They look different but they all had cultures, life, love, philosophy, etc. So they are, and have the core of what makes humanity, human. I think I really started feeling bittersweet around 22:13 where we learned about the bird-people and their culture (at risk of repeating myself: it was *just* so *Human* ).

But I still refuse to believe it, my hopes for humanity are naively high, I will die countless years before we could rule the galaxy (if it is to occur) so I feel better living my years dreaming of our far descendants as gods rather than slaves 😛

      translation: Dark matter is a hypothetical form of matter thought to account for approximately 85% of the matter in the universe and about 27% of its total mass-energy density or about 2.241×10−27 kg/m3. Its presence is implied in a variety of astrophysical observations, including gravitational effects that cannot be explained by accepted theories of gravity unless more matter is present than can be seen. For this reason, most experts think that dark matter is abundant in the universe and that it has had a strong influence on its structure and evolution. Dark matter is called dark because it does not appear to interact with the electromagnetic field, which means it does not absorb, reflect or emit electromagnetic radiation, and is therefore difficult to detect.

      yeah, thankfully it's got a complete story. Humanity going into space, the Qu, the different races rebuilding, the Gravitals wars, and finally the last fight with the Qu. I would even have a definitive ending, because I think the author wanted to push forward the ascension ending, since it's the most optimistic. Also it's a fantastic closure of the contrast to the Qu who considered themselves the Gods and Masters of the material world, and after Humanity has gone fully circle, rather than becoming the next Qu, and terrorizing the material world they ascend outside the material world into another dimension leaving the subsequent aliens to their own destiny.

      I’m not sure I would say the ending is sad. Sure, it’s melancholy, but all lives must end at some point, and the story of humanity in all tomorrows is the story of life as well. Through all their suffering in twisted humans maintained their drive to expand, connect, and understand. The life of every human told as one. And the fact that another alien race saw the value in that long after humanity was gone from relevance is the lesson. We may amount to dust in an unforeseen amount of time, but our story is still etched into the worlds we lived in.

      Actually should humanity ever achieve space flight capable of reaching and terraforming other worlds and star systems then it’s incredibly likely that you wouldn’t see an extinction event for man until the heat death of the universe. For every planetwide massacre, every collapsing star, and so on youd have plenty of humans elsewhere that would be thriving. Think the Imperium of Man from Warhammer. It’s a bit like trying to exterminate every fly with a fly swatted or a flame thrower. Sure you’ll kill many. But you’ll never, ever kill them all.

    In some indigenous cultures, such as certain Native American tribes, there are legends and beliefs about Star People or Star Beings who are considered to be celestial or extraterrestrial entities. These stories often depict Star People as wise and benevolent beings who have provided guidance, knowledge, or assistance to humans throughout history.
    In the realm of New Age spirituality and UFO-related beliefs, Star People are often associated with extraterrestrial beings or entities from other star systems who are believed to have visited or are in contact with Earth. Some individuals claim to have had experiences of contact or communication with these Star People, often describing them as advanced beings with spiritual or evolutionary wisdom.

      Is there supposed to be a point to this wall of text? Besides trying to appropriate and simplify entire belief systems?

      I asked CHATGPT and this is what it said "Yes, I wrote that response. It provides a general overview of the beliefs and legends surrounding Star People or Star Beings in certain indigenous cultures, as well as their associations with New Age spirituality and UFO-related beliefs. The information presented is based on common knowledge and cultural understanding up until September 2021."
      so L for using GPT

      @@flamingkillermc2806 Wow it can recognize its own responses from completely different instances? Wonder if it was lying and confirming bias, somehow identified it's own unique speech patterns the way we did, or if it's got predetermined responses that it's able to recognize even tho it says nothing predetermined 🤔

      As a large-scale language model, I do not have the capability of forming memories nor do I have any recollection of information that is produced in other instances, unless otherwise input by the user.
