Actually, we're one of the things that matters most in the entire universe.

That was meant for you but whatever, I'm sure OP can make the connection too.

Nah, on the scale of the universe we're humans.

>Actually, we're one of the things that matters most in the entire universe.

there's 100,000+ galaxies in our cluster alone. the thought that life isn't abundant out there is almost arrogant

It's terrifying how fat your mom is

Intelligent life is what matters. I didn't mean humans alone. We have a universal kinship with all of those possible forms of life, by virtue of consciousness.

It must be difficult to be such a low IQ pleb that you believe this is deep or edgy

it's a somewhat new term for it

>>35719650
If you're not high right now, I feel bad for you son. You'd have to be retarded to stop at the most basic "revelation" one could have about the universe and refuse to elaborate on it any further. Literally what kids do when they've smoked their first joint and start to think they're "sooo much different" from everyone else.
>>
>>35719716
i've heard that name for years
i think it's more the fact that most people don't have an indepth knowledge of astronomy and astrophysics
>>
>>35719781
Do you know how to read you absolute retard? That's literally what i said, it's a pretty basic thing to talk about and it's the reason i replied to your post in the first place
You contradict yourself because you thought it was edgy, proving how much of a stupid pile of shit you are

Being small is relative. You'll never be happy if you keep comparing yourself to bigger and better things. Just be the best version of yourself.

Not if you've got another couple decades to live and Elon Musk has a say in this.

I'm gonna be an engineer, and who knows, maybe they need engineers for their next one-way trip to another planet in 15 years. Maybe cry sleep becomes a reality and I wake up in another solar system in a thousand years.

I don't understand why people feel bad about being this small compared to other objects: first off, these are not living things, so It's like comparing apples to AK-47s, and besides, isn't this hugeness part of all the charm? It's truly mind-boggling to think of all these things, and leaves me in a state of awe and admiration at the beauty yet terrifying nature of the universe: to think that all these stars, planets and galaxies are out there leaves us with a constant field to explore to our leisure (at least until we eventually reach the end of the observable universe)

>>35720894
Venus 2050?
Or maybe Europa? I'd love to land on Europa and go scuba-diving in the depths of what may be the only place outside of earth to bear life.

immesuarable heaven

Not only physically small, but small in time.

We're only here for the briefest instant.
>>
>>35720791
Seems like common sense to me that something that is small in size is not necessarily therefore unimportant. It is not a things size that determines its worth, rather it's the properties that the thing has. I'd love to hear your argument against that.
>>
>>35721421
I wanna add to your point by pointing out that the objects with the biggest influence in the universe are actually the smallest. Black holes, literally singularities.

When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; What is man, that thou art mindful of him? And the son of man, that thou visitest him?

Noice.

Proverbs 3:13-15
13Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
14For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
15She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.

This, I think about how stressed I am at time, and then I realize how insignificant my problems are and I feel good after. My good attitude generally ends up fixing the situation as well
