I am on Earth. I am an inter dimensional time traveler. For now I'm here for a while on a planet that is getting colder daily. It is full of humans. Their landscape has been moderately modified. The continent I am on is covered by an extensive series of roads. The entire planet can be circumnavigated in less than a day with planes. Buildings reach almost a kilometer into the sky, supported by steel and concrete. Several people have traveled to the moon. Economies are global.
Most notably this is all changing. This change has been accelerating since people began to build cities 7,500 years ago. Populations, culture, art, information and buildings are all changing and growing faster than any other time on this planet. Each day is a new peak.
This onslaught of new creation will make my search more challenging but at the same time will be richer with more depth.
