Pretty much the title. I’ve been watching more realistic super hero shows like The Boys and Invincible. The reoccurring themes is that with great power comes great immorality.

I think it’s easy for us normies to respect other people and their property because there are clear consequences for violating social norms. But what would the average person do if they had super powers?

    Can you imagine how it would be like to see Theia about to hit proto-Earth just above you? Then “pause” the scene and look at it a few hundred kilometres away…

    Or just peek inside the clouds of the gas giants…

    Or the depths of frozen moon oceans…

    Or stars being slingshot’ed near supermassive black holes …

    Dang, it almost feels like a curse to know how big and vast the universe is while being confined inside a single body for a few decades…
