edit: shortened thoughts

If I get 50 up/downvotes then 500 people of all different walks of life read this, since only the distribution’s tails vote. If that’s 5-10% at each tail, then the 80-90% who thought the post or comment was mild have seen it and have not spoken.

If I leave it in the showerthoughts queue for ten days, then future people will see it too. Maybe they’re from a year away!

Idk. Just sonder

      Actually, you’re the main character. I’m out of render distance and am only visible by coordinate pointer and randomized text messages :>

        Just be happy you’re in my star system. Aliens haven’t gotten a simulation tick in almost a decade.
