@jeffjarvis I’m sure that in the cosmic scheme of things, this is just fine.

In the immediate, however, it may mean the decimation of life on Earth as we know it. Oh well. I guess it will all work out eventually.

Humans are probably known throughout the universe as a life form that poops in their own bed.
