Seriously. The fuck is wrong with you?

Hunh. The Sagittarius B2 interstellar cloud:

is composed of various kinds of complex molecules, of particular interest: alcohol. The cloud contains ethanol, vinyl alcohol, and methanol. [...] An ester, ethyl formate, [...] is also responsible for the flavour of raspberries, leading some articles on Sagittarius B2 to postulate the cloud as smelling of ‘raspberry rum’. Large quantities of butyronitrile (propyl cyanide) and other alkyl cyanides have also been detected as being present in the cloud.

Cool stuff.

I don't know about "drinkable" though. It'll turn you blind at best.
- Biologist here! From this list of substances, you'd absolutely die from a shot of this cloud.
  I'd try it anyway lol
- Everything is drinkable once, with a strong enough blender.
- I'm sure there's a way to extract the ethanol. That's drinkable at least.
- It’s drinkable, probably not very enjoyable though

I want to be excited, but techbro futurists like musk have ruined it for me. Once we fix the shit we've got going on down here then maybe there will be more to look forward to out there.

I always say in response to this point that we can probably do 2 things at once, there are 8 billion of us. We could probably stretch to fixing 8 things simultaneously if we really wanted to.
- Idk man, recent events have led me to think that only a small percentage of us actually has the power to do anything significant. Sure, ideally we can all band together and reach for the stars ™️ but that's not gonna happen if most of us are struggling to even survive
It always baffles me when people say that we gotta fix everything on Earth before we go to space when countless inventions and innovations that make our modern lives even remotely possible are a direct result of space travel. Just to name a few; disease and medical research, better understanding of physics, advances in computing, GPS, weather prediction and tracking, solar panels, and the Internet. You don't have to get excited, but to say we shouldn't go to space is a very short sighted argument.
- We have no way of testing to see where our world would be if we'd made different decisions.
  That said, I'd leave all you fucks in an instant to be put into stasis on a ship.
I mean I don’t like that Haber made chlorine gas, but I like fertilizer. I’m happy that I have fertilizer, but Haber can go fuck himself for his role in chemical warfare.
I’m pretty hyped about having food.
I’m pretty hyped about Starship too.
- Imagine having beef with an exothermic reaction
Gotta do both at once. Fix the problems and get all the eggs out of a single basket.

I don't give a shit about raspberry nebulae unless there's someone out there to eat it. Find them aliens! I'll settle for a bacterium, even a fossilized one.

Is the raining glass real? Thought that was a Lower Decks episode.

Glass is mostly quartz, which is made of silicon and oxygen, which are pretty common elements in planets' makeup. It's all about the temperature, pressure and atmosphere at this point
It rains diamonds on some planets

That nice and all, but some people are more interested in tangible things. Not something we'll never see or experience.

- Emergency blankets, grooved pavement, cell phone cameras, cordless vacuums, scratch proof glass, insoles, ear thermometers, GPS, invisible braces, memory foam, tap water filters, smoke detectors... List goes on.
Stuff out there impacts life here - sometimes literally - all the time. It's "cool" that you'd rather ignore it, but you're very wrong that we'll never see or have to deal with it in some fashion. Not to mention the scientific advances from observing the behaviour of something we previously thought couldn't exist.
- That might be true, but that doesn't mean I have to get excited by that.
Man, I'm just trying to hustle enough to pay my rent...
The subtext to that is if you don't find space fascinating, you probably don't have a very good imagination, or much going on between your ears.
- Some people like things you don't like and don't like things you like.
  If you don't like motorcycles, sailboats, big trucks, dogs, guns, and computers, you are objectively wrong and have the wrong interests because you're not exactly the same as I am.
