Amazing news. I always laugh at people who say there aren’t extraterrestrials. One of the most illogical positions to take.

I imagine the radio signals we emit are being picked up by whomever sent this.
 

Clearly yes, these friendly aliens are responding to all those radio signals we sent 400+ million years ago.

I always laugh at people who think that, in a galaxy that is 13.5 billion years old, there is any chance that intelligent life could have evolved at the same time on two separate planets.

It is far more likely that if intelligent life evolved on another planet, that it progressed to an advanced state and then died out rather than our timeline and their timeline overlapping.

I always laugh at people who think the universe is 13.5 billion years old.  The age of the universe is impossible for us to know at this time since we don’t even know what constitutes the vast majority of it. 

That said, the likelihood of civilizations from other planets finding and interacting with us or vice versa is damn near nonexistent.  However, our mere existence on an individual level is the result of an infinite number of events occurring just right (from the perspective of us as individuals existing) and thus incredibly unlikely so it’s still possible if not remotely likely.

I’m going back to drinking and playing dark souls now

Man, I'm so disappointed in Hbomb right now. Gonna stick with Thought Slime for the foreseeable future since he's sufficiently left wing to me, and so far hasn't seemed to be shit against anyone that hasn't deserved it. Here's hoping that won't change. Soon.

I said galaxy you    not universe and the latest research suggests that the Milky Way galaxy is around 13.5 billion years old.

Galaxy, universe, as far as our knowledge of either goes we know next to nothing in the grand scheme of things.  All I’m saying is we don’t know what we don’t know and definitively stating something based on the tiny slice of the picture we have is silly.

Besides Cats and Little Women, it's probably my favorite movie of 2019.

Thought about taking some LSD and going to Cats but I think 1917 will be better.

Definitely take LSD and go see 1917

I know I'm a lurker and all, but goddamn, it kinda sickens me how transparently hypocritical and knee-jerk portions of Era are in threads like this:

https://www.resetera.com/threads/racist-maga-covington-kid-who-smirked-in-the-face-of-native-american-protester-to-receive-settlement-from-cnn.163511/

Like, yeah, the kid is probably an asshole, but CNN savaged him and opened him up to all kinds of harassment, including death threats. He didn't even do anything overtly racist and probably exercised his right to be there in about as de-escalating a way as possible. Grown ass adults routinely handle that situation far worse. I thought harassment was bad... m-kay, but no... it's just more goddamned rah-rah-my-side-or-die bullshit.

you're fine tho

death threats on the opposing side win the argument every time

I'mma code up a site where you can fill out some info about the type of death threat required and it automatically generates a few twitter users who will post low key death threats and screencaps the tweets for you after an hour or two for authenticity

Lol hydrophilic attack openly arguing with a mod for not doing enough and they are allowing it.  Is Era trying to lose even more authority?

Do you think this poster was NOT being an ass about it? Especially after I had already EXPLAINED the exact point I was making and they straight up called me a liar? I try to be nice, but when people are being rude against me (calling me a liar) I tend to get a bit catty in response.

Honestly, I'm very disappointed with how you're moderating this. Someone is accusing me of lying and when I try to defend myself against such accusations you only call out me

sorry tho what in the god damn fuck

Right. In this thread and/or in the last we did have at least one person accusing Sanders critics of being antisemitic so it it was in the air. Sorry again that I misunderstood you.

I'd also like an apology for accusing me of lying after my first attempt at clarification:

assuming they had apologized here hydrophilic later would state "yeah but I had to ask for it which is almost worse than receiving no apology at all and shows an absolute lack of empathy on your part"

Please consider my previous apology as an overall blanket one for any and all misunderstandings and grievances that might have arisen from them. Cheers!

So you can't even bring yourself to explicitly apologize for calling me a liar

I find that disappointing

I hate non-apologies :/

 

non-apologies are when you say "sorry your fee fees were hurt" or never actually utter the words "I'm sorry"

literally saying you're sorry, even a blanket one for all wrongs done, is a complete apology

and what is this fucking interpretation of the sanctity of the action, is 1 (One) Apology redeemable for a free year of Disney+ or what

. No to both questions. The cuts probably don't exist and the article isn't saying "STARS WARS FANDOM BAD11!!!".

It's observing a phenomenon that is being seen in day-to-day life with worrying effect. The same spheres of misinformation & organized harassment that fuel Q-Anon, Pizzagate, etc. are being represented in every fandom we can think of: Tesla defenders, PewDiePie fans, DCEU fans, etc.
