post whatever you want and make it look however you want it to look its your page live and let live y'know
i think tumblr should sue elon musk for infringing on their tumblr blaze trademark with x-née-twitter's new slogan "blaze your glory" it causes market confusion and also i think it would be funny for elon to lose even more money
i used to be the kind of person who looks up at the sky and says "one day we'll travel to the stars"
but as i've gotten older, i've started to think about how foolish and probably impossible that dream is. i don't think traversing the vast emptiness of outer space to colonize distant planets can ever be worth it. launching things into space takes a huge amount of energy and creates so much waste. the mere act harms the earth. and the more we go up there the more we learn about what it takes to just survive up there without our bodies falling apart.
humans aren't separate from the earth we are a part of it, just like any other living thing that came from here. we were made for this particular little blue speck in the infinite universe. that's not a bad thing - i think it's beautiful. the fact that we were born here isn't arbitrary or meaningless. life that develops elsewhere probably wouldn't survive here, or even look like us. the fantasy of going to space and finding out we're not alone is a compelling one to be sure, but it's just a story.
the earth is our home, and as the creatures who have the greatest capacity to shape it we have a responsibility to be its stewards. to seek to exploit it to its breaking point just so we can escape and do the same to other worlds beyond it is to buy into perhaps the biggest hegemonic, capitalist, colonialist lie that was ever told.
