    That one that deviated from ours shortly after the big bang with the planet sorta like Earth but with a later stage sun and 16 other planets in the system. Specifically the one with higher oxygen content than ours, yellow tree-like plants, and where the main intelligent species looks sorta like 7 legged dogs and sound like they’re laughing when they speak.

      That would mean less greed as greed let to cheaper options to fuel factories and power cars., in exchange for more profit. However greed is our human nature (sadly). So someone else would have made a point to destroy the environment if it would solely benefit them.

        Alas, greed is bred (past sence of breding) into the western societies and then ‘exported’ from Europe via the US as base for economics to all other areas of the globe. I get the feeling it was ‘enhanced’ by the middle-eastern trinity of religions, Jewism, Catholism and Muslism (correct spelling?) which places humans above anture instead of smack in the middle of it and totally depending on it.

    It’s a little depressing to say, but the one where I’m truly and completely happy. I want to see that or at least get to see how to achieve it

      There is no such thing as truly and completely happy. Happiness is not a state of existence.

        Yeah in this universe maybe, but I don’t see why it couldn’t be possible in another universe

          Because even if you achieve happiness there will be something that will bother you. It is in our human nature to look more at the bad sides than the good sides.

          Money: a billionaire stills has problems avoiding taxes and losing all assets.

          Early-pension: people need a purpose to do something, otherwise you will get bored.

          One happy family: outside influences (boyfriend/girlfriend) can negatively influence you.

          However it’s not all bad, we just have to focus less on the negative sides and look to what we can achieve.

      As a great though experiment start to write to yourself from there and then take on the personality of that person and respond.

      What would they say to you? Obviously things go wrong in every universe so how does that alternate universe you mentally frame issues. What decisions do they make when faced with choice.

      ( trying this with bard led me to being a cyborg this made me like AI more and trust it less)

    Tbh, the star trek TNG universe probably. Go see a post scarcity society, a world where humanity really made it, then go find a job on a starship for a while

    One where I was born a girl.

    To be honest, I’d be genuinely curious if they went through their own struggles with expectations, especially ones tied to apparent gender identity. Hell, do they even identify the same way I do? What ripples throughout my entire sense of self could have been caused just by something so seemingly simple?

    Would we be even remotely alike?

    Probably have consequences on my psyche, but meh. Waking up each day is, too.

      I do assume that a (real, unlike places we come up with here) place which had no problems or was perfect could not exist.

      Plus - in who’s point of view would it be perfect?

    I would love to see a world where ww1 (and thus in follow up ww2) would not have happened. So many things in our daily lives have been influenced by the world wars.

    Id like to imagine Germany would’ve become a superstate before it happened in our lifetime. Focusing on industrialization and cooperation with other nations around it to improve the products at the time.

        Fair but so many things we have today come from those 2 wars. So without them the world would be really different.

          I agree with that too. I’m just saying if Franz hadn’t been assassinated, something else would have set someone else off to start an industrial war.
