It’s very likely that the Earth military lobbed it toward earth as a pretext for war. The big planet was light years away (across the galaxy? I forget) and there was propaganda extolling the orbital defenses of Earth right before the hit. They had an orbital ring station around the Moon! No way they could miss a rock that big.

Nearly everyone seems at least slightly crazy to me, definitely including me, but especially neurotypicals.

Would if I could. Nobody is gonna send me money for nudes.
They ought to pay the models better too.

My dad’s advice sums up basically to “come back to Jesus.” Mom was far worse, but she died recently.
- Comment on Fucking pigeons 2 weeks ago:
They did not start this way. We domesticated them. Then we rejected them. They’re still figuring out how to be wild again. All those pigeons you see are the descendants of formerly beloved pets that we threw outside without a care around 150 years ago.
- Comment on Fucking pigeons 2 weeks ago:
For millennia they were beloved pets and messengers. We bred independence out of them and doted upon them. Then we invented the telephone and cast them all out into the wild en masse. It’s amazing they’ve survived this well.
They are as we made them, and as we rejected them.

Honestly, it sucks. I have never been able to ask advice from either of my parents as an adult. Of course as a teen they seemed dumb to me, but even then I recognized that I was a teenager and that perception was typical for my age. But they never got any smarter. Frankly, the older I’ve grown, the more like children my parents seem to me. As a kid they always told me I was super smart. Now as an adult, do they listen to me if I try to correct their mistakes? They do not. They’ve been suckers for cons my whole life.
And no, I’m nowhere near as smart as they led me to think.

I work at heights daily, climbing 100m towers. I’m also scared of heights. I’ve done some cliff dives into deep water as another way to face that fear. It takes a force of will for me to jump off more than about 10m. Sure wish I enjoyed that thrill.

You don’t need a degree to be a scientist, all you need is to apply the scientific method to your quest for knowledge.
Micheal Faraday never attended schools after about the age of 8. Look around and see the world he gave you.

Which requires them to output DC rather than AC, so they require inverters to change it to AC. It’s handier for battery storage though.

- Comment on Anon is a nostalgic gamer 1 month ago:
I used to roleplay as a pirate, pickpocket, swindler, and ladies man; laughably incompetent at all, under this username in a tiny, indie RPG called Rubies of Eventide. I was never a strong player, but I got a reputation for funny in-game banter. Playing a different kind of person enabled me to punch above my weight in social skills.

It’s quite likely a belief that sunscreen lotion is a bad thing that harms people. Found that one out from an old high school crush from FL. She looks like leather now.

Probably because symptoms of mesothelioma take decades to develop, and I only encountered that stuff around a few holiday seasons in my earliest memories.

To prove it was safe. They knew it wasn’t, so they changed public opinion by marketing.
“Of course it’s safe! Look how safe it is! It’s fun for the whole family! What do you think we are, monsters?”

Oh yes, the market will grind us all into a thin gruel for another dollar.
