    I don’t understand why entire statements come after octothorpes. I get hashtagging stuff and how it might help with organization, but I don’t understand why whole sentences.

    I’m not trying to be pretentious or “dang young people,” I just sincerely don’t understand.

    Other than that I enjoyed the post.

    Any space aliens that see or hear radio waves that find Earth as it is today must be thinking, “WHAT FRESH HELL IS THIS?”

      I mean, in reality, any alien species that can receive and decode our infintesimally small signals is almost certainly thinking, “lolol look at those apes. They’re still playing with rocks.”
