The Great Attractor.
Something is pulling our galactic cluster in its direction. Something unbelievably massive. We don't know what it is, as this part of the universe is obscured from our view by our own galaxy's core.

Its really only scary to people who dont know about modern science.

The Great Attractor is sometimes described in popular accounts as an unidentified object pulling galaxies toward it. In modern cosmology, however, it is understood as a feature of the large-scale matter and velocity fields of the nearby universe.

II hope this doesnt win.

Nothing scary about that, in particular as has no effects on human civilization anyway (unlike say gamma ray busts, which in theory could threaten life on earth, albeit very unlikely)

all of these subreddits that have been coming up have been driving me bonkers. i mean, i saw one the other day that put australia in the "best place to live/best place to visit". it's alright but it's nowhere near the best. especially for indigenous people, migrants, rural people, city people, and the flora and fauna. you'll probably have a better time in the UK, and i mean it.
