I, for one, am ready for the sun to consume us all.

I'm not. We need to get star lifting going, and turn the solar system into our command ship, using the sun as the engine, and structural basis.

"So after a million years of putting off adjustment maintenance, the size of the sun has grown to critical levels and it is now too late. We will be evacuating at the next solar system in 120 [MINUS FIVE] years and diverting all available resources to emergency maintenance in the mean time. This announcement is a recording." Frickin' humans, eons of progress and can't even do eons of progress right.
