Why do you think the planet can’t sustain some amount of people? It’s not because we don’t have enough space, we have plenty of space – especially if we prioritize car-free or low-car dense urban infrastructure design. The problem is we don’t have enough resources. Even if we could send a bunch of people into space, that doesn’t do anything for our problem at all. In fact, it just increases the strain on our resources.

Space stations require a lot of maintanence and monitoring, we can’t just make a few billion of them and then hope it’ll work out. It’s far too complicated and unsustainable without very hard-to-find professionals. And a few easy mistakes by this completely untrained and unprofessional crew of an unimaginable amount of people can put everyone in danger. Whatever habitat could fit hundreds of thousands to millions of people has a TON of failure points, with our current technology it is in a sense too big to not catastrophically fail in a short time period. Space is dangerous, death is easy, sabatoging the entire vessel carrying everyone is easy, and maintaining one is extremely difficult and it would have many easy-to-miss potential problems. It’s not as nice as video games make it out to be, especially considering those are usually hundreds of years in the future or in a totally different universe.

We’re all going to die of worldwide war before we find any use in sending a million people into space, and we’re going to die before we can even feasibly do it at all, probably. I would like to see it, but it’s just a massive waste of resources if we’re being realistic – there is nothing to achieve with it.

bruh i do software development, i don’t need “excuses”. i’m pointing out your ignorance of the real world

“the corporate ladder” is a fucking hoax lol, it is almost entirely only a concept for those born privileged

me with my aphantasia

it sucked. i don’t even know how you could get it wrong, but they sure as hell went above and beyond to do it

italians and other europoors eat completely raw or undercooked meats every now and then, including raw chicken and raw pork.

plenty of european cultural dishes would be highly illegal to serve here in the US of A (and i am glad for that)

Yeah this isn’t Reddit but more than 80% (>4/5) of Twitter is bots. It’s to the point where you can find any blue checkmark account, reply to them with a prompt, and more likely than not they’ll have a wacky and clearly autogenerated response. Sometimes they just reply things like “sorry, I can’t generate content that depicts violence” to random posts too.

Dead internet theory is almost a reality and I hate it. It’s already happened to Google search results / blogs.
