Dumb nerds. There’s a fucking crosshair pointed at us and they’re more interested in us in a void. /s

It's also right next to a giant chaos star apparently.

We haven't even gotten to the dark age of technology yet. This knowledge must be lost pretty soon. Or maybe discovering the Eye of Terror is referring to first contact of some sort.

Sounds like this discovery places us IN the Eye of Terror.

Good thing everyone and everything I know is here on earth.

We're being shunned by the galaxy.

The slow smokeless burning of decay.

That's why no one ever comes over to visit

According to the beliefs of the religion I invented and I don't usually talk about because no one asks and starting a cult is too much trouble to bother, there's only one intelligent species per galaxy, you're only allowed to meet the neighbours once you manage colonise it all.

Would you please go into extreme detail about your religion? pretty please?

The Vogons will be along shortly to clear out the rest for a hyperspace expressway.

Not if Kronos wins office

You know how the military clears the area of a target for range practise?

Maybe that’s was the objective. Aliens find a little planet in the middle of a space desert, untouched by any race. It’s a nice experiment, they came here, dropped some DNA (either like that awful movie or by masturbating hard) and left. Now they’re just watching and laughing and laughing.

So Trump is not just draining my will to live?

Some other said that the universe is in a giant black hole, this also explain the acelerated expansion into it. We'll seeAnyway the Earth don't exist anymore since a long time, until the spaguetification, not even when Andromeda crashed with th Milkyway, maybe still when we know that we are NPCs in an Galactic WoW computergame.

A plural Z void?

Then again, it may not be. Rain overnight as well, unless there is not. The news is all supposition lately. Hail may kill you today, but it may not.

uncertainty is the human condition

E Pluribus Anus?

Eh. It's not like we'd be getting anywhere at sub-light speeds regardless and a working Alcubierre drive isn't exactly right around the corner.
On the other hand, it might make it harder for anybody with working FTL to get to us, which is probably a good thing. If they saw how we're conducting ourselves at the moment, orbital bombardment would be the best we could hope for.
Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
Somewhat ironically... actually using an Alcubierre drive has been theorized to...
...well, basically, when you 'come out of warp speed', turns out you've been accumulating, and energizing, a whole bunch of exotic particles and radiation along the threshold of your 'warp bubble'...
... so when you uh, decelerate/stop fucking spacetime so hard... you spew out an immense amount of exotic particles and radiation.

So you wouldn't even have to nuke it from orbit.
You just have to come out of warp right next to your target planet, and that'd probably boil off a good portion of its atmosphere, and give everything biological on the side facing you lethal radiation poisoning.
Dammit - I just commented that on another post. This one is better.
we're under galactic quarantine until we get over this whole fascism thing we've been doing the last 20k years
If we're really lucky, they could also be Ferengi.
We are the ferengi
"orbital bombardment"
They'd punch us in the eye?
