      No such thing. You pay regressive taxes such as sales tax, tariffs and your landlord’s property tax.

        Yeah, but kind of ruins the joke of not filing taxes. Also, not part of it but just for the fact 1/3 of my money comes from federal taxes (VA survivors grant) funny enough I think I actually pay less then what I receive, yay, thank you U.S. army for leeching the soul of my father and breaking my mom beyond repair.

    If we go further until reaching the structure of the universe, the perspective is way clearer

        It’s like asking if one of the quarks in your body has pedo tendences, putting it in relation, it turns irrelevant. If the Earth and the whole Sunsystem disappear or is destroyed, nobody outside will notice the difference. We are only fly shit in the library of history.

      Not to mention, that this is an artist-enhanced version of composite pictures released by NASA that was included with MacOS X 10.7 as the default wallpaper … so not really a photograph either.

        A real photography from the total Milky Way don’t exist, because we are part of it and at the moment not capable to leave enough to make a photo of the whole thing. All photos are recreations, inspired by the aspect of other galaxies, eg. Andromeda, or also from mathematic models, using the distances from the other objects.

        A lot of the images from the NASA or ESA, are recreations or at least with edited colors, because they are made with radio-or infrared telescopes having as result only a list of numbers or contrast maps. It’s like sharing in Lemmy, instead of an memr, the hex values of the B/W image.
