There's this game called "Split Fiction" where a virtual reality company invites unpublished authors to share their stories but it ends up that the company is trying to steal their ideas. I can tell you as an author- NO ONE wants to steal the ideas of unpublished authors. It's virtually impossible to find an agent unless you're already established with a large following. In real life that company wouldn't touch them with a ten foot pole.

In my day, you had to go through a grueling training camp in South Armagh to be a terrorist. These days, some vegan teenager in Montana waves a sign and all of a sudden, ICE thinks he’s Osama bin Laden.

We work for the state and live in an enclave of state employees, but none of the dentists around here accept the states insurance. Trying to find one that does...is like pulling teeth.
There, I said it, it's out of my system now. I'm sorry.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
Do any of y'all have a better "ideal world" idea than my garden idea?

Considering how many movies have been made out of conspiracy theories (JFK, Shakespeare, Lindbergh's baby), someone should make a movie about Paul McCartney dying and being replaced by a doppelganger in 1966 whose name is William Campbell.
Maybe it could be that William is a fan who discovers he can look like Paul and sing like Paul, so he kills him to replace him. Then Brian Epstein finds out and decides not to tell the police, but instead forces other Beatles members to accept this new guy as Paul because there's a lot of money at stake. So they play along, leaving subliminal clues to the fans (eg. on Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album gatefold photograph, McCartney is wearing a black armband featuring the letters ‘OPD’ – ‘officially pronounced dead’).
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
