Can I choose the future? Ideally some sort of utopia like the federation in startrek?

History hasn't been kind. I would probably need to cosplay a business tycoon or something to survive earlier.

If I go too far back it'll probably be nice. But I'd probably die due to an infection brought on by my autoimmune issues.

I think you should have to pick a year and hope for the best. otherwise it's no different then choosing some fantasy past like 'medieval times, but non violent and progressive, and no plagues.'

You make a wonderful point.

I'd pick 1999, Akihabara. So I can experience early anime culture at the source.
