Hopefully we won’t need to be ruled by a worm god-emperor for 3500 years in order to survive

Hey Quinn, I was taking an Uber the other day and the driver brought up that he loves Scifi and asked if I was aware of the three body problem movie and book series. For the next 35 minutes or so, we got so wrapped up in discussing various scifi books, time flew by. He was fascinated, as am I, with all things Scifi, especially books. I gave him a list of my favorite titles, which happen to be almost all recommendations by you. I also told him to watch you on youtube and patreon. You've got a new fan! Fuuny thing he said was, the way I explained a book made him super excited to want to go read it. Thanks for your recommendations!

Hey Quinn, before the year ends just wanted to write to you. I've been reading science fiction since I was twelve years old. Where I'm from, it's not big even in literature circles. I never had anyone to discuss these stories with so I always kept my thoughts to myself. These past few years coming across your channel and seeing it grow from a small niche youtube channel to a full fledged sci-fi content creator has been such a rewarding experience. Not only did you bring me back to the books of my childhood but introduce me to new and fascinating authors and stories. It's been a tough year but your content has kept me sane and enthusiastic. I wish you all the love and luck in the world and I cannot wait to see you reach more people in the coming years. Live long and prosper!

Finding out that we aren't alone in the universe and neither be faced with malice nor kindness. But pity. That has to sting.

"Is this the end of the world?" "No. But you can see it from here."

After watching dozens of Quinn's videos I've come to the conclusion that we should probably like his videos so the algorithm notices him.

The kicker is that, theoretically, it would have been incredibly easy for these aliens to save humanity. All they needed to do was find enough individuals who had mentally evolved beyond the dangerous tendencies that doomed humanity, and move them to another habitable planet. Because the problem isn't that humanity can't overcome its flaws. The problem is that it is easier to destroy than create. The intellectual evolution that can save us isn't fast enough, because those less evolved can wipe us all out.
