A bit of a weird wish, but I'd definitely wish that whenever I want I could be looking at a living person (either through TV or a photo), see their age, and be able to adjust it at will. I would finally be able to turn the US legislators into the babies they are.

interesting superpower. i wonder if this has been done before?

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

I don't know if it has been explored in great depths in general media, but I know just about every single cartoon I've ever seen has done at least one episode involving age regression. I also know that season 3 episode 9 (Secret Agent Bear) of Yogi's Treasure Hunt they had Dick Dastardly was trying to hold world leaders ransom with fountain of youth water and that's the closest I can think of to this super power that I've seen in popular media.

And my first thought to that idea was "ah yes, preserve Danny DeVito for years to come."
