And this isn't calling you out Mu-u-ud Brother, but Mo-o-o will say that those that think that there is no such thing as aliens or other intelligent life out there is quite naive.Oh, I didn’t mean to imply that I don’t believe alien life exists—I just don’t think it’s visiting Earth. I do believe there are people out there who really have seen strange things, but saying alien visitors and their spaceships are the reason for such phenomena seems like a stretch. That explanation falls more into the category of mythology/folklore than logic/facts, though I do think it’s a lot of fun to imagine (you know me)…
I'm curious why nobody mentions trying to find life in general...doesn't have to be "big brain" like the humans that we are right now that have evolved from monkeys.On the topic of less advanced extraterrestrial life, I will say that there was quite a stir in the 90s over a meteorite from Mars, ALH 84001, that supposedly showed fossil evidence of microscopic life. This was later concluded to be inaccurate, but the claim caused a lot of excitement in the scientific community at the time.
On an LBT video, I saw a comment about Charles Kimbrough’s background in musical theater, and I was curious about what he did there, being someone who only knew him from cartoons.

He starred as the male rainbowface in The Stone of Cold Fire, wow!
Sad to hear he died in January of last year, may he rest in peace!
Quite classy song, by the way.

I set pretty high standards and expectations for myself, usually trying to set the bar high for my goals. I'm luckily not as obsessed with it as I used to, up to the point where I'd rather just retreat in my shell and start collapsing when the going gets very rough and I don't meet the expectation that I set. These days, striving for high achievement (and perfect, if possible, school GPA) is what I still do, but I definitely will not overdo myself and take care of my mental health. It should be a priority taken seriously for everyone. Number one priority, even!
I’ve always been exactly the same way and have only recently started realizing how perfectionism has harmed me. It’s good that you’re finding a better balance for yourself at a younger age!
Yeah... Mo-o-o had experienced the lowest point of that strain for perfectionism, and that was in the beginning of 10th grade where my academic grades had pretty much crashed for that year. Just wasn't trying, and was absent a lot. Mo-o-o was definitely biting a lot mo-o-ore than he could chew, but yet was too stubborn at first to lay back and take things easier. Big mistake. But luckily, it was also the same year that Mo-o-o had joined the Gang of Five and had already made quite amazing, loving Mu-u-ud Bro-o-others that helped support me during those times. <3 <3
I've vowed since then to try and prioritize my mental health first, even when Mo-o-o wants to strive for the highest far reaches of the stars. Well, to be fair, Mo-o-o still tends to do-o-o that, but at least the fishy is mo-o-ore self aware of his limits and when to take it easy.
I hope yo-o-ou can also find it in yourself to sometimes take a step back and take it easy mo-o-ore as well, Mu-u-u-ud Bro-o-other!!!
It's such a big relief when you let go such feelings of perfectionism, realizing that it is okay to make mistakes, and it is in those mistakes that you can learn and grow as an individual from them. Plus, it's nice to share those mistakes to hopefully let others learn from them and not have to learn the hard way themselves!
You're right. No further comments.
I'm just gonna shut up. No more insanely long speeches.
You know what, I can't say anything for this topic. So I'll just leave now.
You all just wait and see! Someday I WILL write a simple, one sentence response to someone when that's really all that's necessary.And the last example was actually him making a joke about himself, so he was well aware of his own reputation.
@ImpracticalDino With less than half the letters filled out, you got it! My favorite of the popular nicknames for comet 12P/Pons-Brooks...which I recently tried and failed to find through binoculars at its peak viewing time.
Your turn!
Yip-p-p-pee! Nice nickname for comets, Rainbow.
Pretty cool to know that "Mother of Dragons" relates to astronomy, now Mo-o-o knows.
Sucks to hear that you couldn't find them during peak viewing time. I hope the time to see those comets again come around soon for you.
Why is almost no one posting here
OphthalmosaurusWhat possibly made you choose that word?
Mo-o-o-o isn't really reading at the moment. However, the fishy does want to ask if anyone else can relate to the situation that I have regarding books. So like, I have plenty of books in my bookshelves as of now, many that I have bought recently or in the past because those books have piqued my interest in some form or capacity. And yet, lots of them have just ended up collecting dust, staying unread, some for a few years at this point! It's not that I do not want to read them...but maybe, mayhaps...I'm just too distracted/focusing on one thing, or just prefer to do other things, whether focusing on my future career aspects, play video games, watch YouTube/listen to music, other obligations, etc! Like, when will I ever be in the correct mo-o-o-od to pick up a book for once?
