Sometimes being the sole representative from another world (technically third since Emmit and Redwin have been beaming poetry to you for a decade, but no one reads there or realizes they're from Terra) can be tiring. I mean, sure there i a lot I can write about. Sponge Werewolves, or Mayan Mummies vs Egyptian Mummies, but it is a lot of work to notice things.
And honestly?
I think the smaller things are more interesting.
Like the fact that we have beer vending machines just like in your Japan. When we gave up Prohibition, we gave it ALL up and didn't find another victim to blame it on. You know, like making hemp...I'm sorry "Marijuana" illegal. Being more laid back probably means why we haven't elected some of the idiots you have on Earth. I mean, we're not perfect. We still had a Hitler. Hell, we even have a Soup Nazi, but Jesus Christ....there are some uptight people over there.
We almost switched to driving on the other side of the road back in the early twenthieth century as solidarity with Britain, but the Rockefellers had just bought cars and learned to drive so they crushed that right off the bat. But some of the same people you have who are anti vaccine or flat earthers believe that there is a legal right to drive on the other side of the road. Its called the Wrong Way movement and they're responsible for 200-300 deaths a year.
Elvis really never died in our timeline and became head of the CIA under Reagan. In 1988, he stepped down and did a live tour with the Beatles.
The Berlin wall didn't fall in Terra until 2005.
China is split between North China and South China and Taiwan is actually a protectorate of Japan.
Bears are known to use tools to get into campers; including crow bars, explosives left at mine sites and occasionally acid. No picnic basket is safe.
There is no Key Lime Pie in Terra. It is horrible.
