As Leslie Knope is already taken, I choose Susan Sto Helit. It would have been so fun to be in her class, too.

A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

Motoko Kusanagi.
How, is she when she doesn't surf?
I wonder what she does when she wakes up.
...
How, does she so perfectly surf?

She's incredible math.
Jared Keeso is pretty much Wayne or Shoresy in real life. I suggest you let that marinate.

Cthulhu, if only to mix up the goddamn headlines for a bit.
My dad
Optimus Prime. I wish giant robot dad was around to fix mine and the world's problems.
Robin Hood.
Totoro.
The Thing
The Great Sage, Heaven's Equal, the handsome monkey king Sun Wukong.
Not sure he'd care to fix things, but it would be different if there was a benevolent unbeatable power in the world.
A really good "people first in mind" politician. But that's only in fairy tales.
This characters punches are as powerful as nukes, can survive being hit by several nukes, has nearly indestructible arms, can fly really fast, being able to reach space in seconds, has managed to invent interplanetary teleportation, knows about the afterlife, even making an ability that prevents people he killed from coming back to life, can destroy the observable universe by concentrating for a minute and does not require food, water or oxygen
The planet he ruled seemed pretty peaceful
A nice variant of a genie could also work

I’ll go with an obscure one and say TRON. I think it would be really incredible if there was an actual sentient program on my computer that worked actively to maintain, improve, and secure my system.
We get a limited view of that on the movies, but I would really enjoy being able to just open communication with the computer directly and ask it to help with complex work.
Essentially AGI instead of LLM.

Jackalope
The Vision.
Indestructible, level-headed, compassionate mind-reader? All the world's big problems would be solved overnight.
(Assuming no Corvus Glaive)
Not a person, but a place. Namely the prison from Red Dwarf where everything you do to someone else, you did to yourself.

V. Rather give me anarchy if our shitty government is the alternative.
