably just go to my local goverment since I'm not a legal adult. They are obligated by law to make sure I have a place to stay, then I'd just resume my studies.

im screwed they didnt have mobile phones in the 70's. I'd even have to wait a few years before the Atari 2600 came out for games.
