🔥The ice giants
Oh, this one's tricky. Do people have strong enough feelings about the ice giants for opinions about them to be unpopular? Even NASA doesn't care enough about them to send a spacecraft more than once in a blue moon. I think I'll try to weasel out of this one with the opinion 'all planets are interesting, even Neptune,' on the grounds that uninterestingness is itself the dominant opinion.
The midcentury explorations of the solar system were, in retrospect, kind of crushing for the human imagination. We went from totally unbounded speculations about the diversity of worlds- imagining robust ecosystems on Venus and Mars as late as the 50s and early 60s- to a series of photographs showing cratered, dead, atmosphere-less worlds. And 'realism' became accepting these photographs, building a story of the cosmos that is not just sterile but quite simple, treating the solar system as conforming closely to low-complexity models of planetary formation. Gravity collects micrometeorites and gas particles in planetoids and moons according to the ratios predicted by temperature and distance from the center of the accretion disk; terrestrial worlds close in, gas giants further out, ice giants further still. The planets sort themselves by density, with interior deformation or sortition based on thermal gradients, radioactive decay, magnetic forces; moons find a stable orbit or don't, and that's that.
But the thing is, once you actually get past that superficial Voyager flyby-photograph, these worlds all tend to have dramatic and exciting particularities of their own. Look at Pluto! Look at Titan! Look at Enceladus! Look at Ceres! Probably the most boring and well-studied planet I can think of is Mercury, and even that has cool stuff like solid ice at the surface.
Part of this is just noticing over time that the interface between planets and space (that is, their surface) is not always or even usually the most interesting part of them, and assumptions to the contrary are an understandable but misleading form of Earth-chauvinism.
And a larger share of it, I think, is just that once you get something substantially larger than an asteroid, the combined influence of so much volume, so much mass, and so much time just tends to amplify the variance of your system incredibly far beyond what you'd expect from your 'terrestrial, gas giant, ice giant' template. The model is actionably useful, don't get me wrong, and worlds rarely vary so much that they outright break their category. But nothing the size of a moon or planet is actually simple, and nothing on the scale of four billion years is actually stable. And so each of these things, no matter how straightforward the template, will gradually tilt and totter its way within an unfathomably large space of possibilities to something that is practically speaking unique, and which reveals something new about the cosmos that you can't find anywhere else.
If the ice giants seem simple, it's a reflection of our methods and our technological limits, not the planets themselves. We are, generally speaking, absolutely terrible about investigating gaseous worlds on their own terms- and maybe we simply don't have the right tools or the right questions yet to figure out what makes Neptune and Uranus special. But it's only a matter of time.

while i 1000 percent believe it has been twisted to suit a leftist agenda, the people who believe climate change is completely fake are legitimately fucking braindead

I wonder how many of these trolls who spread that stupid conspiracy that Vince sacrificed Skylar know that a chemical company was dumping radiation near where Vince and sharise lived at and gave many of the residents cancer which included their daughter
clock it anon! but if you told them this they’d either disregard it or ignore you altogether. these ppl don’t want to know the actual truth they just want to spread hate and they’ll do it regardless of the actual facts. didn’t the residents sue the company too? yeah it was a big thing at the time im sure, but those conspiracy theorists somehow don’t take two seconds out of their day to research it or don’t care to. also…i can’t believe companies like that get away with doing it in the first place. you wonder why climate change and health problems are at an all time high rn, meanwhile you got companies dumping chemicals and shit like that into the ocean. funny how that’s not even a conspiracy theory but those idiots would rather run around screaming about vince neil “sacrificing his child” than the actual important things…interesting.

the sky cries with me as i stare at the lives i could have lived.
regret showers me as i dwell in my own disgusting mess of thoughts. how i have missed everything that was and could have been in my life. how everyone seems to get what i need. the longing to be touched and felt rushes in my blood. i need, no, i want. i want everything and nothing so bad, it hurts.
oh Lord, spare me from my misery. take me with You now.

I lied, yes I did I never understood How I should treat myself I swear I meant well That night when you hid You told me this was good I told you what I felt The words came out like “I will miss you, I won’t go” but they Fell through every open wound
So why did I wait? It took eleven days I guess I like this chase Or I’m complacent I said I need time You told me that was fine Well I guess you fucking lied The words came out like “You won’t miss me, you don’t care I was so scared, why weren’t you there?”
Why can’t you love yourself? Why can’t you love yourself? Why can’t you love yourself? Why can’t you love yourself?

i really need to find a new job because crazy people in masks and costumes keep taking random stuff from our home (before anyone says anything: we lock the doors and windows all the time, that just doesn't do much against people with superpowers) and also because i think they are legally required to heat the working space when it gets cold enough
