Remember all those movies and cartoons where people are shrunk and then live great adventures crossing the carpet in the room, bathing in the kitchen sink, flying on paper airplanes? Oh, good memories. So much fun.


Unfortunately for us who ever wished to shrunk so can ride the back of a fly didn’t know that only about 5% of what was shown on tv were true, and the other 95% was covered with censorship.  


If we shrink, what we will find are not cute animals making funny dances, but a lot of angry-faced and weird-boded animals wanting to take the crap hell out of you, literally. You see, there is this vast and diverse world, more than ours that just because we don’t see doesn’t exist. A world within our world, a world that covers our own world, a world that exists since before ours. We should have come in peace. This is so vast that it literally send Adam and Eve take “up yours”.


We really should have come in peace.
