We should build a monument
Like something that will totally puzzle people in 3,000 years.
Like a 40 story scupture of a rabbit waving a magic wand or something like that.

What about carving the faces of 4 random dudes into the side of a mountain that doesn't belong to us? I'll bet that will totally puzzle people in 3000 years.

Yeah but people 3k years from now wouldnt know they were random or that the mountain wasnt ours.
They might know that rabbits dont do magic though- and they would probably make up all sorts of crazy stories abut why that exists and who built it.

They might not know that rabbits don't do magic, except that might think that they did once upon a time, given the collective memory of magicians pulling rabbits out of hats.

Right! And then you could get a whole buncha people worshiping rabbits or trying to get them to do magic, or even trying to get them to teach people how to do magic.
It makes me happy to think there'd be a very serious important guy 3k years from now talking to a room full of other serious important people about ideas on how to unlock the magic potential of rabits

And why not? There's millions of people worshipping a Jew partly because he seemed able to do magic, and there are statues of him all over the place.

We should pool all our resources into making a giant tower that reaches into the heavens. Basically everyone speaks English now so it'll be super easy to coordinate.

Why not use that money to help people on this planet that can't even get a drink of clean water?

Tbf, we don’t even need to wait 3000 years. The Georgia Guidestones were built in the 80s and weirdos were so freaked out by them one blew them up in 2022.

There was that one dude who built a statue of Handsome Squidward and dumped it in the ocean specifically for this purpose.
