Hyprlinking has not been doing that well, but clicking on the link seems to work okay.

That is because you already have the image in your cache.

able to see it now?

[Vater Araignee]

~~~edit to add~~~

what you might need to do is to put the image in a DGN gallery then hot link it.

What do you think of the image?

They can see my posting, I'm hosting it on my site.

I think the image crushes self importance.

We mean no more to the grand scheme of the universe than some insignificant microbe means to us.

That is what I was feeling about it too (thanks btw)

Cosmicism

We are just parasites.

[phee]

We are just parasites.

I don't believe so.... parasites have an effect on things... we have none

Nobody has ever been able to make that argument adequately.

They always run right out of the realm of the empirical and into the theoretical.

Scientific theory taken as fact can be just as much bull shit as religious fundamentalism.

If that's the case, then I don't have to worry about climate change, recycling, pollution, overpopulation, deforestation, genocide ...

Only your on other things like you... not on the universe in general.

You don't have to worry about climate change #1 the earth is self correcting baring extra atmospheric interference #2 increased sunspot activity increased temperature. Do you believe that mans pollution is causing every planet in the solar system to heat up like they are currently doing?

You don't have to worry about recycling any further than the law provides because, the earth is self correcting baring extra atmospheric interference. You could also take the road that recycling slows down cost increase.

Overpopulation isn't parasitic it is cannibalistic, the earth is self correcting. So if we don't stabilize the population at a sustainable level we have a mass die off.

Deforestation at some point will cause extinction possibly as absolutely nobody has been able to prove that the trees are needed. It has been shown that there is plenty of carbon dioxide absorbing oxygen releasing organisms on the earth to provide for our oxygen needs. It has also been proven that young trees absorb CO2 faster per pound than old trees so if deforestation is an issue just plant young trees and chop down the old. Better yet use industrial hemp. If I am wrong, it doesn't matter, the earth is self correcting.

Genocide isn't parasitic either it is evil but not parasitic.

Ultimately we could nuke the entire planet and it wont matter as far as the universe is concerned and life on this planet will continue.

I love that gif. It always gives me chills and also makes me wish that lengthy space travel was possible I can't even imagine how huge those other stars and planets would be in person.

[DJ Nocker]

Its not the size that counts, its how you use it!

lmao
