I've seen the pendulum really swing against the possibility of alien life, and I just don't understand it. Like I agree intelligent aliens have not visited Earth, but it's a really big universe out there, and to suggest that there is no alien life among the trillions of stars is absurd

% of U.S. adult citizens who believe the following definitely or probably exist:
Aliens 56%
Bigfoot 28%
The Yeti 23%
The Loch Ness Monster 22%
Chupacabra 16%

I just saw The Sound of Music in a theater where it was in sing-along format, and we hissed at the Baroness and booed the Nazis and set off pop rockets when they kissed and I cannot recommend the experience enough. It was like Rocky Horror for old people and kids and it ruled.

One time I was getting food delivered and the delivery guy said "hey, thanks for the additional instructions on how to find your place! So clear!" and that is low-key one of my most cherished compliments

Comrade Sanders, please don't die, we need you
Sen Bernie Sanders: “We have a political system that is increasingly controlled by the billionaire class. In the recent elections, just 150 billionaire families spent nearly $2 billion to get their candidates elected. Our job in the coming months and years is clear. We must defeat the oligarchs”
