    it just dawned on me that kelly is a perfect analogue for our discussion on irony/commercialism @Eddy

    is satire that is literally indistinguishable from what it's satirizing still satire?

    if the only clue that it is satire is contextual?

    Oh Kurzgesagt, you silly, the Fermi paradox is simple to explain:


    All of the other civilizations built over time in the galaxy by other species went dark, and their species extinct. As will ours, just as with all of our precursor civilizations (the fun part is knowing that a) All of those other civilizations probably or certainly - in the case of our precursors - died somehow, b) Knowing how ours could die, and contemplating which pill will be our poison).

    The promise of a high concept space faring future built on the back of science is a lie.

    The election thread had to institute a ban on satire because it was becoming indistinguishable from reality.

    wow is doing a thing

    i started hearing dark whispers and it gave me a new ability bar to cause hysteria and turn invisible and shit, I made some people fight the guards at the bank and then I got killed by the town because invisibility was on cooldown

    I guess you can turn into a demon if you keep it up long enough

    It's the size of the galaxy & the time said galaxy has been around that creates the paradox, though:

    If there are plenty of planets (and there are, we now know this thanks to efforts like the Kepler scope), and there has been plenty of past history for intelligent life to develop, and if our own development pace is typical... where is everyone? Someone, by the standards set by high concept futurists & Moore's Law, should have colonized at least a sizeable portion of the Galaxy, if not nearly the entire thing. There should be debris almost everywhere, and signals bouncing off of everything.


    Instead, there is no debris anywhere, and no detectable signals at all.


    So, either somehow all of these advanced civilizations are undetectable (implausible), or we are so special & unique & Jesus loves us (Gag me; will no doubt be disproven as soon as we're able to dig for fossils in old Martian river beds, goodness knows if that'll be in my lifetime though), or they're all ash & bones on coffin worlds - either of their own machinations or because they ran out of time to figure-out how to travel into space before their sun got too old.

    Why are turnips still cultivated and eaten?

    They taste awful and don't provide any nutrition you couldn't get elsewhere.

    Is it just the inertia of history that keeps people growing and eating such a horrible "food"?

    Blasphemer!


    Turnips are a 100% crunchy source of crunchiness that can be added at low cost to a variety of western take-out 'Chinese' foods, such as Chow Mein / Sweet & Sour Pork / Chicken Balls + Rice. There are those of us who live & die by that fckn crunch when we bite into our Chow Mein, sir.


    (There are also alternative turnip-like food products that are sometimes used but whatever it's the same Goddamn principle!)

    That's no a very good analogy for either our optical or radio astronomy observations, though. If there are radio signals bouncing around (and those things have a pretty good shelf life & range, and they travel at nearly the speed of light), we should have detected at least some fragments of them. Wandered into the equivalent of some civilization's expanding radio footprint, like our own on Earth (but presumably much more massive, given a posited civilization that has colonized some substantial portion of the milky way).
