**AITA for telling my friend his astronaut obsession is a red flag🚩?**

**AITA for telling my friend his astronaut obsession is a red flag🚩?**

So my buddy Pierre (32M) unironically thinks he’s the main character in a NASA recruitment ad. He’s been training for a “mission to Mars” for 5 years. Has zero degrees in STEM. Lives off his mom’s basement and Jolly Ranchers. Claims he can survive on “vibes and freeze-dried ice cream.”

But the kicker? Yesterday he posted a 47-minute YouTube video titled **“Pierre Denies Gravity: Why the Moon Landing is a Simulation (but I’m real).”** TL;DR: He says flat-Earth is a psy-op, but Mars is real because *he* has dreams about it. Now he’s crowdfunding for a rocket made of cardboard and spite.

I told him maybe he should focus on, idk, reality? He called me a “NPC in the Matrix.” AITA for not supporting his delusions, or should I just let him re-enact *The Martian* with extra cheese?

**Comments:**
**- NAH.** He’s basically a cryptid at this point. Let him vibe.
**- YTA** for not realizing this is the plot of *Don’t Look Up* irl. 💀
**- INFO:** Is his rocket sponsored by Temu? Asking for a friend.
