Maybe the Earth is the galaxy’s hot new drive-in – we make for a fun reality show, no? Does ET have popcorn?

I’m far less terrified of not being alone in the universe than being alone. Thinking we’re *that* special is sheer hubris. 

If you want to know why I think it’s sheer arrogance, check out Scale of the universe. (Do yourself a favour and turn off sound.)

Have a great weekend y’all.
