It's just a matter of priorities. In order to build a spaceship and get it out of the atmosphere, you have to do a colossal amount of ecological damage, which is the last thing we can afford right now. Space ships are made with lots of lithium and cobalt and fun stuff like that.

I'm not saying forever, I'm saying that we're in the ER for internal bleeding and you're talking about doing an operation to fix our scoliosis.

Colonizing other planets is way, way, way beyond our current abilities. It would be easier to colonize the ocean first, because at least that has water and a biosphere, or even Antarctica, because at least that has breathable air. Counting on flight to another planet is a bad idea: it's infinitely harder than fixing things at home.

John Brown. The man stood up for what was right, even at the cost of his own life.

Say you need to go west. There's two buses on offer: one goes east, and the other goes further east. Do you get on the bus that goes less east, or do you just start walking west?

Chickens are smart enough to communicate "ouch" and "I am afraid of dying", yet here we are.

At 400F it would no longer be a chicken but a pile of glowing cinders. A chicken is cooked at 165F.

Oh wow just switch employers, is that all

Beyond that, you missed my point. Even if I were being paid more, I still wouldn't have any incentive to make myself dispensable. Unless I'm vested in the company profits, then the profits don't matter to me.

Lmao fuck integrity I'm trying to make rent

It's not like the company has any integrity in their dealings, like when they lay off entire departments with no notice. One of my current coworkers worked for Dell for 17 years before being laid off. According to you, if she were confident in her abilities, she shouldn't have worried.

Companies don't care about integrity. They don't care about people. All companies would replace you with someone cheaper if they could. Why should we care about them?
