Regretfully no. There's no evidence they reached much of North America except for a brief stay in Newfoundland, Canada. Also, those explorers hailed from Norway.

Put that way one would have to choose the jelly donut over broccoli. This may be a simple minded one dimensional take on the world.

I have to disagree. The antinatalists did not present arguments for their case especially the ravings about avoiding future suffering for persons that don't exist which is not coherent enough to have any moral impact.

It is off topic though exactly which topic it is off of is unclear. Which patriarchy are you referring to?

A nitpicky point, as far as I know Holmes vs Doyle is premiering on PBS stations in the US, not across all of North America. Many of us in Canada will joyfully watch on a US PBS station. Can't speak for Mexico, the other part of North America. Take care.

I suspect that your deathbed worries will be much more immediate and tightly focused on the next breath but if not be careful not to get into a spiral (a death spiral) worrying about what you think are the right things.

Approximately 50% of the US votes were for Trump. To imply they are all law breakers or tax fiddlers is just childish nonsense.

Exactly. So making statements like 'there has to be life elsewhere' or 'we are alone' are wild guesses.

What other forms of life could we reasonably expect to exist?
What are the conditions that allowed those other forms to flourish?
What is the probability that these conditions exist elsewhere in the universe?
Without knowing this we can only make fantasy guesses about our solitude.

I would like to see social media as a place where you can choose to both debate and argue politics and such AND share things that make you happy AND things that provoke you. Right now Bluesky seems scared of the first, overwhelmed with the second and unsure about the third.
