It's gonna turn out that these are un-manned probes or some poo poo that the aliens send out to any and everywhere in the galaxy/universe that they even think has a HINT of life or resources available and there's, literally, billions or trillions of these things flying around out there and they've been studying the planet for generations to determine how to best utilize it it should they ever need to or are just, essentially, cataloging poo poo for their ever expanding universal awareness and we're pissing them off by interfering with their drones

The aliens need to have sex with an organism with a butt or they die, hence the drones need to test for this

Shouldn't it be "UFO are real"? Surely UFO is the both the singular and the plural since in the initialization both object and objects are represented by the O.

The truth is out there.




quote:

Human slaves can never defy their alien masters -- or can they?

Rose Rico never believed the rumors, that the government was secretly selling human beings to the Alphas in exchange for advanced alien technology. The idea that human sex slaves were a luxury item throughout the galaxy was just too ridiculous to take seriously -- until Rose found herself, along with hundreds of other human captives, bound for the far reaches of space, and compelled to cater to the depraved desires of her new alien masters.

As a rule, pleasure slaves don't live very long, especially the stubborn ones. But Rose refuses to give up. Someday, somehow, she'll win back her freedom -- or die trying!

The beginning of a provocative new saga of slavery and rebellion.

What the jacket blurb fails to mention is that humans are the only sapient species that is always horny. All the rest, like many animals on earth, have a mating season. They are only occasionally horny, but then they are super horny -- cat in heat horny. Unfortunately interstellar travel messes with their rhythms, so even when there are a bunch of members of the same species on a space station, they all get horny at different times. Our one unique and valuable quality is that we are always down to gently caress.

Well, from an ontological viewpoint Humans come from the base branch of animals that evolved from the rear end outward (rather than from the mouth downward) so really they're just being thorough in starting analysis from the beginning, as it were.

I will never stop laughing if aliens show up one day and they are not some 2001 enlightened beings ~the universe exploring itself~ hogwash but red neck capitalists looking to trade for hanjobs, expensive german cars and The Apprentice air rights.

Carl Sagan was really good at playing into the prevailing myths of his day and dropping vaguely-plausible sounding alien stuff that would then lead to funding for legitimate science. For being a major idol of the modern atheist movement, the dude often spoke entirely in religious terminology.

Like, look at this incredible bullshit.



This was engraved on a plate with the stated reason being that, if aliens (or some other super-far-future civilization's residents) discover the satellite millions of years from now, they can tell exactly when it was sent up. It has all the common hallmarks of Sagan bullshitting people about aliens, like just assuming that they would read and comprehend 2-dimensional images. But this one is especially bad because not only are we assuming reading (and very specifically the type of reading that only humans do), we have to assume that they will be able to understand two-column layout (because apparently they ran out of room to fit in the binary numbers), as well as assume that they understand what an arrow image represents (and that an arrow pointing left means "back" while an arrow pointing right means "forward"). Then, to top it all off, we have to not only assume that they will know enough about our planet's continental drift, but that they'll be able to specifically understand a low-res Robinson projection map as actually being representative of the planet's landmasses and their locations.

So basically, the whole thing is bullshit. But it's the type of bullshit that the "I loving love science!" crowd eats up with a spoon, and at least in the 70s that was enough to get you a few million in funding so you can launch a satellite that will actually be able to do some worthwhile science.

Makes sense.

Tree Hugger --> Won't suicide/kamikazee.
Vegan --> Won't eat me.

Humanity is, "kill everyone in the room then itself,"-level crazy. See: Climate Change.

I googled UFO Cults. This jumped out:

quote:

[...] Palmer also suggested that Raëlism had an appeal for "committed atheists who are hopelessly secularized yet suffering from the existential angst of living in a world devoid of order and higher values."[273]

You could sell that with environmentalism and Star Trek.
