      It actually won't explode, just implode. The process of becoming a red giant is quite gradual even by cosmological standards, taking about a billion years.

      I'd always kind of assumed the sun would hit some point of not having enough fuel to sustain the fusion reactions and everything going to hell pretty quickly, but I suppose it does make sense that it's a slow process.

            Gender identity is wayy to complex for a simple example and it's at least partially something natural.

            Also I didn't say that something invented has to be real.

            Even Dragons and Witches are real in their own context. They don't exist in this world but they exist in the world of the stories being told about them.

      Not quite. Humans evolved to exist in small hunter-gatherer groups, which I would not consider societies. Curiously, these were very egalitarian and people only worked for about 20 hours a week, and the varied lifestyle and diet was optimal for our health. It is really with society that all our problems started

      Edit: spelling and clarification

          Fair point. My mother tongues have slightly different definitions for their words for "society"
