@nblumengarten In the 90s show "Sliders", there was an episode where the gang slid to an alternate timeline where J. Edgar Hoover seized power after JFK's assassination. The police all wore skirts, in homage to Hoover's predilections. This is redolent of it.
It really does feel like we're in the darkest timeline.
@LiberalLibrarian @nblumengarten Tbh, I would rather be in that timeline right now
