    I swear that every year for the past 20 years:

    • A signal from aliens is found
    • A “structure” is discovered in space (the structure is gas)
    • AIDS is cured
    • Cancer is cured
    • Evidence of water is found on Mars

    My brain has boy-who-cried-wolf’d itself into ignoring stories about these topics because I’ve been trained to believe that they’re bullshit lol

      At least one of those has come true. Frozen water has 100% been confirmed on Mars.

      Now, the wishful part this year is liquid water being detected underground by seismometers (sp?)
