What if we originated on Venus? Then came to Earth as our ancestors messed up that planet. And we came here so we wouldn’t make the same mistake again? What if we are aliens that have the capability to know enough about science to be dangerous to the planets in the universe? Maybe reincarnation is simply finding a new planet to start over on, so that one day we can become decent enough to keep a planet going? /s
I feel like people didn’t catch the /s at the end of your shitpost
It would make for a pretty cool setting for a story though. Set in the near future, first crewed missions to Venus find petroglyphs recording the last days of their ancestors
It’s a surprisingly common scifi trope.
It’s not sarcasm though.
Then why the fuck out a /s at the end when it isn’t sarcasm
It is by definition not sarcasm. So it doesn’t need a /s
Sarcasm usually involves saying the opposite of what you really mean. But it’s hard to infer from text so you add the /s so people don’t downvote because they think you are serious.
I.e. the OC is soo sarcastic /s or Trump is a once in a generation genius!! /s
I don’t think you’ve quite understood ‘/s’. The author was not serious with his post and indicated this fact with ‘/s’. By definition it is sarcasm as that’s what the author defined it as.
the use of irony to mock or convey contempt.
No.
Well if we truly are planet destroying devils, I’m fairy certain God will send his holy light missiles to cleanse the planet as he did with Mars.
I believe there’s a documentary on this very idea called Devilman Crybaby
I’ve watch and read various version of Devilman, I enjoyed the series… But I could never remember the main plot or story, only the memes stuck to my brain.
MAJOR SPOILERS
At the end he fights Satan for an endless eternity, using a diminishing supply of other willing demons as spare body parts as he wears all his limbs out.
The shocks of their battle cause irreparable damage to Earth, and the last of humanity to perish with it.
At the end, he lies limbless, dead or comatose next to Satan on the moon, who asks him almost child-like for closure.
White glowing meteorites presumably sent from God crash into the Earth, wiping all demonic (and presumably all) life from it, similar to the book of revelations
Ah yeah, thanks for jogging my goldfish memory. Pretty wild ending, no wonder my brain interpret it as wild fever dream.
It was one of the biggest plot escalations I’d ever seen, and it just got objectively worse and worse. That last episode left me severely depressed.
We just need spren to control our surgebinding and will be fine.
I think the upper half of the photo with the horizon visible is some kind of artistic recreation. The original photos did not show the horizon.
It’s not. The photos with the horizon visible are photos taken during the descent, whereas the photos with only ground visible were taken as landing was imminent (or after landing).
There is a photo on the page that shows the horizon from a landed position, that’s the one he’s referring to.
It links to, and is displayed, here; with no indication that it’s an artist’s take on what it would look like. It seems to be D. Mitchell’s stitching work from this Venera-13 clear-filter panoramic transmission with added perspective from the color-filter panoramic transmissions.
