What if oxygen is poisonous and it just takes 75-100 years to kill us?

My science teacher said he thinks that's true actually

Yeah this is actually pretty much what is going on. It's why anti-oxidants are such a big deal. Bonus fact: oxygen oxidizes stuff in your cells or, in other words, it's not toxic, just setting you in fire very slowly.

What if there are aliens out there but they subsist on entirely different substances and they're just scared as shit of us and our crazy ass hell planet? Once in a while some alien anthropologist type suggests checking out the on this inhabited planet out towards the galaxy's edge. The other aliens just look at the naive academic with horror. No!! We do not go to that world. That is where DEATH BREATHERS live. They recreationally consume poisons and are more or less composed of biological fire. Their atmosphere is made of rocket fuel. We must leave the DEATH BREATHERS in peace. Do not go there. Do not.

I am so fucking inspired.

I hate when 10 year olds on Tumblr talk like they know shit. They don't. They're 10 and are as dumb as your typical 10 year old. You wanna know about antioxidants and whether or not they're all that? Here:

Spoiler alert; antioxidants aren't recommended because we breathe oxygen and are setting ourselves on fire. 🙄 You'll also note that various alleged benefits require more research and study to confirm, as current information is inclusive.
Human planet also has an unusual core made of iron which creates a crushing gravity. Gravity is actually so strong that even the gas that sorrounds the planet pushes on everything with a pressure of over 10 tons / m2. And when weather makes the pressure slightly less severe humans are like "I don't feel so good, the atmosphere is not crushing me nearly enough".
Earth has high gravity for its size?
It's hard to compare to exoplanets as we barely even know their sizes let alone densities. But in our solar system earth is the densest of 5.5g/cm3. Close are only Mercury 5.4 and Venus 5.2. Then you have Mars 3.9, Io 3.5, Moon 3.3, Europa 3.0, Triton 2.0, Ganymede 1.9, Pluto 1.9, Callysto 1.8...
Is not a big sample size, but I'd still assume that such dense planets (high gravity for their size) as Earth are not very common.
Humans be like: "step on me Earth mommy"
100% of creature drinking waters on this planet dies eventually. Water is poisonous. Checkmate hydrohomies!
i wonder if the "science" teacher will teach them how to test that hypothesis. maybe with some experiments
I can't seem to find it now, but there is a story out there that earth is considered a lethal planet and the wider alien universe considered it unable to support life, or something like that. It was kind of a "never ending" book as it was constantly being added to.
That's it! I got pretty far into it. Such a great story
One of the Humanity, Fuck Yeah! settings that multiple authors have contributed to?
Another poster found it
"Death Breathers" would make a great name for a heavy metal band.
OP you should delete this retarded shit.
Edit: I'm high and realized you might be a child. Tumblr is a place where mentally ill folks confidently post utter bullshit.
Sooner or later someone from the antimatter part of the universe will come here and make contact. Then boom .
