Disclosure day was terrible. I think the most confusing part of the plot (spoilers I guess) was simply the idea that aliens having been around for like 75 years and not having done anything bad would be a big enough revelation that it would stop literally every single person in their tracks and take priority over the WW3 news story that preceded it?? Like I don't think I would care THAT much? And the religion bit--the idea that monotheism would be destroyed as a concept if aliens exist is...stupid.

Uuuuuuugh the way I am so indifferent to anything we could theoretically do to aliens when we are actively murdering actual humans, future generations, literally anyone who isn’t a multi millionaire. Also who wrote the dialogue? We’re calling it the device? The leak is “on social.” And the acting choices! Why is everyone behaving like they’re in a Spielberg movie from 30 years ago? Why is EVERY eye damp as they deliver lines? It’s like live action Pixar acting. Also why am I so grumpy?!
