005 ⌥ TEXT; ANONYMOUS [god, i feel like i'm spamming]
If anyone's got a minute to spare, I was wondering if you'd tell me about wherever it is you come from.
The world or worlds, the level of technology, the political hierarchy, your culture and society and how it functions, etc.
[But a few minutes later, a second part is tacked on.]
Forget it. Forget all of that. Don't worry about getting technical.
Just tell me what it was like for you. Your ship or city. Your job. Your friends or family.
If it's not a problem.

Anyway, the government is a democracy? President and the House and Senate in Congress and all that jazz.
