     I've been thinking of doing more 'Space Journey Battles' content within the context of my art.  It kind of sounds like a fun idea.  I only like doing things these days if they are somewhat fun, otherwise 'what is the point?'
     I don't know.

     SJB is basically a parody of Star Wars, and all things 'science fictiony'.  I can't help but make fun of it all, as so much of it is so ridiculous.

     The funny thing is, with advances made in science, what used to be fiction, like 'alternate universes', is now considered to be serious scientific theories.

     I just spent a day watching the latest scientific documentaries on youtube.  It is good stuff.
     One thing that sticks out that I've only seen mentioned once is one guy decided to look for exo-planets, which are planets outside of our solar system.  The scientific community literally laughed at him, even right to his face.  That all changed once he found one.  Now they have discovered over four hundred of them, and even one that may have Earth like conditions.
     The scientific community needs to cop up that they laughed at this guy, and made him feel really bad, so he showed them, probably just to spite them.  Then they recognize him as a hero, but they never fess up to what bastards they were.

     Another case of this phenomenon was in 1960 when some lecturer said to a packed audience, "Someday computers will be the size of your hand".
     The scientific community had a good laugh at that for years.
     They aren't laughing about this point now.  Instead they are crying, wishing they had made better investments in small computer technology.

     Then I was watching all these documentaries, and I came across a 'Creationist' video, saying that humans used to ride on top of dinosaurs, which is just ridiculous.  The problem is that they think the Earth is only 7000 years old, like it 'says' in The Bible, which itself, is quite fictional.
     These creationist bastards will get a brutal treatment in my fiction.  Maybe I'll have them imprisoned on the planet Blugargg.
