The opposite of “bonfire” is, presumably, “malice.”

today i found out that when monarch butterflies migrate south for the winter, all the ones that go across the middle of lake superior suddenly stop going south and go west for five miles and then continue south. which really freaked scientists out cos like What is in the Middle of Lake Superior what do Butterflies know that We Dont Is This The End Times etc. anyway turns out about a hundred million years ago there was a mountain there and the butterflies still think they gotta fly around it. classic butterflies

I guess this is the game where you can play the level where Kira stomps on dukat

why have i not seen anyone talking about how fundamentally nihilist no man's sky is? like.

the entire story of the game revolves around the fact that the entire universe is ending soon and that you don't know how long you have left to live before everything you know and love is completely and utterly gone. and there is nothing anyone or anything can do to save it.

and yet the game tells you: go. explore. make the most of the time you have. discover new things and make friends and create wonders. not because they'll last, but because they won't. because the things you find and create are worth seeing even if no one will ever remember them.

and when the time comes? sit back with your buddy at the end of everything, pour yourself a drink, and toast to oblivion.

The message of friendship and love in No Man's Sky kills me every fucking time and I will Never get over it. Ever. Nada and Polo found each other and stayed with each other first as a need of staying safe and then out of love for each other and for every Traveller who needs them. Artemis just wanted to find friends to explore the galaxy with people they loved. Artemis died for love and (if the player chooses) is revived in a smaller, simpler existence, to continue doing what they love, and it is done out of a place of love. Apollo thinks friends are a cheap lie to make oneself feel better about being alone in a cold and unloving universe. But over time they learn to love you too. They learn to call you their friend. They learn that friends are vital to a complete existence. -null- just wanted to make the Atlas happy and show it their love to it in utter devotion to their purpose as an explorer and -null- was shunned for it.

The Traveller, you, brings love into a vast and colorful universe. You hear the Atlas' cry of 16, 16, 16, 16, and you have the choice to reset it in an act of mercy. Or you can turn away from it and let it run its course in order to preserve the love you've built.

No Man's Sky is about love and being loved
