The cosmos is within us. We are made of star stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself.

You wanna get together later and rub our dust together?
Sounds dirty. Will there be cheese?
What, are you crazy? Of course there will be cheese.
I can’t believe you would even ask me that
Delicious spacedust.
It was exploded, then turned onto something green eventually, then something haunted consumed and excreted it, then something WAY MORE HAUNTED did a bunch of weird shit to it like letting little things fart in it.
Such delicious spacedust.
An explosion is pure entropy. It’s high energy releasing to a low energy state in an uncontrolled manner
We climb down the energy slope very slowly to reverse entropy and create order
The universe is like us - temporary order emerges as it slides towards entropy
But are we actually creating order? To maintain life’s order, we are creating much more disorder somewhere else.
Life is but an entropy maximization machine.
Perhaps another way to think of it is that we’re a patch of localised order in an overall disordered universe
Or perhaps more eloquently:
we’re the standing part of a harmonic fart
I don’t understand this, but it sounds cool.
We’re the fixed red dot in the superposition of the green and blue waves interfering with one other
INSUFFICIENT DATA
If only this was a response AI could give. I think it would solve a lot of the problems
Is there a word for this type of hypersimplification to evoke wonder? If not, can we coin one?

Awendering
A few simple words that just turned my reality upside down? I’m sure Germans have one
Realitätsverschiebung?
Numberwang
This is definitely Numberwang!
My suggestion: Simplificatio Adstupefaciendi - A simplification with the purpose to astonish.
On top of sounding cool it is already astonishing to remember and to be able to spell it!
Too much like a Harry Potter spell tho
Excellent band, by the way.

That sounds awesome.

I hate that this is popular. This is a creationist level understanding of the big bang.
You ever use a spray can for a while and the can gets cold? It’s more like that.
Life is anything that moves, reproduces, senses, grows, respires, excretes and eats.
Consciousness is more mysterious and less well defined.
Yes, but how do living things come into existence? What makes a cell alive?
It’s not about defining what a living being is.
Jiggling. It’s about wiggling and jiggling.
