That sounds like such a neat childhood! I wish I had those documentaries growing up.

I got New York, but I just moved out of New York. Was born and raised there, but I don't think I'm going back.

SLVRDRGN OP ,

Thanks for sharing!
Avoiding major plot twists, in our era, seems to require constant vigilance.

SLVRDRGN OP ,

Yes that's right! (With Heather Anne Campbell, Nick Wiger and Matt Apodaca)
That's true - it made me try all kinds of games. And for some, I feel I wish I'd have tried them without knowing what was coming. Though I wouldn't have tried it without knowing... so it's a bit of a paradox.

I think it's cool you let your brother experience it raw like that, since you couldn't.

SLVRDRGN OP ,

Lol @ the CAPS. Thanks for sharing!

SLVRDRGN OP ,

Interesting perspective. There has never been a regret - not even once?
Are you the type that wouldn't mind if someone told you a surprise party was being planned for you? Just wondering.

SLVRDRGN OP ,

Interesting, so for you it was about reaching the point of nonconsent.
Glad you had the pleasure to break it down for your coworkers 😁

SLVRDRGN OP ,

I can only imagine it, but I feel you on both. 😩

"I don't know when that ends". I remember this feeling when I lost my own mother 15 years ago. A friend told me "It's not really about getting over it, but getting through it." It stuck with me - I hope it may help to hear.

What do you think the Great Filter is?

The Great Filter is the idea that, in the development of life from the earliest stages of abiogenesis to reaching the highest levels of development on the Kardashev scale, there is a barrier to development that makes detectable extraterrestrial life exceedingly rare. The Great Filter is one possible resolution of the Fermi...

That expansion at an accelerated rate - that's just so eerie when you think about it. The furthest objects we can see right now will slip away out of reach forever for the next generation, and so on. It's crazy to think that as time goes on, there will be less and less universe to observe.

But the light that reaches us is constantly getting stretched (red-shifted), so I'm not sure that our bubble is growing. Instead when they're stretched too thin, we won't be able to see it. I'm not 100% sure on the expansion rate of the universe and the pace of red shifting.
Also, eventually all the galaxies are expected to be pushed so far away from each other due to the pressures exerted by Dark Energy, that soon we'll only be able to see just the stars of our Milky Way.
