Stephen Hawking on my mind

After finding myself on the winning side of a bet with a good friend last week (over whether Stephen Hawking was dead), I saw this article, in which Hawking states…well, the obvious. Humans are spending the goodwill of their home planet (if indeed this is the home planet) and need to start looking to other worlds to inhabit. And quickly.

Which leads me to another thought I have from time to time: Dammit if it isn’t going to be the rich, white assholes who’ve had such a large role in screwing this planet up who are going to be the ones who get to colonize other worlds.

Oh well, the meek shall inherit the earth.
