@SNEK All Tommorrows is a Book about a Sadistic Alien Race landing on Earth and doing Evolutionary Experiments with Humanity, purposefully creating Species not fit for a good Life.

@Waldbrand @SNEK WAIT A SECOND
IIRC THE ALIENS ARE JUST HUMANS ADAPTED TO LIVING IN SPACE
AND THE FUCKED UP EVOLUTIONARY EXPERIMENTS ARE INITIALLY JUST DIFFERENT ADAPTATIONS OF HUMANITY
LIKE, THE BIG SPLIT IS BETWEEN THE GUYS WHO GO INTO SPACE VS THE GUYS WHO STAY
THE ONES WHO STAY END UP RELYING ON TECH SO MUCH THEY BECOME COMPLETELY UNFIT TO LIVE WITHOUT TECH
MEANWHILE THERE'S AMISH WHO KEEP ON CHOOGLIN
ANC THEN THE TECH HEDONISTS GO "BIOLOGY IS JUST TECH, WE CAN'T REPRODUCE AND WILL DIE OUT SOON, SO LET'S MAKE HUMANOIDS BIOLOGICALLY ADAPTED TO THEIR ENVIRONMENT AND THEY'LL GO AND LIVE WHEN WE'RE GONE"
AND THOUSANDS OF YEARS LATER THE SPACE GUYS RETURN AND JUST TREAT THESE DEMIHUMANS AS ANIMALS

@nugger @Waldbrand @SNEK I've heard this one. That: the grays are actually humanity from the far flung future where technology has left them with giant eyes and brains but atrophied bodies so they are all small and diminutive. And they aren't really from far out in space they are from Earth and are just time traveling back to see where they went wrong evolutionary.

@StoleMyThundersBalls @nugger @Waldbrand @SNEK This is basically the plot of the XCOM reboot, alien overlords looking for new host species that is physically strong while also psychically gifted.
