[@GeorgeP1066]

As a kid and teenager and young adult I was super into space, and I found it really cool and I wanted to go to space. Five years of studying a master's degree in satellite engineering later, I can confidently say that space is really difficult to get to, really difficult to survive in, highly dangerous, and actually pretty boring on a human level, whereas the planet we live on is frigging amazing and in dire need of saving, or else our species won't even be around long enough to try to seriously colonise Mars or anywhere else. Yeah, travelling the galaxy in hyperdrive ships sounds sweet and all, but so does being a wizard or a superhero. None of those things are actually plausible in our lifetimes, if ever. It sucks that reality is so unsympathetic to childhood fantasy, but any fully grown man still wanting to go to space is pretty much no different from a fully grown man still wanting to be a wizard or wanting to be the Flash.

I'm all in favour of astronomy and scientific exploration of our solar system but there is way more unexplored life on Earth than could ever be found in space in our lifetimes, and a lot of that unexplored terrestrial and aquatic life will be extinct in the next couple of decades so I think that should probaby be a higher priority than spamming earth's orbit with hundreds of Musks satellites just to slightly improve internet coverage so that he can cosplay at going to Mars some day.

I just get the impression that Olivia Rodrigo doesn't particularly like nerdy guys. Whether you're talking about experiencing real-life space or sci-fi space, I don't think it matters to her. If you're willing to sit there and go over all the pros and cons, you have to be pretty nerdy. So maybe that's just her personal preference? Which, as a nerdy guy myself, I understand that. Not everyone likes to listen to a guy fantasize about the wonders of space exploration. Fortunately, my wife is just as nerdy, so we've had conversations about all kinds of dorky stuff. But it's not Olivia's thing, and I can respect that.

(me holding coffee cup at outdoor meme table) Everyone should want to go to space. Change my mind.

It is pretty much the same going into a submarine and looking for the Titanic..... You are aware there a three astronauts in space who are stuck there for close to a year who headed out for a week....

Dear Men Who Want To Go To Space: Olivia Rodrigo has just saved you a lot of heartache. Be grateful, just as I am grateful for every dating profile that lists baldness as a deal breaker. Saved me the cost of a date!!!

I don't know what the lack of interest in the endless cosmic wonder is so attractive. But I'll stick to the wonder of my dreams I guess. You do whatever you do I guess

[@eastvandb]

@@Barrel4336 Yeah. Not everyone is going to dream of the same things. So, rather than be angry that someone has different interests, just be grateful that you don't have to waste Olivia Rodrigo's time and yours trying to convince each other to be each other.

@@eastvandb Can't let this one go entirely unfortunately, this one of maybe 4-5 things that I'm very passionate about this triggers that visceral reaction. This comment section doesn't help, it feels like the death of dreams and wonder. Like something deeply human is being lost

[@eastvandb]

@@Barrel4336 Or maybe you're engaging in sophistry.

[@Barrel4336]

@@eastvandb I occasionally do in other scenarios, but not in this one. The endless expanse of space is pure wonder. The question of life being unique to Earth, the various unknown environments of other planets, the thought of going there and learning of a vastly different place to share with the rest of humanity. These are important drivers for many of the decisions I have made in life. This driving curiosity is the same reason that I will go to deserts, mountains, sail the ocean, and find beauty in an unknown iridescent beetle walking across my path. Why I love to consider the long extreme age of the Redwood Forests and the unfathomable terror of the deep ocean in the same way. These are things to stand for and be proud of, these are things I truly believe makes us as humans more "Us". It is as binding to the human experience as the hum of a drumbeat and the emotional flavor of a nostalgic dish.

[@cptsketch13]

Taylor funny as always. But I'm curious what Olivia Rodrigo is trying to figure out with that question? Does it help cut back on the Elon bro's? Does she not like Star Wars? I need answers as why this pop star hates space. Edit: just googled to see if she elaborated. Its the Elon and Bezos thing and I totally get her reasoning.

[@SylviusTheMad]

If I hadn't already voted for Grandpa Buff & Franklin, I'd vote for Taylor Tomlinson.

[@clarkkenttheman]

Its a weird question...if shes using that as a way to filter out guys thats sad

[@cptsketch13]

She elaborates on it in the actual interview Taylor doesn't show you and why. It's not just a yes or no question it's to filter out Elon bros.

[@clarkkenttheman]

@cptsketch13 still weird question

[@cptsketch13]

@@clarkkenttheman in the context of a first date as kind of like an interview and when you hear what she compares it to it makes sense. To put it in perspective Grimes(Musk's Ex) understands why Rodrigo asks about it and agrees with her. The way she frames the question and how the guy answers let's her weed out Crypto Tech Bros.

@cptsketch13 still weird question...it was asked would u wanna go to moon or space...and if they answer yes...no mare dates

[@Wico90YT]

Yes space. But like real space. Not the SpaceX Virgin Galactic "almost space" bullshit.

[@donjones4719]

Are you trying to make me bang my head against the wall? Virgin Galactic has the "almost space" spaceplane. Blue Origin has the "moment in space" capsule. SpaceX has the Dragon spacecraft, the one that's taken ~40 people to orbit, including people from Europe, Russia, the Middle East, and Japan. And those are the ones sent by their nations to the international Space Station to work for 6 months, not a brief joyride. Differences are important. Am I an Elon Musk fanboy? No. Am I enthusiastic about space exploration? Yes.

[@omerpockard7212]

Elon Musk also went on an almost/barely space flight. Just because SpaceX does true flights doesn't mean they don't do stupid stunts. Meanwhile, not enough people know about millionaire Dennis Tito, who paid his way into a 6 day trip on the ISS in 2002 (plus another day traveling back and forth).
