It's been a big year, alright? - Lemmy.world

“We’re here to extract all your planet’s natural resources”

“You too?”

You are 4000 years to late, we already wage war against each other for that stuff for a loooooooong time…
It kind of kills the whole "alien invasion for resources" trope that every movie and book uses. Not only is there much more out there before they even get to us, it's pure and not full of plastic.
Its also not radioactive… (yes our steel has changed since the 30s)

Asteroid belt is the place to go.

We do have some fun things here though like the methane clathrates.

Wait till he discover how we “socialize” with less capable species like cows, pigs, chickens and fishes
If it’s got a hole…
