They tell me that hundreds of years ago, people used to live on Earth, and that it used to be a somewhat magical place filled with grass and trees and other such things. I certainly prefer the metallic orbitals throughout the solar system. While things like grass might’ve made Earth a nice place, there were other aspects that sounded like a nightmare.
For all their love of grass, they still destroyedit all along with the rest of the ecosystem. Now we only ever travel to surface to bring back oxygen deposits for the orbitals. I’m also told racism and bigotry were rampant. Such things seems so silly now that aboard the orbitals we can change our race or gender with a simple thought.
I apparently had a thought about being a woman in a dream and woke up as one. I haven’t gone back since. But the hate that would’ve befallen me on Earth for having such a thought? I have been told it was intense. Perhaps it was the length process of transition back in the day that made it so frowned upon? I don’t know. It still seems hard to believe humans were ever so primitive.
