According to multiverse theory of physics, it is possible that many different universes exist outside of our own-- and this theory has been explored and debated more and more in recent decades. While the scientific theories are varied in the role of our reality and how other universes may represent it, the idea of alternate realities, though less scientific and more philosophical, is one well-worth thinking about. So let's think about it-- how different could your life be in an alternate reality?

1. Dinosaurs still roam the Earth.

You ride a very tame brontosaurus to work at your non-profit, HFDW (Humans for Dinosaur Welfare). The irony escapes you daily.

2. You are married to Willas Tyrell of Highgarden.

Your entire family perished in the War of the Five Kings, and you are the sole product of your family's line. You merge it with that of House Tyrell through your arranged marriage to Willas. You love your husband, eat peaches every day, and are happy. Except for the frequent warfare and sickness and terror and threat of never-ending winter. And everyone dying, like, all the time.

3. Everything is terrible.

Everything is bad, all the time, always. Meteors. Volcanoes. Overly-greasy chicken McNuggets. Everything is shit. Some of you may be in this one right now, frankly.

4. The world is fair.

Undeserving people don't hold overwhelming and disproportionate money and power. Everyone gets what their karma earns them in life. The world is still considered, by far, to be very unfair by the population.

5. We live on a 99.9% water planet.

Everyone swims and eats other things that swim or things that float. There are many merpeople. You do not recognize yourself as a non-human. Everyone pees in the ocean. No one cares.

BONUS:

Alternate Realities We Should STOP considering:

1. If the South won the American Civil War

2. If the Allies had lost WWII

And other such bullshit.
