I’d be PSYCHED. For whatever comes. It’d galvanize humanity. I think our problem is that we don’t have enough external enemies. That’s why we fight each other. Best game on the planet. Bet if aliums showed up we’d come together to destroy them and have a barbecue, and we’d lose, but it’d be nice to all feel like friends for once.

Sigh…. If only…

I mean what’s the point of plasma weapons if you can’t see the “oh shit” moment on the face of the inferior species you are destroying?

M A S T E R P I E C E
That’s a damn understatement.
Just the UZI through the stomach. To imagine that’s the dude that made the LOTR films…
You could see some of his old self in The Hobbit when the ogre king falls to his deathand splats down on the ground. That film was a stinker, though, Jackson should go back to doing comedic gore.
This is now a cinema appreciation thread btw.

I think this is basically us.
I feel like we are not alone because the Universe doesn’t do things just once, and the only thing less likely to be the case is if there’s just two species for some reason, they and us. Which gives that life is ubiquitous and therefore not that interesting, so if we were to be contacted it’d be some alien researcher writing another boring thesis on uncontacted civilizations like ours that are about to kill themselves off due to dumb.
Like, maybe they’d catalogue us for posterity or something.

Absolutely!
- Comment on Why do some people (i.e. white conservatives) think all Spanish speakers (especially native Spanish speakers) are Mexican? 1 month ago:
I am going to chalk that one up to prevalence. 20% of the US population is Latin*, half of which are Mexican. The brain kind of works like that, we presume the most common in lieu of other information. If most Spanish people they interact with are Mexican, they will presume Mexican. In your case, of course, they additionally held some preconceived bias about what “Mexicans” believe or act like, and seeing that you spoke Spanish and or said things that fit that cognitive model, it strengthened their (likely largely unconscious) decision to pigeonhole you are Mexican.
(Dumb) people have a need to express the differences they see in others. I have some Ukrainian blood and live in a Western European country, and I get a lot of “Where are you from?” ("I’m from here” “Yes but where are you originally from?” “I am originally from the capital of this country, where I was born” “Yes but what about your parents, or their parents?” “Sigh…")

Is a red supergiant about 700 ly away. Speculation has it that it is nearing the end lf its life cycle. It was discovered and catalogued by Arabs, hence the strange name.
Would you like to know more?
