Reply to TIL about the female Pharaoh Hatshepsut. The daughter of Thutmose I and his first wife, she married her half-brother, Thutmose II, and was his first wife. When Thutmose II died, she became regent for the baby Thutmose III, her husband's heir by another wife. She ruled 22 years until her death. by marmorset
I can scarcely imagine being surrounded by Thutmoses all day.

Story time!
The human body is going to be so helluva merged with cybernetic and genetic interventions that we will probably be able to adjust our genetic makeup and design our own offspring, if we choose to have any at all. We will be functionally immortal; it’s just a matter of whether we can outlast time and gamma ray bursts. Cultural squabbles will have advanced to the subject of what constitutes a valid human shape; you can be bat boy 🦇 if you want. We will branch and divide. We will have launched at least one colony ship toward another star. We will have VR, AR, XR out the Ass, essentially a hybridized, voluntary hive mind. Our biggest worry is that we will get out to other stars and never really talk all of us together ever again.
Some ideas. That’s all.
