Throughout my extreme agony and pain searching for a good topic to write about, last night, I checked my YouTube video feed and came across a video that caught my attention. But your future self should already know that, unless your future self went back in time to stop you from reading this which obviously didn't work which would mean that your future self caused a drift in the time and space continuum. I can't believe that you would do something like that. Anyway, before the fabric of reality tears apart, I would like to tell you about time paradoxes so that you may be able to change the future, which would change the past due to time travel, which would change the future again. But in the end, anything is better than reality collapsing due to your future self's mistake, which is technically your mistake. But back on topic, the first of two important time paradoxes that I chose to discuss that are used in movies and video games is the bootstrap paradox. This paradox is seems to be more popular due to the films "Back to the Future" and "The Terminator." This paradox is the event of something happening in the future due to something being altered in the past by someone from the future. The second paradox is the butterfly effect. This paradox is usually not included in movies do to how complicated it is and how quickly it can unravel the story. The butterfly effect occurs when someone from the future does some small thing in the past and eventually it slowly unravels and creates a slightly, or dirastically different future. Great, your future time-traveling self has slighly altered reality. You won't even notice the difference because you have new memories. Didn't you know that your uniforms were blue?
