how do you cope?
Panic attacks, mostly
We actually have hundreds of photos of Earth from space and more than a few astronauts that make it a full-time hobby to photograph our little blue marble. There is a perfectly reasonable explanation (two actually) for why those photos look fake, and while far more mundane, it doesn’t require the application of any ridiculous conspiracy theories.
Explanation Uno: There isn’t anything in space like a pesky atmosphere to get the way of the camera lens and create distortions and imperfections. The result is images that look a little too crisp, a little too clean, and a little too colorful. They don’t look like the ‘normal’ images we are used to, so our brains tell us it’s wrong or fake. It’s called the uncanny valley, which is typically applied to images of people but it’s relevant to anything that breaks our normal just a little.
Explanation Zwei: The images are actually fake, or rather they are false color images. Pictures are great, but it’s kinda hard to do a lot of science if all one ever does is look at the visible color spectrum, so we also take pictures in other spectrums like infrared, radio, or ultraviolet. However, since our pathetic human eyes can’t see those wavelengths, we have to recolor them to something we can see in the visible light range (hot things are colored blue, cold things are colored red, etc.). It’s not lying, it’s just better science.
There are plenty of things in this world actually worth being concerned about, especially right now, but if none of this convinced you, let me ask you this; Why? Why would anyone fake every single photo of Earth ever taken from space? Why (or more importantly, how) would literally everyone agree to lie about going to space?
Honestly, been drowning in life so much lately that I forgot the Super Bowl even happened, lol
Did not realize they actually changed the name for realsies yet
I fucking love how there is basically only one comment on this entire post
I expected this ages ago, I must have superpowers or something
Musk always looks like he just shit his pants and is realizing he shouldn’t have trusted it
Are yall actually happy or are you just pretending to be because your realizing you fucked up big time with this one
The Cunts are doing a hell of a lot more than just cutting “government waste”, they are attempting to dismantle any system that might oppose them and using this chaos and confusion as their weapon. There is a reason these articles are only ever a couple of paragraphs long, even they don’t believe their own horseshit.
I, with nothing but a criminal amount of free time and a splash of insanity, could probably maintain a nearly perfect, up-to-date, and highly detailed list of every single major holiday observed in the world, and I’m a dumbass with no money. Pretty sure Google could afford a couple extra holidays if they cut the budget of the racism department.
Would much rather pay a small developer directly than be force-fed ads, even if the excuse is that the ads pay the bills. I don’t think this is a particularly unique sentiment and there are plenty of less scummy ways to generate funding than by running advertisements.
People are already not surviving, literally and figuratively, the time has long since come and gone to “hope” the problem isn’t real. The problem very much here, and it is absolutely going to kill us unless we do something about it right fucking now.
