My wife and I talked this exact meme this morning. If there really is aliens, life for us would just go on, so much more to worry about
I tell my partner all the time that if something can survive space for that long, they don't need us. Knowledge is the language of the universe, they'd be here to observe.
My friend and I talked about this last night. Calvin and Hobbes had it better. The surest sign of intelligent life in the universe is they haven't contacted us yet.
Why would any self respecting alien want to engage this dumpster fire?
