it’s not a move to make the godlike aliens love us. it’s commentary on how everyone has something they believe in and for ellie that was her faith in science and her faith in her father

the person who responded to this with “kids lie” actually reminded me of a key reason I was miserable as a child, which was that adults approached any interaction we had with the assumption that I was lying to them (or about to) and I had no way to convince them otherwise

came to bed and Grace had fallen asleep on top of the covers, fully clothed, with the lights on. Gently said “hey butthole do you want me to turn the light off” and she woke up and very sternly informed me that she was “NOT a butthole”
