The various solar systems are so far apart and the universe is expanding to keep civilizations separated lest one contaminate another with sin.
@memeticsisyphus They say "lane wasted," as if two half-mile-long lines of cars is better than one mile-long line of cars, rather than exactly the same.
It turns out that no actors can in fact act. Every genuine-looking reaction must be actually genuine and achieved in a single take. They are simply not capable of faking it.
@FayeH321@NoahPollak@MaxNordau The very headline does that already: "War and displacement..."
