technically, they wont collide. theyll kinda pass through each other

space is very big

[–] sentient_loom 24 points 5 months ago

yeah good luck with that. I'm taking an umbrella to work just in case.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, we probably won't even notice, even if we hadn't been extinct for millions of years.

[–] sentient_loom 12 points 5 months ago

That's just the kind of lax attitude that might get us extinct

Have a nice cold pint and wait for this whole thing to blow over.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I'm more than happy to jump over to whichever side is winning. Got my Andromeda flag ready to fly as soon as things start leaning in their favor.

Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.

I'm going to put in my request for that day off now. That way if they try to tell me 4.5 billion years from now that I didn't put in my request soon enough, I'm fucking done.

It's still iffy on if they're going to give me the day of the 2038 bug off. I requested off for January 19th 2038 in 2017. Fucking enshitification.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Oh man, you should ALSO have taken off 1.1.1970 (IIRC) to get that day off.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

I love it! I'm definitely going to do that, first thing monday morning. Better nate than lever.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Do we have insurance for that?

[–] Aurenkin 3 points 5 months ago

Hmm, mine specifically excludes acts of Astraios

[–] smuuthbrane 9 points 5 months ago

I'm busy that day.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago

I’ll take a personal day. Maybe I’ll watch, maybe I’ll just slob on the sofa, we’ll see…

[–] cocobean 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I'm scared. I don't want to poop alone when the time comes. Will you be my poop buddy?

[–] cocobean 2 points 5 months ago

Only if we can hold hands

I'm going to enjoy making up new constellations every so many years and using them to mess with people who are into Astrology.

[–] sentient_loom 1 points 5 months ago

Ugh, making up new constellations is my least favorite part of galaxies colliding.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Doesnt matter i wont be around in a form capable of communicating any notice

[–] sentient_loom 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah the attitude is realism. Not for everyone obviously

There's a good chance the solar system (or another star system) will be yeeted from milkdromeda, so I guess I'll move to another star. But who knows if I'll afford one with a billion-year scale inflation.

[–] sentient_loom 1 points 5 months ago

We're a bad apple anyway

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

Put the popcorn on ice and the champagne in the air fryer?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

I expect I'll remain dead unless the eldritch energies unlocked by the collision results in my resurrection.

If I do return to life, I suppose I might be very angry at someone or something, and that I will make him/her/it/them regret what he/she/it/they did, in the finest tradition of cinematic heroes who return from apparent death or exile.

Once I've completed my mission of vengeance, perhaps I'll ride a vehicle or appropriate local domesticated animal towards a local star disappearing over the horizon of whatever planet I'm on, perhaps even with an appropriate romantic partner.

If all of this comes to pass, I would fully expect to be forced to return to resolve increasingly unexpected conflicts ad nauseum.

As I go, I'll likely start to repeatedly indicate that I'm getting far too old for this nonsense, but I'll continue to reluctantly proceed in my conflict resolution every time. Perhaps I'll be able to pass on the fight for justice to another, younger person eventually.

Like I said before, though, I'll likely just stay dead.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

My plan is to have been dead for many, many years before it happens. If I'm not dead by then, I don't think I have much to worry about considering I'm immortal.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

It'll be so much fun when the Earth gets heated out of orbit by gravitational forces. Just, uh, wear a warm coat.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

i'd just greet my new neighbours

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

What is there to plan for? All the planets and stars in both galaxies are so far apart that any physical collision is highly unlikely.

[–] sentient_loom 4 points 5 months ago

You sound like the grasshopper who didn't plan for winter.
