    Do you think humans became extinct, transferred into computers, moved onto other corners of the universe, or became the horses?

    🎶 We are a fluke
    of the universe.
    We have no right to be here.
    And whether we can hear it or not,
    The universe
    is laughing behind our backs. 🎶

    This is the dream of human haters. Me, on the other hand, I would say we would be colonizing the galaxy, right after we tell every communist to shut the fuck up, so that we can continue building our civilization without lazy fatties asking for free stuff.

    Imagine thinking they will even have the ability to recognize or track the history of humans after a million years

    The sad thing is, if we want life as we know it (that includes horses happily munching on grass) to continue existing, humans are it’s only shot.

    It might be edgy and cool to wish humanity would go instinct, but with it, potentially all life will go instinct.

      I mean not really once costal areas flood and the locations best for growing food change we will see massive issues with humanity surviving, the rest of the ecosystem would adapt, migrate and evolve to survive. Hell even chernobyl basically shows us even if we went the full nuclear option wildlife would bounce back better than before with just maybe shortened life expectancies. We are a lot more prone to die from changes than the wildlife on this planet is.

        Short term, yes, no question. But long term (a million years and beyond) we look at different challenges life on earth will face.

        It’s a fact that it won’t simply continue existing indefinitely. And definitely not in the diversity we know now. It’s not likely for rabbits or another species to suddenly rise up to the task of inventing space travel. That would need way more time than what it takes for earth to be hit by an asteroid big enough so that life won’t bounce back. The same goes for other types of mass extinction. Only humans have at least a slight chance to make life endure beyond earth.
