You have the ability to control any person in the world for one minute, what do you do with this ability?
Only one time use.
Think of like world leaders, celebrities, ya know ๐. Are you gonna make them do some embarassing things, or illegal acts.
My answer:
People are going to say Trump and Putin and all that shit, but I'm going to control my boss and have him double my salary.
Only thinking of yourself, tsk tsk.
We're at a point in world politics where taking out one person isn't going to change much anyway.
Ooh - Jeff Bezos, and some way to irreversibly triple every non-executive Amazon worker/contractor's pay, plus full healthcare. He can afford it and Amazon has enough direct and indirect workers that it'll be felt throughout the country and the economy, and other companies will eventually be forced to compete, raising living standards for most people (and increasing tax revenue).
End with a tweet supporting an inflation-linked living wage, Medicare for All, and UBI.
Denied by HR
NEXT
Even magic won't make me more money. =C
Sounds good, but what's to stop them from changing it right back once the minute is up?
I'll give myself a raise and then self-immolate him. No takesy backsies.
Make the Pope announce his conversion to Buddhism (and declare it an infallible doctrine of faith, ex cathedra).
Oh that's a good one. Get the pope to pass a bull offering everyone salvation, past, present, future, fictional, factual, human, animal, spirit.
They'd reverse it quickly, but it would be too late. It happened.
And because the Holy See has ecclesiastic jurisdiction (as we all learned in Dogma ) then it would totally count. Heaven for everyone.
And if there are angels in Wisconsin cursed by God and breaking divine infallibility unmakes the universe (it doesn't) then the world would end.
Okay, I've had a nice nap, so here's the answer: I'd take over Putin's body, demand the nearest person's gun, and rid the world of him (Putin) once and for all.
I would save it for an armed person protecting a full cabinet meeting after january 15th.
Fox news be like: "DEMOCRAT DEEP STATE ANTIFA SLEEPER AGENT..."
Edit: Btw inauguration is Jan 20, you got your dates mixed up
yeah better make it febuary just to be sure. thanks. that could have been a disaster if I had gotten superpowers or a genie wish.
Not a lot you can do in one minute. Maybe a tweet? so would have to take the muskrat.
"After a discussion with president elect orange turdball I will be shutting down X January next year, you can find me over on Truth Social"
Then sign him out of twitter from each device in range.
Musk -> nearest window
News be like: "ANTIFA Sleeper Agent Activated by DEMOCRAT DEEP STATE and ASSASSINATED [Person Name]!"
Your action was a lot less violent than mine.
The best part of this would not be the act itself but the insane mental gymnastics that Americans would put themselves through to deny or justify it so as to result in, ultimately, no change at all.
finally take a swan dive down the stairs and break my neck.
Think you'd even be able to get his feet off the ground?
Make Putin jump through a high rise window.
Ah i see we think alike. Except i would have it during a live video and make it look like he 'accidentally' topped out. People would be like "he... he actually just fell out of a window"
It's a real problem, these high windows
Lol, people would just think he got couped
Gotta keep the tradition you know ๐
Wait til I know he's having a summit with KJU and blam him first, then any generals standing nearby, then self
The person who approves or denies new shows on Netflix or something and then spend the next minute approving as many animated shows as I can.
That'd take more than a minute.

The End.
Inb4 and during Trump + gun
Nah, won't do shit except cause more chaos and Vance would invoke insurrection act. Not remotely worth it.
Have Musk denounce trump would make it more funny.
The actual problem here is that it's not clear when he will be near a gun to the point that someone could do that. You only have a minute. Is Trump within a minute's range of a gun and would not be stopped by his security detail if he tried to use it?
My thought process is: Turn to security guy, say, "gib gun plz, pres order". Offhand I dunno if they'd comply, but worth a shot (see what i did there?)
Take over a billionaire and tell assistant to transfer 5m to real me and never mention it again or he will be fired.
That's sus af.
Just set up a bitcoin wallet before you use the ability. Then take control of someone like musk, who definitely has some bitcoins, transfer all to your wallet.
Untraceable! (ish)
Very traceable, in fact. Do you know how bitcoins work?
The issue is when you try to spend the bitcoins. You'll eventually reveal some of your personal info when doing so, unless you are willing to work with the underground. Might go well, might end up with you in a ditch or a cell.
I can't login to my own Coinbase in under a minute, let alone someone else's.
Monero
The only people it would be ethical to use this on are those in permanent vegetative states... and myself.
I think I'd opt for one minute of true self-control. Maybe I could overclock myself or something. Never know until you try.
Nice job of spotting the philosophical.
I say doctors should have a way to do this with patients to deterministically diagnose a person, (with consent of course). I'd do that in a heartbeat with my chronic issues.
Best commenti ever!
Take over Clearance and have him shoot kegStand. Based on the timing, the next 58 seconds can be a sick rant about guns.
If sleepy Joe is on the ball, he'll have two young replacements in mind.
Have Trump take off his diaper on TV and say "my smol wee wee has poo poo on it, me sad"
Give it like a month and you won't have to waste your one ability use on this.
Are you trying to get him elected a third time?
Is supporters would eat that up. "He's just so brave and relatable."
Probably one of musks 50 body guards.
I would control King Charles and have him order the dissolution of the empire.
Can that include the end of the monarchy itself, please? ๐
That would be nice too.
Some crypto bro bastard is about to lose their holdings...
Make someone edit the balance of my bank account. I think you can buy a lot of things, including further immoral services with cash. I hope there is someone who can do it in 1 minute and doesn't require any review by other people.
This would undoubtedly backfire just like that TikTok "hack" that happened a while ago. (If you're out of the loop, it boiled down to writing yourself a bad cheque for a ridiculous amount, and then spending the money that appeared in your account before it bounced. Presto! Cheque fraud! Bad things are coming to you soon!)
"We're sorry to inform you that you have spent money wrongly credited to your account. You now owe us all that money back and we've slapped on a 100% interest rate for good measure. You could fight this in court, but we have more money than Croesus, so you'll lose. Sincerely YourBank Inc."
Make this useless toxic twat at work do something so stupid she'd be fired immediately and never be able to get her job back.
why so salty?
I don't think it's possible to pull that off. There might be tools to send SMS to every active number but figuring out how that software works takes way more than 1min. Even if you also get the knowledge there might be several security measures in place, like additional approvement before sending.
I would control Putin and check the famous russian window.
Biden: order seal team to take out any and all known associates to the MAGA movement. Do this under extreme secrecy and urgency, using all classified information related. Also any controlling parties to the GOP and DNC.
Mitch first for old times sake.
As Netanyahu start screaming in to the nearest camera.
"This is the one true voice of God, Of course this man commits genocide! His final solution to Palestinians is to smite every hospitals, school and refugee until none remain! Those that help him kill shall be damned with him. Repent!"
Figure that is immposible for him to explain away and would end his support. Killing him wouldn't stop the killing, but discrediting him among the religious might.
Only downside is it would cement religion as a fact, but I guess if I got magic possession powers then it end my skeptical agnosticism about higher powers anyways.
"What a weird deepfake. These Iran's useful idiots are spreading lies again!"
All his genocidal suporters will just believe him.
Make someone kill me tbh
To OP and others giving similar answers; ok, so you take control of the person...
Do you actually know how to do the things you say?
Using OP as an example, do you know how to use those hacking tools? Do you know how to go about hacking everyone's phone? Because otherwise the only thing you'll have access to for a minute is whatever is in arms reach of said NSA agent.
Shhhh if every movie director thought about movie plots deeper, we'd have 90% less movies. ๐
As someone with ADHD, Iโd immediately get myself doing the things I want to be doing. Manipulating/screwing over others? No thanks. The havoc I wreak just in myself is plenty enough
Wouldn't you just get distracted and put it off for later like you already do when you already have control of yourself albeit through the very same ADHD-addled brain you were hoping would for some reason spend the one, in some way supernatural minute, highly effectively?
Well I hope not. Worth trying it out I think
Do a whole lot of research, then take control of the president, and pardon people for a minute. As far as I'm aware, it takes effect as long as someone hears, or I write it down or something.
