Since brown dwarfs are considered to be failed stars, Jupiter would be a "failed failed star".

God Jupiter, get your shit together.

Actually if Jupiter did get its shit together enough to start fusion I bet that would be a catastrophic event for earth so, sorry for being mean, Jupiter, thanks for tanking most of the asteroids for us, keep doing your thing, I think your red spot is very avant-garde.

Apparently Jupiter's gravity well can work both ways, either stopping asteroids from reaching us or giving them just enough energy to reach us. It's quite impartial at that. This video from Braintruffle covers the gravitational dynamics: https://youtu.be/1zu41rrc_Ng
