I don't know about the rest of you, but if somebody spots Shai-hulud out in the Sahara I'm outta here.

At the end of Dune.... Chani is heartbroken... Needing to get away...

   Oh I'm a leavin' on a Shai-hulud
   Don't know when I'll be back again..

Out of here to where?

  • Outside of the environment?

    • Senator Collins: It’s not in an environment. It’s been towed beyond the environment.

      Interviewer: But it must be somewhere… Well what’s out there?

      Senator Collins: Nothing’s out there!

      Interviewer: Well there must be something out there.

      Senator Collins: There is nothing out there - all there is is sea, and birds, and fish.

      Interviewer: And?

      Senator Collins: And 20,000 tons of crude oil.

      Interviewer: And what else?

      Senator Collins: And fire

Honestly, bring on Leto II. Fuck it.

  • Yeah apparently we need to get our ass kicked seriously to get our shit together to make it further and not die choking in our tiny blue spot.

    Maybe not for 3500 years, but look what world WWII brought after it ended. We need that millennia-spanning perspective.
