It got a bit bogged down in season 2 when it dropped some important characters from season 1, & focused more on struggling with an antagonist with the same ability, but driven to maintain history as originally written. But I loved the concept and the way the characters interacted.

In the early 2000s, Eliza Dushku & Zach Galifianakis starred in a show called Tru Calling. A young woman starts working at a morgue and finds that sometimes the dead ask for help, causing her day to repeat until she can solve/stop their murder or stop a disaster. I loved the family dynamics.

One more vote for Susan Cooper's The Dark is Rising series. Just, for the love of all that is good in this world, don't watch the movie.

In general, it seems like most social media sites are driving discourse away from traditional social interactions and more into parasocial ones. It's less sharing with friends and more engaging with followers who are made to feel closer than they really are.

This is obviously too late now, but I thought I would mention the Douglas Adams text adventure game "Bureaucracy." The goal of the game is to get your bank to acknowledge your change of address form. That's it. What it takes to get there just keeps spiraling into more and more bizarre levels.

It may be difficult to find, but the short story "Think Like a Dinosaur" by James Patrick Kelly. Teleportation across the solar system is possible, thanks to alien technology. However, this works by making a copy of a person, "recreating" them at the destination, and destroying the original.

I would also suggest the Apple+ TV series "Upload." It features people uploading themselves into a virtual world at the moment of death, and the fact that your digital "memories" can easily be adjusted or rewritten.

It's difficult these days to know if content creators are genuinely ignorant or if they are purposely trying to increase responses explaining why they're wrong in order to drive their view number and increase their reach...

There's an old axiom that "Democrats fall in love. Republicans fall in line." Rs will show up at every election & tick the box next to every R. Ds won't even bother showing up unless a particular candidate is AMAZING. :_(

I'm sure he'll keep his word as much as all the Supreme Courts judges who swore before confirmation that they wouldn't change any legal precedent...

We had zero experience with the other versions, but the live action was incredible. We keep telling people that THIS is how you do live action anime. :)
