They don’t know shit and they take up too many resources. Nevermind the selfish parents tying up the world’s resources for their next of kin these ppl r pathetic
Are you leaving your parents and yourself as a baby out of this?

We may not want them to contact us. There is the hypothesis that if a civilization learns about another one on another planet, they might eliminate them before they become competition. It would easy to do too. Just hurl some asteroids or comets at the Earth at relativistic speed and we’d be toast.
You all remember just a few weeks ago when Sony ripped away a bunch of movies and TV shows people “owned”? This ad is on Amazon. You can’t “own” it on Prime. You can just access it until they lose the license. How can they get away with lying like this?
I don’t agree that it is ‘morally correct’ to pay $20 for a shitty movie that cost over $100 million to make when that money could have gone to fund 5 much smaller, much better movies just so the studio could shovel money into their Scrooge McDuck moneybin with yet another multimedia tie-in.
Fredric Brown wrote a fun very short story (he was known for page-long short stories) about a scientist who discovered immortality and took the serum, but he had a cold at the time, so the bacteria also became immortal, took over his body, became pneumonia and put him in a coma.

Edit: Found the story. Got the details slightly wrong, but the gist was the same- fb2.top/…/part-16
