Rightious

The three binding forces of everything.

No contradiction.
Simply poor communication on my part.

Thanks for having an opened mind. It is a wonderful thing.

You forgot "lawful," "true" and "neutral."

I prefer Chaotic Neutral.

Took me a while to find this:

High-energy (from 80 GeV to ~10 TeV) gamma rays arriving from far-distant quasars are used to estimate the extragalactic background light in the universe: The highest-energy rays interact more readily with the background light photons and thus the density of the background light may be estimated by analyzing the incoming gamma ray spectra

That's from Wiki. The significance is, if you have ever shown a light outdoors, and it wasn't cloudy, some of those photons made it out into space, and have added to the background light in our region of the galaxy. For instance, I recall several times as a child, shining a flashlight directly upwards while outdoors. Those photons are now 50 (!) light years from earth, and are spread over an enormous area of space. That region of space is suffused with high energy gamma rays. And once in a very long while, essentially forever, one of those gamma ray photons is going to encounter one of my flashlight photons,

-or one of yours (!)-

and be scattered off into a new direction at a new energy. And maybe someday to be absorbed by an instrument in a far distant laboratory in a far distant galaxy and measured in furtherance of their scientific studies.

It's also possible, one of these altered high energy gamma ray photons might encounter a puddle of primordial ooze somewhere and spark a new life form.



I am not making this up.

One of these altered gamma ray photons might also be detected by an evil M'trbb'vlppthpr'qq3ly military officer and cause them to come here to eat our brains and eyeballs.

If they come for us, I think we should offer you up first for signaling them to come here.  You are a traitor to the human race!  Maybe we need to lock you up in prison so you don't do any more signaling to aliens to come and eat us.

I will always remember you, Kusa.

I really appreciate it. Nobody else here will. [emoji22]

Hey, at least nobody said 'I wish I could forget you KUSA'

I'll remember you for the ceiling cat avatar

Maybe they will come here for cheap tawdry sex ??

Will that make you happy ??

It doesn't bother me.  On the contrary it takes a lot of pressure off of my existence.  No matter how bad I screw up, it will all end up just fine.

It won't end up 'just fine' it'll end up with nothingness. Not fine, not bad, just nothing.
