    Pretty sure that’s just an old linoleum tile or faux granite counter with reflections of the overhead light rather than a rug.

      Imagine, you go to quit your job cuz you think our galaxy looks like a rug but your boss explains to you that that is a whole different galaxy and ours doesn’t look like that. You start crying and your boss says to you, “There there, don’t cry over spilled milk.”

    The Milky Way galaxy is estimated to have 400 billion stars.

    Elon Musk would have enough money to give at least 2$ to each star system in the galaxy.

    Fuck Elon Musk.

      $2 to each star in the galaxy, and still have enough left over to be ludicrously rich, and have more than anyone could reasonably spend in multiple lifetimes.

      We’re looking at vast distances, and there’s no depth perception here. Like seeing constellations, those stars that look clustered up are actually much farther apart than you realize, but you can’t tell the distance just by looking at it

      They are very sparse on a solar scale, but not on a galactic scale

        Also this view might include red dwarfs which make up like 75% of all stars and are not visible to the naked eye at night (and wouldn’t be even if you were in space on the dark side of the moon. they’re too dim compared to the sun). When you add them in galaxies are much more dense with stars.

      Homeless people are tying the universe together?

      We should really be paying them for that.

      And housing them, of course.

      I implore you to read about why people actually end up on the street and to remember it is always better to be silent and thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt

        really? what do you think happen to people that quit their jobs without preparation on impulse when their savings run out?

        Follow up : do you thin telling people to be careful when making huge decisions like that is a bad thing to do?

          Telling people to be careful =/= making a big generalization about how people end up homeless in a way that puts the blame on them

          My point stands, it would be wise to read about why people actually end up on the street before making that judgement for them

          And for the record whenever I impulsively quit a job with no backup i just would go find another job and do gig work in between…
