Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Believe it or not, no aliens were likely involved! Just some very smart humans and a massive amount of labor.

You’re right, I s’pose.

But it gets back to… was it really worth doing? It’s a monument to a single man’s ego.

Well, what else are you supposed to do when you're overlord of the only empire in the known world? Something for the peasants? /s

Yeah, sorry, that was just a nitpick. All the rest I agree with.
