Funny how the world always does despite humanity grasping at utopias and fictional straws.

The concept of "special" in the real reality of what we do as a species know and observe and can measure is insulting. To conflate the good and the bad of reality to Superman vs Kriptonite is the unfortunate teat humanity clings to out of ignorance. Placebos sound good until arrogance gets the outsider killed.

Know what confuses me the most? The fact they seem to want to live forever. I mean, think about that for a moment. Live *forever*? I'm going to be bored of life by the time I reach forty, forever? Fuck that. Its not even as if it'd be living forever here either, it'd be an eternity sucking the omnipotent cock of some superbeing in a place he controls entirely and trying not to piss him off.
Why would anyone want that to be true? It baffles me.
