"In my memories they're always working. Working and working. ... And how hard they worked. Thinking about them, my heart aches. They'd worked all their lives. They never made any money. Growing up, we thought that was the anomaly of socialism: you work like a dog, without any prospect of making enough money to take a break, to have a peaceful retirement, to have something to leave behind to your children.
Now, in the "promised country" where, as we are told, hard work is always rewarded, I'm finding out that this hopelessness wasn't unique to socialism - at this moment in history it is the prescribed way of living for the enslaved working masses that support a rarefied bunch of assorted billionaires. And that crippling feeling of hopelessness we thought was a specialty of the socialist society is slowly creeping into all our lives, no matter where and under what kind of rule we live."
- Mira Furlan, Love Me More than Anything in the World

Can you sum up Keith’s book on how he started and what went on in the 60s but only about the 60s ?
I honestly can't, only because I didn't read the whole book yet. But I remember when it came out, a lot of critics said they were shocked Keith even remembered so much about his life, especially in the 60s and 70s, considering he was stoned throughout much of that time. However, there was one thing that really stuck out to me. It was when Keith was talking about that era of the mid-1960s when the Rolling Stones finally got on and London became the epicenter of music, fashion, culture and they were right there in the middle (if not on top) of it. He claimed, “It was like the world went from black & white to technicolor.”

I know, there's the possibility that Tochiro COULD be a 30th century reincarnation of Nobotta's spirit, BUT....
There's also the possibility (and somewhat common assumption??) that Nobotta is Tochiro's literal ancestor. Like, genetic ancestor.
Which means that this fella...
This motherfucker living a lonely life in a run-down boarding house struggling to make ends meet and ends up cooking the mushrooms growing out of his pants sitting all wet and musty in his closet...
Eventually ended up with a chick who ACTUALLY loves him and ISN'T just using him or getting scared off by his antics.
And apparently, according to Leiji himself, after the events of the manga, Nobotta ended up working as a whaler and made actual money from then onward and even went back to the boarding house to meet ol Mr. Bird again. Good for him. ^w^
And he also apparently wrote a follow-up about one of Nobotta's descendants at some point. So yeah, he DID eventually have a sex life. He eventually got to bangin' and had at least one kid!
I mean hey, if Tochiro can end up having a daughter with a badass pirate lady like Emeraldas in the 30th century, Nobotta can someday have a beautiful loving wife/girlfriend in the 1970s as well. Anything is possible.
