HUMANS

[Reginald Ret]

Thanks for bumping this.

I kind of want to create a Tumblr account for this, using the "seeing humans as dangerous beasts" angle.  and blatantly stealing your ideas.

Do eeeet! You can use anything of mine in any way you see fit.

There's worse people that we can have our ideas blatantly stolen from.

Humans will shift whole pounds of pressure across their bodies, holding the pressure in places that cause pain that lasts days, months, years, decades so they can avoid emotional reaction.

Ahh, I can do that better. I will have to think it over, but I missed this hread before. Is good thread.

Humans are known to expose themselves to solar radiation on purpose, because they believe the resulting damage to their epidermal layer makes them more attractive to prospective mates. Oddly, they are surprised when this leads to skin cancer.

Humans are listening for your radio signals.
Humans are working on FTL.
Humans are looking for the spectral fingerprint of life on your atmosphere.
Humans feel alone.
Humans are destroying themselves because it's profitable.
Humans are EAGER to TALK to YOU. And find a way to VISIT you....

...with the best of intentions of course.

Humans are.... "altruistic"

Humans are working on FTL.

I think that was covered under OH GOD OH GOD THE HUMANS HAVE FIGURED OUT DOOR HANDLES.

It bears repeating.

You know all of those sci-fi stories we wrote about alien invaders who are invading for no particular reason other than to kill us dead?

Humanity projecting onto a non-existent species. Just switch the protagonist around and that's humans for ya.

They know.  THEY KNOW.

:SHHHH: the humans are listening, right fucking now. Kill the technology.

That's gotta be a hell of a thing though.

Alien civilization: We just figured out the electromagnetic spectrum and how to disperse information across it.... Oh.... Hmmm.... seems we're not alone. Let's decode the message. Ok, we've figured out the dominant language on this highly fractured planet. Oh. Uh. Surface message of peace but intense xenophobia. Like, kill our asses dead xenophobia. Judging from their fiction. Oh... hehe... they're more technologically advanced than us, based on light year distance. Ah. There's a strange thing in orbit....
