If instead of identifying as humans. We identify with life on earth as a whole. If we relate to the microbes that spawned us and that originally started out on this planet. Then when you think about it we probably already colonized a bunch of planets. And if we want to be more active we can probably launch microbe canisters at viable solar systems. If one hits a good planet and life spreads then in a few million years it may get humans or something similar to humans but certainly related to us.

I mean you and me were never going to go anywhere, regardless of scientific improvement. It was never about us. It was about the idea of our children, or the children of people we relate to in some way. One day escaping this planet. So maybe space colonization was more about changing the way we think.

I am amazed. How did you guys manage to make a USPOL thread into an alien thread.... on a regular basis? How does this have precedent?

Well, look back and ask yourself how you spent over a page in an alien derail and the answer might be somewhere there. This kinda stuff happens depressingly often with us, hence the attempt at making quarantine threads (aliens, primarychat...foodchat seems to be eternal though).

It's cause his face sucks and the edges are too clean giving it an unnatural appearance. It's jarring, like when guys shape their eyebrows too much. He wants to come off as rugged, but too much Trump bullshit has made it impossible for him to do anything but look like he hangs out at the yacht club.

Yeah it's like those pictures of him witting on a log in the woods or posing with dead animals. He wants to look like this rough outdoorsman/hunter, but then you look closer and there's not a speck of dirt on the clothes or on his hands or anything and it's so apparent that even his safaris are just someone else hunting the animal and then positioning it for him to pose next to.

it's too short is part of the problem and he also shaves it too low on his cheeks.

i love that they didn't cut his hair properly over his left ear and nobody noticed and said yeah just throw this pic on the cover.

He looks like he can't relax because every time he was ever messy he probably thought of his dad knocking him down for not wearing a suit to a baseball game. Meanwhile his father looks like a sack of poo poo, but he's not sloppy in the traditional way that you would associate with slobs. Every ridiculous thing Donald does with his appearance his a desperate attempt to cover up what either his bad genes saddled him with that he just can't accept and work around with dignity, or things that he's too lazy to actually work at, like a real tan or losing weight. When Trump looks in the mirror he probably sees how Ben Garrison draws him while trying to push down the bad thoughts telling him the truth. I'd feel sorry for both of them if they didn't so enthusiastically try to embrace shittiness with their every action.
