If aliens do come it may be only cause they want us on thier side of some bigger war.
Maybe some alien civilization does know about us, but it slightly afraid since we spec'ed in the war tree instead of space travel.
They kept letting us advance our war machines until one day they needed us. To help stop a greater evil; since they went space exploration instead of guns

The amount of people your age is only going down with time.
Also: The people don't change. The pool of people your age that you could meet doesn't change, it only gets smaller.

People born after 2000 have never seen the cosmic microwave background on their TV set.
The static on old CRT TVs with rabbit ears was the cosmic microwave background. No one in the last 25 years has ever seen it.

I like how my cat always starts following and walking-meeting (Law & Order style) around with me whenever its feeding time
You'd think it was back in elementary school and she is teacher escorting me around with my hall pass.
She be like:

Alarm clocks would be more effective if the sound was someone puking or gagging.
I always hit snooze on my alarm clock, but I jump right out of bed if I hear someone puking or gagging (e.g., kids or my dog).

Someone should make a game comparing our world to a cyberpunk dystopia
Note: this is a take from an art, not politics, perspective. Respect the rules of the community!
Most of the dystopian genres in art, and especially visual art, try their best to represent the dystopian world as something very black, grey, uniform, with iron fences, barbed wires, and street shootings.
And that's while we know that dystopian world comes at us while trying to remain unnoticed, unimportant, to fly under the radar.
And it would be amazing to expose through art, storytelling, etc. To help players immerse in a world that's not so different from our own, while slowly showing to them what's actually happening, deconstructing the world to make players see what it's actually made of and what hides behind the facade of a normal everyday life.
I think this kind of representation of everyday dystopia could be helpful to prevent it from expanding in our very real world. People should learn to see signs of it without the common aesthetics.

It's crazy that a 60 ton metal airplane can just fly
I flew for the first time on a plane last week and I've seen planes take off at the airport. It looks crazy. But being on one is totally different like holy shit. The thing just FLIES. It just.... Soars... Through the sky! Like whoa man. Wtf... It's crazy. With how much these things weigh, it's insane to me the thing can just go up and bam, there we are, we're flying now. Like wow... Dude crazy.
