Will they collide or just go into orbit around a common center of mass? I don't know. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

When the time comes, don't try to watch it on CNN. (They're probably already blaming Trump for it!)

IT’S A CRISIS and we have to fight it by giving the government control of everything so that we can alter the galactic course and avoid a collision.

“The monster collision between our Milky Way and fellow spiral galaxy Andromeda will occur about 4.5 billion years from now...”

We know that women and minorities will be most affected. Is it too soon to start demanding reparations?

Imagine how spectacular the night sky will be with all those stars. Now then there’s the increased radiation but some sun screen should help.

Women and minorities will suffer the most.

AOC has already drafted a resolution demanding that the Milky Way stop its aggressive behavior. All of the 2020 Democrat presidential candidates have signed on, blaming Trump for collusion with Andromedan forces.

Earth will have been swallowed by the sun by then, probably.
Yup, were all gonna die!

With the caveat, most of what we “know” is wrong. So don’t get too excited or Al Gore might have a conniption.
