What's the point of getting laid if you don't produce at least 2 children in your lifetime? A waste of time to still be genetically unsuccessful and end your lineage as if you were a permavirgin.

Anyway, as much as I hope to continue my lineage, does it really matter in the end? I will never perceive as them, so why should I care. And my lineage will end EVENTUALLY- it's not as if humanity will continue until the end of all things.

Can you really imagine humanity going on for millions and millions and millions of years until at some point the universe might go "fuck it I'm tired" and do something wacky?

Even then, I'm already dead. I'm not going to care about my robotic, tentacled alien descendants who can perceive the 8th dimension of my inner asshole that are barely even genetically human anymore. I'm going to be too dead to give a shit.

Even if there were, nobody'd do it. Distance isn't the problem; it's velocity and momentum. You'd have to quickly slow down the asteroid, then put a bunch more momentum on it to get back on an Earth transfer orbit, then slow it down *again* to insert it into Earth orbit.

You want to go for asteroids that are going as slowly as possible relative to Earth, which means that big honking asteroids zooming past us are exactly the opposite of what you want.

all you have to do is slingshot a pretty big boulder at the asteroid through space and it would slow down and go off trajectory

What double decker bus is 100m wide (or even long, for that matter)?
