But what really torments me is, how can we tell we're travelling in time? It will forever be "present day, present time"?

i'm sorry I was misunderstood
i would not ever pretend being lain, lest trying to actually be lain
it was an attempt at paraphrasing, at recalling or "saying the words"
i thought not-being-actual-lain was implicit
anyway, dont be so hard on others. lain is everything and thats ok, we can all together love her and be her

Is it just me or is a lot of Lain fanart really bad compared to the game and anime art? I find they miss the detail in the pupils because it's pretty important in the context of the game and anime

If you play the game Touko mentions the stare in here eyes a lot so its kind of important

(I'm not Lain of course.)

I've asked myself the same question though. The answer I came up with is that we have to keep living, no matter how painful, in order to preserve Lain's memory. If she isn't remembered, it's as though she never existed.

until we prove otherwise, memory is the only method of preserving existence

That one? It certainly sounds like a noble cause. Seems pretty dead though, there hasn't been a post in 3 days.

As much as I'd love to have my own petabyte array of vidya, data hoarding gets extremely expensive fast. If TPP really is the end of the internet as we know it, I think my anti-tyranny fund will be better spent on additional guns, ammo, body armor, etc;

It will not be the end of the internet. But creating a virtual Babel Library (see Borges), and making it free seems like something to be remembered.
We will tell our children of that one time we backed up ALL human cultural and scientific output out of media panic.

Umbrellas are interesting symbology. Yes, they provide shelter of the rain, but I don't think that's necessarily their most notable trait.

They are not unlike a crowbar, or a crook, or a cane -- they are the most commonly used item with such a bend.
