I once had a similar thought: if we were to build stations/cities on the moon, you’d likely be able to see the light from them when they’re in shadow.

This would be kind of cool, but imagine you don’t know about people building cities on the moon and all you see are these glowing lines spreading across the moon. You’d probably think the moon was breaking apart or something. I’d imagine some “uncontacted tribes” would feel like it’s a sign of the end of the world.

On an unrelated note, this will be my last comment from lemm.ee

This is why you can taste/smell saline when it’s injected. Trace amounts of dissolved things (which taste like plastic and metal) in the saline are able to pass through the alveoli in the lungs and evaporate into your breath.

Oddly, I think it’s a similar thing with my ADHD meds because about an hour or two after taking them my breath smells/tastes weird.

While fitting, there are many more things in life besides the internet could be called “capitalism fucked up everything.” Better to call it “capitalism fucked over the net” otherwise people could call Healthcare, climate change, fascism, most wars, pollution, etc. Web3.0 which might be confusing lol
