I already have issues with the Dark Forest Theory, but here's my take (from some geek who hasn't been active on tumblr for at least a decade).
My proposal is what I call the Angler, Poison Frog, or Rattlesnake Theory (or Loud AF Proposal):
We ARE in a dark forest, but we're considered "loud as fuck" because of all the signals we dish out; we make it clear to everyone that we want to be seen. In nature, rattlesnakes announce their presence to avoid getting stepped on or scare predators. Anglerfish lure their prey by sending out lights. Poison frogs are colorful to warn predators that they're poisonous.
The problem for the aliens is determining if the species that just sent out a probe is trying to warn, communicate, or lure the rest of the galaxy into their grubby, presumably sweaty hands.
Aliens probably have noticed us, but since we're the only people looking for other lifeforms, we might be sending the wrong message. The logical move for everyone else isn't striking first, it's staying the fuck away from the one species that wants to be noticed. And the longer this goes on, the more it's accepted by everyone else that we're just not worth contacting.
Which kind of leads us to one option all Disco Elysium fans (and I guess W40k fans who don't know what the fuck happens next) will enjoy:
Eldritch Evil: Impossible! How are you not going mad in my presence?
Stock Broker: Have you ever done futures in this economy?
Teacher: Have you ever taught 30 school kids in this era?
Dungeon Master: Have you ever tried designing a puzzle for a party of 7?
"Claws like sharpened bananas shot toward me."
this sentence is
good
bad
ITS EVOCATIVE! LIKE GREAT BIG HUGE BANANAS EXCEPT SHARP!
YOU DO IT ON ONE OF THESE! OBVIOUSLY!!!
a lot of people are very angry with me over this, but I'd just like you to sit down and imagine a banana. maybe a green one so it's extra firm. if you need it to be harder, you can toss it in the freezer.
and that brown end? the hard bit? pencil sharpener. or sharpened with a blade. are you following me? now, attach six of those to a harpy.
yeah. I think you're seeing the vision. you can apologize to me any time you're ready
check in time:
I see the vision
it's still really bad
GOD DAMN IT!
sometimes artists worry if their art is actually capable of making the world a better place, or if its all just wasted effort. what you need to remember is: all art is evil, and the sole aspiration of the artist should be to maim as many onlookers as possible.
Hey imagine having a garden separated from the street by a high wall, and then building a ramp to your garden with a cat door at human head level, both at just the right height so your dog can peer outside without bothering anyone.
This way, the dog can safely observe the world outside and judge everyone without any risk of someone getting out or in. And why would you want the cat flap on human head level? Simple. Anubis mural.

skyrim followers are so funny like you'll be fighting alduin on the throat of the world for the first time and then they hit you with a "I've done a lot of… questionable things in my life. Serving Vaermina was a horrible mistake, and I hope Mara will forgive me one day." like Erandur my brother in mara we might have bigger worries right now I don't think it's a good time to tell me about your trauma there's a lizard and it wants us to die
