IF I WERE IN CHARGE OF THE WORLD

IF I WERE IN CHARGE OF THE WORLD

If I were in charge of the world,

I would cancel prejudice,

I would do away with chauvinism,

I would exterminate Donald Trump,

I would part with capitalism,

I would outlaw war and violence,

And I would end the production of fossil fuels.

If I were in charge of the world,

People would help each other,

People would revere me,

People would respect and admire their elders,

And people would refer to me as Matahi I’ikinomati’i Lihinihiku ‘Ouva’amatuku II, Most Serene Ku’o of the Second World Empire.

If I were in charge of the world,

I would live on an atoll in the middle of the ocean,

I would develop a kathenotheistic religion based on science and literature,

I would work to save endangered species,

I would spend my time creating a language to unite the inhabitants of Earth,

I would create a government based on transparency, equality, and knowledge,

And I would help to preserve the many cultures and languages of our world.

If I were in charge of the world,

I would still procrastinate,

I would still eat junk food,

I would still sleep too much,

And I would still be extremely pessimistic.

An interesting GIF!

Tyler currently lives in a thatch hut on the planet Rurriquog, following the destruction of Laboratory-25.7691 by the Alcarians, an extremely benighted alien race, in the year 2098. Along with three other survivors of the disastrous incident, he spends most of his time eating bacteria off volcanic rocks and reminiscing of times before the destruction of Laboratory-25.7691. He is currently obsessed with the art of plankton farming, and also has an interest in creating languages.
