Oh dear lawd baby jesus

A strong solar flare (M9.8) was just detected around AR 3500 near center disk. A wave of plasma appears to be leaving the flare site, a good sign for a potential Earth directed eruption.

Soon this MASSIVE CORONAL HOLE will be looking directly at earth and we will face the possibility of being wacked by the biggest Coronal Mass Ejection in the history of man and sent back to the Stone Age. DOOM I SAY, DOOM! [begin Jaws theme music]

The image from 3 Nov. on the left and 1 Dec on the right. It has filled in a little in the south but extended and widened to the north. How long will it last? It is already 6 months old.

As of 1537 UTC 2 December it’s looking at us.

Several news outlets have reported that the Earth may be hit by a "lost" asteroid this year. According to the reports, if asteroid 2007 FT3 were to hit Earth it would do so with the equivalent energy of 2.6 billion tons of TNT, NASA has lost track of it, and it has a chance of hitting the planet on October 5, 2024. So, given that that all sounds (to use a technical term) "not great", what is really going on?

Let's pray it lands on Moscow, Beijing, Teheran or Washington DC and kills a few dinosaurs...

Unfortunately, it will probably miss the Earth.

Like a PC, the planet is overdue for a reboot.

It was measured as an X8.7 flare, significantly stronger than the ones emitted last week. The light released by the event was so energetic, released in the extreme ultraviolet, that it ionized the top of the atmosphere. This in turn caused a radio blackout over the Americas, which would affect planes and ships that rely on signals below 30 MHz.

We'll all be covered in sores, losing teeth and clumps of hair, and projectile vomiting over and over again long before any of this stuff affects us.

But don't worry, it won't last terribly long.

... nonsense! I've been losing teeth, clumps of hair, covered in sores and 'projecting' from either end for decades ! My only ambition is to outlive Rockstar, Reece and Jeff Groves??! With MIT projecting civilization's end by 2040; I'll endure another 16 miserable years??!

Are we dead yet?

...now that some theorists have theorized that the universe might be 'just a simulationas some observed cosmic events do not follow the immutable rules of entropic physics, the real question is : are we really alive to begin with??!

So, there you have it. The simplest explanation for the existence of consciousness is that it is an experience being created, by our bodies, but not for us. We are qualia-generating machines. Like characters in Grand Theft Auto, we exist to create integrated audiovisual outputs. Also, as with characters in Grand Theft Auto, our product mostly likely is for the benefit of someone experiencing our lives through us.
What are the implications of this monumental find? Well, first of all we can’t question Elon Musk again. Ever. Secondly, we must not forget what the simulation hypothesis really is. It is the ultimate conspiracy theory. The mother of all conspiracy theories, the one that says that everything, with the exception of nothing, is fake and a conspiracy designed to fool our senses. All our worst fears about powerful forces at play controlling our lives unbeknownst to us, have now come true. And yet this absolute powerlessness, this perfect deceit offers us no way out in its reveal. All we can do is come to terms with the reality of the simulation and make of it what we can.
Here, on earth. In this "life".
