not crediting xkcd: it’s a crime!
Worse, they didn’t include the title text.
The problem:
Standard too high, will see a comic I want to share and won’t get around to it because there’s work involved…. yeah I should figure out how to code
The light is just so they can see you better and they actually just lasso you like cattle with an invisible rope. Physicists be damned.
Alr-text:
Did you base the saucer shape on pop culture depictions of aliens, or was that stuff based on your ships? Does the rotational symmetry help with … hey, where are you going?
Alien: … yeah get the tranquilizer gun … and the anal probe … no, no, not that one … no, no, bigger … no, bigger and wider … yeah, that’s the one
Me: desperately trying to climb up tractor beam “owo”
Imagine hearing about this fabled thing all your life and then immediately after grabbing onto you it ghosts you.
Honestly, I’d probably think I was dissociating first
