Call that one a win.

Take risk of signing up for a 3000 year hyper-sleep trip.

Reap the rewards of being a pioneer without having to do any of the hard work.

join intergalactic ship pilgrimage hoping to be a pioneer to a new world

Land to late stage capitalism and the same oppression you were just trying to escape.

Id shoot myself immediately.

The first crew would face the most difficult challenges. Imagine the relief after expecting to establish the fundamentals of civilization, and instead are just assigned your living quarters.

I would definitely prefer to be a leader of new world than just be sent to my room.

I guess. I’m more of a space socialist, myself. Silly me always assumed that equality and collaboration would be a precursor to colonization of other worlds. Musk is trying so hard to prove me wrong. Lol

What if you set out with the idea of starting socialist utopia on a new planet and get there to find booming corporate dystopia?

Put me back to sleep and wake me for the revolution.

Let's burn this bitch down and start over with the common man in mind, and the needs of everyone met.

Or let's go find a new planet. With blackjack, and hookers.

Curious that the star is called Barnard because that’s the name of the doctor that first performed a successful heart transplant.

Merry and Pippin: "we should leave only after the 13th breakfast because by then the Eagles will already be on route and we can just use them."

Minmaxing LOTR? Nice

Jerks didn't come pick me up on way there? Wtf dudes.

Not only that, but 3000 years into the future, language has changed so much that the plural of SHEEP is now SHOOP

That's right, androids do dream of electric SHOOP

Shit's wild yo

1000 years alone is a wildly long time for language. Granted, written language and education are more accessible than ever, so I imagine language evolution will be significantly slower than it once was, but still I found this short of English over the past 1000 years to be really interesting

Have you seen how fast slang is evolving currently? I can't even imagine translating something like "chat, am I cooked?" to my grandma.

Also on a side note; have you noticed the rise in lisps?

I can't even imagine translating something like "chat, am I cooked?" to my grandma.

"Hey folks, am I in trouble?"

Riddle me this, Lads: do I find myself in a pickle?
