Why is a bright future assumed?
Sun eventually goes supernova.
It doesn’t. It’s not massive enough. It turns into a red giant, then collapses into a white dwarf and eventually fusion basically stops.
Yeah but in the process it’ll scour the surface off the earth so it’s not all bad news
Alternatively, if we wait long enough we always have the heat death of the universe to look forward to.
I read in this book that there’s a restaurant just before that happens where you can bounce back and forth between the death of the universe and the hours before it. So that sounds cool.
Shh!" said Ford. “It’s conical. So what you do is, you see, you fill it with fine white sand, alright? Or sugar. Fine white sand, and/or sugar. Anything. Doesn’t matter. Sugar’s fine. And when it’s full, you pull the plug out… are you listening?” “I’m listening.” "You pull the plug out, and it all just twirls away, twirls away you see, out of the plughole. “Clever.” “That’s not the clever bit. This is the clever bit, I remember now that this is the clever bit. The clever bit is that you then thread the film in the projector… backwards!” “Backwards?” “Yes. Threading it backwards is definitely the clever bit. So then, you just sit and watch it, and everything just appears to spiral upwards out of the plughole and fill the bath. See?” “And that’s how the Universe began is it?” said Arthur. “No,” said Ford, "but it’s a marvelous way to relax.
Not before ballooning up and frying the Earth.
Yeah that’s totally not a worse death.

Sorry what learning and expanding are you talking about? Can you please be specific about which years and give a source?
Humanity will not exist long enough to reach said bright future
I’m worried the bright future will start right as the last humans die…
That’s why it’s called the bright future… Right?
Another alternative is that we’re already living in the “Golden Age” of Mankind, which is kind of scary to think about.
yall want a bright future but when people start actually fighting for one you show your colors as class betraying cowards
They want a bright future just for themselves. Not for the society as a whole

I mean that’s the brightest future right, them bombs give out all kinds of light.
Yeah, you’re mostly missing the ages prior to middle. Like stone, which was pretty huge.
Ok, added some bars to the left
Ah, much better. lol
yep, also a viable variant
We don’t have time for your full scale reality. The luxury is gone to shop for quality. It is all a sacrifice of illusion now.

If you want to be “accurate” middle age and now would be the same line (because the last millennia is about 0.33…% of homo sapien’s history) and bright future would be pretty fucking long because there’s at least a billion years ahead of us for life on Earth, probably more…
Oh I can see you don’t read news
Lol
Humans aren’t the only beings living on this planet and other life forms will thrive long past the point where homo sapiens disappear.
