Bro I love Cryptopsy, their album None So Vile slays!

Air is a gaseous fluid.

This is just how birds look at all of us.

Nobody else has even heard of my favorite film.

A Pyromaniac’s Love Story

Okay so I know I’m not a spider but like, where do I sign up for these trials?

I think part of why it feels so non-impactful to you is because 9/11 truly set off a chain of events that has led to the situation we’re in, including the many tragedies you mention in your comment. Of course 9/11 doesn’t exist in a vacuum, and it itself is just a one part of a much more complex web of actions and decisions, but the fact remains that for most common people 9/11 was an absolute tipping point after which nothing is the same. The sort of horrors you’re talking about in the world in the wake of 9/11 just weren’t the same kind of reality in the world before, at least not with the same intents and reactions thereto. You’re right to think it’s strange the way people react to and hold 9/11 because you’re never experienced the world before it. And to be clear, I am not saying the world was perfect before or that there weren’t horrors before, because their were, but 9/11 became a catalyst for so much reactionary evil and overreach and horror that it simply is non-comparable to what came before.

important note: this entire comment and perspective implies an enormous Western post-colonial bias. People in different parts of the world had and have an enormously different reality especially in regards to this event and I will not pretend to be able to speak to their experience.

If you know about the Tree-star, it’s time to have a doctor check out your B-star.

And was probably said by various people before that too, whatever. The point is this is an obvious derivative.

Somebody really enjoyed the success of the quicksand tweet and was hoping for an encore

No you don’t

Oh so Mary does it and people spend the next thousand years making statues and paintings in her honor, but Elena does it and gets blasted on social media?

Hypocrites

Y’all have got to stop this shit. Real people use real grammar.

Good for them, but until EGS starts being more pro- consumer, I’m not spending a cent there

Damn, it’s almost like he actually has no moral integrity and will simply say whatever serves his personal interests in the moment.

Maybe we should start working from that assumption anytime he speaks.

Some bikes cost $15k, others $1k

This really makes me want to show up to a cycling event with a $200 Huffy

Fr, when I hear bike my default thought is always like a $200 Huffy, not these pro-sumer things that cost nearly as much as a damn car

Alright, valid, you’re right, the presented limiting factor in the meme is in fact the SoL and not actually man’s ability to reach it. I concede, cheers.

Except that a large point of my comment is pointing out the hubris of man, so it’s important to note that ants are not hyperintelligent. They organize and build, but there is a finite limitation to their capability, at least in this and any known previous state of their evolution. Like that we are the most intelligent thing on our little planet doesn’t imply to me that we are not effectively to scale with ants on the cosmic level.

Of course, but I’m trying to work within the established framework of the meme here

It does sort of feel like we’re in the butthole of universes, doesn’t it?

Do you believe that the wide expanses of our planet Earth were crafted for the common ant to explore?
