It's been many years, more than 5, maybe 10 but I'm not terribly active in this sub.

I joined because I've always been fascinated by this possible sci-fi future and I wanted to see a perspective on humanity's future that isn't based on politics and environmentalism, both offering a very bleak future.

I've been on long enough to feel like nothing is happening fast enough (to my liking) and the 2 previous viewpoints I mentioned have tainted what I think will happen. eg. Every time I hear of something that will prolong life or give a new state of consciousness I have the cynical thought that it will be for the rich and unattainable by the common man.
