Well, Laz, I finally admit you are. If all the dumb things don’t get you, God is going to collide us into another galaxy.

[airborne]

And the amazing part is that the vast, vast, vast majority of celestial bodies in both galaxies will never collide with any other.

God is infinitely awesome!

Don't worry! The Democrats will tax the rich and
create a inclusive, diversified new federal government
agency with many new exciting programs and mandates
that will solve this problem in about 20 to 50 years.

And all genders will be included too.
The snail darter will also be saved.
And all equipment and materials used will recyclable
and environmentally friendly. And no minorities will
left behind. Only white men will made to suffer.

The End Is Near!

(in a galactically relative manner)

[DannyTN]

There goes the neighborhood.

Won’t happen soon enough to save us from Biden.

[jmacusa]

We’re heading towards the Andromeda Galaxy at a speed of about 400,000 mph but it’s going to be a long, long time before it happens.

None of us will be here when it does.

[jmacusa]

No. I wouldn’t do that if I were you.

[Does so]

Was that billions...or millions?

[seowulf]

What do you get when two large areas of mostly empty space collide?

One area of slighty less empty space.

[BitWielder1]

Worse, it will be a one galaxy government.
Absolutely nowhere to hide, not even in your mind.

We're screwed, but the nighttime view will be spectacular.

[BiteYourSelf]

It’s because the milky way sucks.😁

[GreenHornet]

It’s Trump’s fault. And the Russian invasion of Ukraine. And the Covid pandemic.

....and climate change and greedy corporations and guns and racism...

[AZJeep]

Something like 2.5 to 4.5 Billions of years away!
Almost as scary as the global warming!
The galaxies are about 2.5 millions of light years apart right now.
But, apparently, our outer realms are about touching right now. Nothing, but few atoms orbiting each galaxy million light years away.
So AOC should start making some fuzz about it! We have only 10 years to save the Earth!

[FlingWingFlyer]

A collision like that sure will melt your ice caps.

In six billion years our sun will become a white dwarf after going through a red giant phase, turning earth into a burning cinder.

Note: this simulation matches observations of colliding galaxies but dark matter (a fudge factor) is needed to make the simulation work. In 1966 Arp published his catalog of peculiar galaxies and made the assertion that these galaxies were interacting. The “scientific community” rejected his claim but Arp was right all along.

Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts. Richard Feynman

Where’s Greta when we need her?

[outofsalt]

Has Al Gore or the Obama’s bought a mansion near the edge of the galaxy?

[Deplorable American1776]

Quick Democrats, spend money to fix this disaster. Yes, it is Trump’s fault and is caused by CLIMATE Change, so we need money to help our milky way...
