i mean, things could be worse

there was a paper some time ago that suggested that basically every icy satellite-or-large-rock from jupiter’s orbit outwards to pluto all the way to the rest of the oort cloud has a chance of having a subsurface ocean that is (or was) kept warm enough to stay liquid just via their core being hot

but the thing is that all those rocks have been slowly cooling off since their formation, so more of them had warmer oceans in the past. 

also, given that in order to form, life needs a sufficiently large amount of energy-per-square-foot to sustain itself (but not too much energy) then in fact, the solar system had way more places where life could have emerged than you’d have expected looking just at the surfaces of our rocks.

thus, well, most of the life in the solar system evolved to survive in the dark of a subsurface ocean somewhere where our entire ecosystem was doomed to freeze and die millions of years ago without ever getting to even see the rest of the universe. probably.

you get to see the universe before the sun runs out, and it’s been a more reliable source of power for you than what would have been available if you’d evolved on a place like most of the rest of the life out there has, yknow? i mean i know you believe you’ve had it hard; you’ve evolved for these conditions and therefore your notion of hardness is adapted to your environment so of course. that’s the same for everybody. all forms of life i mean.

but things could be worse

something about the way you’re saying “you…”

to survive in the dark of a subsurface ocean somewhere where our entire ecosystem was doomed to freeze and die millions of years ago

…..!!!

their. 

i meant their. 

i dont know what you’re implying i mean there’s nothing suspicious here. you’re being paranoid.

how would i even have gotten an internet connection from that sort of deep sea environment? if i were on earth. and i needed that sort of environment. because that’s where we’d evolved. 

which we didn’t! i meant that rhetorically.

i mean who would believe that, haha

deep sea aliens emigrating from frozen dead transjovian worlds and resenting those who’d emerged in more favorable conditions. that sounds like something you’d read in a story. a fictional story. with nothing to do with reality.

haha
