Humans are space orcs

deathssidebitch:

I’ve seen those humans and aliens posts and I wanted to add my thoughts.

Humans are dreamers filled with spite. That’s it. Humans always love coming up with little things like “wouldn’t be cool if’s” and “it’d be awesome if we could’s”

But they’re usually passing thoughts that nobody builds on.

It’s when someone says “you can’t do that” or “that’s stupid” or the best one “that’s impossible.”

Because that’s when humans do it.
I bet the Wright brothers were just chilling with their friends when one of them mentioned how cool it would be to fly like birds, and their friends laughed at them and said they were stupid.

And they were like “Fucking watch me.”
That’s where progress is made. Anytime a passing thought is mocked is where the genius erupts.

I can imagine Ben Franklin standing outside with a kite shouting “they said I wouldn’t do it.”

So if aliens ever discovered earth, telling humans about an astroid belt that can’t be navigated, the humans would already be plotting their course.
And any uninhabitable planet should expect visitors when humans are told they can’t go there.

The surest way of getting a human to do anything is to tell them they can’t.
