Imagine an argument between a flat earther and a hollow earther.
@@metanumia I salute you for the effort, comrade!
An empty argument that would go in circles. Although the theory that we live inside a hollow earth and the star's are a projection already pancaked the theories together so they'd probably get around the holes and agree.
@@jameslyon7300 I'd doubt there would be any agreement there.
It is most likely going to be a matter of a mutual relentless scorn and bafflement that someone can be so stupid.
No earther
@@SubMeISubYouu ha you people still believe in Earth. What sheep. If you'd just open your eyes you might see that we've been living on Mars!
Much love but please don’t ever let an alarm go that long again. Chur.
It hasn't been used for, what, a year xD. I had to skip most of it too, so...
Yeah, that's a slapable offense!
Hahaha no kidding
Same
I skipped it but 42 secs of woo woo is a little much. Other then that 42 seconds great video!!
“our entire reality is nothing more than the dream of an infinite consciousness”. that is one of the coolest but most existentially terrifying things i’ve ever heard
It's not terrifying once you realize this 'infinite consciousness' is 'just' your real identity, read/study 'a course in miracles' and 'a course of love' for instance... or countless other timeless divinely inspired mystical traditions for that matter!
@69Kevrod2012 - _The Perennial Philosophy_ by Aldous Huxley suggests that this insight is what nearly all of the world's major religions and mystical traditions are ultimately trying to get at!
(At least that's what I've heard...haven't actually read it, haha.)
@@69Kevrod2012I’d rather have MY consciousness. We’re not a hive mind. Otherwise we’d all look the same and wouldn’t be able to think for ourselves. Leave that kind of thinking to the mindless insects…
@@kingrobotnik6950 Insects are not 'mindless' either, we all share the same Mind whether you like it or not!
I find it strangely comforting.
I actually came up with Last Thursdayism (I called it Last Weekism) in response to some Young Earther telling me that the world was only 6000 years old and everything else that is older was put here just to test our faith. For some reason my example was silly and theirs was not. At least according to them.
Joe: "I really want this episode to reach 20 minutes but I've already covered everything"
Woo-woo alarm: "I'll handle this"
Oh that's what he did with that! Clever.
It was also painful
I’m lying in bed with my wife looking for something to watch quietly on my phone and a fuckin alarm goes off for 45 seconds
So I usually just listen to his videos. For a minute there I thought something was very wrong. 😆
I came back from the dishes because I though my computer crashed with a really annoying audio loop.
Pog second reply
Same thing here. I was browsing on Amazon and then I was like WTF lol.

Thank god for the mute button - had ear buds on 😣
some time after my first serious lsd experience someone asked me about it and i answered somewhat automatically "maybe through a certain set of variables that created human consciousness, there's a bigger consciousness running through the universe",
i know that such thoughts are stereotypical to psychedelics' experiences, but this feeling still haunts me
If everyone say they more or less see the same in trips, (aka rainbows everywhere) can you then still call it a hallucination? If everyone uses DMT and see aliens when they break trough. Is that a hallucination or a portal? Is it a drug or a key?
@@Psilocybism it's a drug
it once occurred to me that if my body is made of individual living cells-if my consciousness is made up of smaller aggregates that all contribute-then why shouldn’t all living things contribute to a greater force in the universe?
@@Abby-km6vrnever thought of that 🤔 now I am lol
Now imagine if you can tap into said "one" consciousness, or "pure" consciousness. Not many believe me, but i was up 3 days straight, molly, coke then acid; on a sunday, no less. That day, something cracked. I remember me and my two friends at the time walked through downtown Chicago, and I remember every light, every body, every door, just allowed me to enter. I can never forget how surreal the world was. Beyond an existential realization, or "understanding" of the notion that this life we live may be un-real, i walked through a world that was pure manifestation, to the most literal way. Since then, i lost my mind for a while, couldn't grapple my body, my person, my identities. I still bring up stories from the past, with certain friends, and they'd tell me, definitively that they weren't there, or it didn't happen. Like i was another person, though i look the same, i didn't feel the same. Like I'm in another version of myself. But I've gotten past that stage. I realize no matter who may have been, i can always choose who i will be. I stopped doing acid, or hallucinogens. But lately, in my sobriety, i find myself, sometimes, able to tap back into the pure manifestation. If i can let go of the strong beliefs of reality, like i had that day, and just let the world be, sometimes it taps back into this flow. What i call the perfect flow. Like i found a groove in the machine of life and am able to flow through. It's, of course, nowhere near as warped as that one time. But i still feel that pure consciousness sometimes.
I really like the Universe-As-A-Neural-Network theory. That makes more sense than most other theories I've ever heard
Read "The Kybalion"
I don't feel like it makes any more sense than anything else in this absurd world, but it puts some sort of meaning into it and that's why people gravitate towards it.
I personally don't believe the universe is actually real. The speed of light is an asymptotic barrier that prevents us from ever reaching anything beyond our local system. It's like a video game where you try to fly your jet off the side of the map, and the game rules prevent you from ever going anywhere that hasn't actually been committed to system memory.
I don't quite understand why people think the theory is crazy. From what I can understand watching this video the scientist proposed that all quantum, atomic and macro-atomic constructions have fundamentally a similar shape because it's the most stable.
He didn't say the universe is actually a brain, or that the universe is a conscious entity.
Like he mentioned, proving this theory wrong would be difficult so take it with a pinch of salt, but he never said quantum structures, atoms, molecules, humans, animals an the universe are part of the same organismo, just that their structures are stable because of evolution.
He certainly seems to be pointing to the structures found in reality itself. I find it it to be both rather elegant and open to extrapolation.
When I was a child (6-8) I imagined that my life is a dream of a giant sleeping polar bear and if the bear wakes up, it would be the end of the world.
Interesting 💖
omgggg the imagination of children is out of control lmfao
That's basically just Azathoth from the Cthulhu Mythos.
When i was younger i thought that the whole world was a little kid playing with toys and when his mom called him to lunch everything would stop.
As a child, I sometimes thought everyone in the world except me was a robot
Woo woo alarm segment made everyone in the park stare at me.
Thanks Joe

How loud is your phone lmao
It scared my cats
Anyone listening to their phone without earphones in public is in fact a weirdo.
It probably was because they were like who is the jerk listening without HEADPHONES!!
I'd love to see you discuss more of these reality theories in the future!!
I sometimes imagine the universe as a cosmic rpg, and the reason bad things happen to good people is their player rolled some bad results. When you die, your player rolls up a new character. We call that "reincarnation".
"This must be Thursday," said Arthur to himself, sinking low over his beer. "I never could get the hang of Thursdays."
it's great that the entire Hitchhiker's series is an explanation of Last Thursdayism

When I was a kid I imagined beyond our universe was a cartoon universe, and every cartoon had it’s own universe. So I was pretty stoked when I heard about the multiverse theory.
My grandpa believes that Biggie and Tupac live in a 2D dimension. Idk where he got that from
"It was only science fiction in the loosest sense, containing elements of fantasy, theology, philosophy and politics" otherwise known staples and some might say core aspects of 99.9% of all sci-fi ever written.
Personally I distinguish fantasy, and much of speculative (alternative history) fiction from science fiction.
Fantasy, theology, philosophy, and politics.... SO, STAR WARS?
@@lminterests5590 1. It's called Historical Fiction 2. Everyone does; hence, the various names 3. Libraries do not all lump them together 4. Yes, writers do fuse & overlap genres 5. Labels are generalities that often don't fit individual cases...or people. 😏
the last thursday theory reminds me of a joke/riddle my brother made when he was little, "everything either is or isn't a potato."
That's...kinda profound.

I mean, he isn't wrong. He might be into philosophy when he gets older.

So what you're saying with that last one is, some guy got so into The Elder Scrolls deep lore that they started literally worshipping the Godhead.

That last theory is really cool and it's definitely been touched on a bunch of times in the past by philosophers and the like, just not to such an amazing scientific extent.
Like the dreaming butterfly.
Although I'm now getting strong flashbacks to that episode of Adventure Time where Fin puts on the glasses and sees that our reality is just a small component of a bigger reality that's identical, then declares himself super smart.

Well, i dont want to believe last thursdayism or solipsism, but Im totes down for the hollow earth theories just cuz I rly want there to be elves from the artemis fowl universe down there.
and I dont see the point in believin in the missin three centuries theory...
So what kind of car do you want this warrantee for and how many years did you have in mind?
And ofc I wanna believe the universe is just its own version of a neural network. To what end and for what purpose? That is beyond imaginable I feel.
I dont imagine some sorta humanoid creature with the universe as its brain tho. Nor any kinda creature for that matter. Nor plantlife. Nor any organism we currently kno of.
Whatever the reason for this universe spannin neural network and what it provides or anything like that wud be seemingly unknowable to us as the mere cells (not even that rly).
We are but the atoms within the building blocks of the cells (with our own quarks (and quirks :p) within us); and our whole solar system itself but like a single part, such as the mitochondria (the powerhouse), of the cell.
We are so far removed from being able to understand for what purpose the universe exists, much farther removed from understanding such than our cells within us are removed from being able to understand why their universe exists and what purpose it exists for.
Can't resist quoting Charles Fort here: "If there is a universal mind, must it be sane?"
Well I don't know who to quote here, but "they" do say that cleanliness is next to godliness! 😲🙃😀
Would it not be the definition of sane as it would be the only model we could base a healthy mind on?
"I think we're all bugs and mice, and are only different expressions of an all-inclusive cheese." -Charles Fort
I can never resist quoting Charlie from Sunny in Philadelphia whenever I watch these videos. Mainly because he looks exactly like him.
Of course, no!!!
I came here for the science and interesting trivia, but stayed for your pacing and witty sense of humor ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
The concept of the universe being one massive singular thing…is part of the main theme of my new book I’m writing
i was in year 2 (1990ish) at an Australian public school when my teacher decided that me writing with my left hand wasn't worth messing up her seating plan , couldnt have me bumping elbows with the kid next to me. so i was forced to write with my right hand. I remember getting scissors cutting home work because i struggled cutting around the patterns. For years i felt like i was stupid for having this extra homework until i was and adult and talking to my mum about school and she explained how the teacher forced me to write/cut with my right hand. I wasn't dumb, i was just being forced to do something that was un-natural to me. Years of shame and embarrassment all over a seating plan. cheers teach.
I'm almost 40 now, i still write with my right and its still messy AF.
that is so sad.
This might make you feel better: Every US Presidential election since 1980 when at least one of the two major parties nominated a left-handed candidate, the winner was left-handed. Reagan, GHW Bush, Clinton, and Obama are all left handed.
This seems to be a major problem with (some) teachers. A friend of mine was forced to write with her right hand by the simple, and cruel, expedient of tying her left hand behind her back - although that was some years before your experience.
Oh, if only we could go back in time, presumably to last Thursday, and have a chat with these icons of the teaching profession.
Only lefties are in their right minds.
It appears some people carry a grudge for a really long time.
I usually turn down the volume when something loud and annoying is on a video but this time I figured he’d only play the sound for a second. After three and a half hours of listening to woo woo at full volume, I finally turned it down and he instantly transitioned. Damn you joe.
Yeah, I listen it through too, because I think he might be on to something. That was the last sliver of trust though. As they say, life and trust you can loose only once.
Yeah he needs to delete and reupload this video.

Is a long WooWoo alarm really that big of a deal lmao
Reminds me of the Deep Space Nine episode where O'Brien spent years in an alien prison, but it was a simulation.
I’ve heard the idea that “we’re all living in a simulation” argument because computer algorithms look like brain structures, or something like that, and I’ve always thought to myself that this is because of convergent evolution. I was elated that the dude who first got this information actually had the natural selection stuff built in to the theory. It’s just everywhere I’ve heard the idea before they cut that bit out. Neat!

My completely love the giants brain theory. That has been a thought in the back of my head ever since I was a child, maybe around 4, when playing with my sister and her dolls, I sat and pondered “I’m giving these dolls thoughts, emotions, actions, dreams, etc..... what if a giant is doing the same thing to me” and ever since then it had messed up my thought process.
Stephen King, "Under The Dome".
I had the same thoughts at 5
Same.. even more so now that I'm playing Sims lol
Whoa... I used to think something VERY similar as a little boy, when playing with the people in my lego town... I thought of it as if I were "their god", and then there was a god over us, and then that god was part of another larger universe, where he had a god, and so on, and so on....

The word sinister has it's roots in left-handedness.
I once had a dream that when I wake up each morning, I live the life of a different person with all their memories intact. I would have a difficult time proving that was false.
the "last Thursday" theory really makes me uncomfortable and anxious, and I'm not sure why.
Because it means we can't trust our memories
Memories are as real as you believe them to be. My brother was bleeding out & close to dying in March, 2019 due to an injury he caused himself due to psychosis caused by methamphetamine usage. I had to pin him down, closing his wounds to prevent him from bleeding out, while he was struggling & beating the living shit out of me trying to get away from me because he thought I was trying to kill him, even though I actually saved his life. What was happening in his brain was reality to him, same as the reality we experience. Our brains are only conveying a specific version of reality to us that has been developed over billions of years of evolution to best help us survive on our planet, but there is much that our senses aren't able to pick up. This is why the scientific method is so important to follow, as it eliminates the human biases that we are all prone to following, & basing our understanding of reality on logic.
@@shannonm7981 you are absolutely right about that. by the way, i'm so sorry that happened. your brother was lucky to have you there with him.

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
Douglas Adams - •The Restaurant at the End of the Universe•
The problem with simulation type theories is that it doesn’t answer the question (“why are we here”), it just kicks the can down the road (“why are the simulation makers here”).
Of course. After all, it's turtles all the way down.
Arguably, that's the problem with any theory I have heard. Like "why are we here?", "Well, ... ... big bang", "okay, but why big bang?"
No scientific theory attempts to answer the question "why". Science only concerns itself with "how".
@@tcphll yeah no. “A scientific theory differs from a scientific fact or scientific law in that a theory explains "why" or "how": a fact is a simple, basic observation, whereas a law is a statement (often a mathematical equation) about a relationship between facts.”
Science and scientists still cares about the why. One would think that if you knew as much about science as you imply you to to be making universal prescriptive definitions of it that you, you know, wouldn’t be making such easily falsifiable statements. 🤷♂️
@@MasterShake9000 I didn't coin this, it's an old adage.
You also misunderstood. Your "why" in your opening comment is a philosophical question. "Why do the tides come in" as in, what causes them, is a scientific question that can be answered through observation. "Why do the tides come in" as in, what purpose do the tides serve, is not.
9:41 I think the point of the "left-handedness is a sinful temptation" thing is to mock most religions' fixation on aspects that you have no control over being sinful. I could be wrong but that seemed to be relevant considering the origins of last-thursdayism.

regarding the phantom time thing, as an architecture student I learned a tiny bit about building typologies. We get these weird preconceptions about history, often forgetting there are huge overlaps in things we think are so far apart from each other. An example is how there was a 22 yr period where the fax machine and samurai existed at the same time. This can be applied to buildings too, many civilizations have copied roman design prinicples (they copied from the greeks and the greeks copied etc etc.)
Or how Samurai and anything existed at the same time. Japan was closed off af, man...
Not to mention the how advanced the Chinese were around the same time as the Romans and Greeks were just kind of coming up. Or how Cleopatra is closer to the inception of Apple then she is the building of the pyramids.
The horse and carriage was still the primary mode of transportation well after the existence of the airplane. I believe the automobile didn't become number one until the Model T had been around for a few years. This makes World War I pretty interesting...you had lancers on horseback while at the same time the Red Baron was flying through the air in an airplane. Heck, when the Germans invaded Poland at the onset of WWII over 20 years later, the Polish army still had cavalry on horseback.
@@digitalfootballer9032 The second part about the cavalry in Poland is an out of context myth... They were not lance riders... If anything they are whats called dragoners.... Infantry that gets around on horseback but fights like normal infantry in their area of deployment... Sort of like what's done nowadays with motorized infantry.... The formation in question uses traditional cavalry weapons for parade purposes.... that's where those out of context photos come from....
Example of way more recent era... A lot of US special forces rode horses in the mountains of Afghanistan. One would hardly call those troops cavalry.

Last Thursdayism reminds me of a slightly more extreme version of the same idea that I used to go around asking people about as a kid. It really was the exact same idea but instead of last Thursday I used "one second ago."
"What if all of your memories and everything from the past was just fabricated and implanted in your head, and your existence actually started one second ago?"
I always used to come up with weird ideas like that. When my friend and I were 17 we got really high, like too high, and started walking to town to hang out with our friends, and during the walk I told my friend "When you walk you're not actually moving. You stay in the exact same spot in space, and the entire planet is rotating beneath you to simulate movement." I guess it made him terribly disoriented because he continued walking, silently, for about 6 or 8 steps, stopped, bent forward and started dry heaving. It was one of the funniest things I had ever seen.
Thanks for reminding me what a weird kid I was lol.

it’s when you hear statements like ‘it was a low speed collision - 10,000 kph’ that you remember how bleeding massive space is
That damn alarm just woke up all my dogs....now I have to take them for a W-A-L-K
When you're so afraid of saying the W-word that you don't even type it as one word. Yup, sounds about right to me.
When he said "This whole video deserves a woo woo alarm", I didn't expect that the whole video is just a woo woo alarm 😁
I was afraid my neighbors were going to start knocking on my door
Someone had to do it
I know. It's strange to see someone that is honest.
I was not expecting it to go on as long as it did so I didn't lower my volume. 😳😂
Sylvester II LOL, thanks for that image. You are great
"To those of you who believe the earth is hollow, I say to you, 'go grab a shovel. The truth... is down there' *suggestive look*" I just laughed very loudly 🤣
My cat just informed me she is *not* a fan of the Woo Woo Alarm, as evidenced by claw marks on my upper leg, where she was sitting when it went off.
I’ve always gauged the woo-woo level as being directly proportional to the runtime of the alarm. As such, I cackled.
I need to remember to cackle once in a while myself........its just healthy! :D
@@ryanthorn5574 absolutely! Only ever cackle in excitement and delight though.
@@elizabethbeierle7464
And after committing nefarious deeds! 😈😈
@@ryanthorn5574 lol
Sounds hot
Now that is one hell of a woo woo alarm. Maybe one woo would have sufficed
Laying in bed ready to sleep, I thought I could make it through the woo woo alarm. Lol it just kept going
The year 2020 never happened either, it was just a bad dream we all shared on Dec 31 2019
2021 is in my case worse. The nufgtnare I have been through awful times. This year... well, I will not write anything else. I do not know how to live on.
@@winterweib Yeah, thank god it is not 1914, or 1939, as the next five years sucked and millions died, and economies sucked for the next ten years, and whole towns got bombed out of existence. So you couldn't leave the house to get a coffee? That's just... pathetic.
@@winterweib keep strong friend.💪👍
@@danekeating5224 You have no idea what happened to the other person that made their year bad.
In case you forgot, A LOT of people died. Those people had families. My mother had a cousin whose ENTIRE family died. 3 generations of people within a month. I know they aren't the only ones like that.
Not to mention all the people that lost jobs, homes, vehicles AND all the people that are barely hanging on and are about to lose everything.
You should try a little compassion or empathy every once in a while. It only hurts if/when you realize just how uncompassionate you've been to other people.
@@winterweib I'm sorry you are having a difficult year. I sincerely hope you find the will to continue living. Things can improve.
When I was really little (3-7), I used to escape into this carebear like dream world in my sleep. It was so cool. There was magic and stuff. It was like amazing. I used to do this pretty much every night and just continue my life in this dream from where I left off last time. Those were the days.
I am 25 and still occasionally do this 🤣
I've had lucid dreams where I feel like I'm in the dream for months or sometimes even YEARS and wake up to find I've been there for like two-hours. And I'll often pick up the same thread later on when I go back to sleep and go to some other world. I really do sometimes question how my brain can possibly stuff that much information into such a short period, I know it sounds ridiculous to suggest you might actually be going somewhere in your dream but like...how the hell does your brain vividly remember years of content that somehow happened in a couple dozen minutes?
@@Goldenkitten1 yes exactly! I’ve had dreams where I pretty much live out my life… the craziest that used to happen and still does sometimes is where I can pick up where I left off the next night or even months later
@@boleebo2925 Yeah it's honestly a little disheartening or anxiety inducing when you wake up at times. You literally feel like you've just been pulled out of another life. Not a big deal all the time or especially if you're having a nightmare but there have been times where I feel like I've developed legitimate friendships and relationships with people there having been stuck there for an extended time and then I wake up and you have to stop for a second and sort of come to terms with "Wait, they were all dreams? Holy crap I need a minute". I've legit refused to go back to sleep sometimes because I'll be genuinely depressed immediately after waking up just sort of shocked that I was basically just ripped out of a different life back into another one.
Care bear are for the nerds XD
Woo woo is blaring rent free in my head now
The problem with observing if the universe is a neural network is that first you have to have a neural network that is capable without a doubt of understanding the concept of a neural network. If it isn't capable of understanding the concept then said network could walk right by and be missed.
I cracked at the "Sylvester the 2nd" painting, with Stalones face. :P 12:50
edit: The count has been summoned!! I love the Easter eggs! on this video :D is it because we actually approaching Easter? :P Anyway, that was super fun!
She claims that Fox men were politicians but every politician I’ve ever met was a snake
Should have been the pigmen
@@jr2904 aren't they busy with, um, enforcement?
...but not every politician is.
that's offensive. To snakes, that is.
@@istvansipos9940 +1 Snakes with wings are majestic dragons. Politicians with wings got the jet through malfeasance.
"...to establish the date of Easter."
Then why is it a different date every year???
we fall asleep watching Joe's videos and this has been the bane of my existent every few nights for the last couple weeks
brilliant execution of the Family Guy theorem that states that if something is funny for 10 seconds, it's not funny for 20 seconds, but it's SUPER funny for 60 seconds
"Ladies and gentlemen, mr Conway twitty!"
Mmm boppa mm ma mow mow...
And this too: th-cam.com/video/2WZLJpMOxS4/w-d-xo.html
yeah really great idea, made me not further watch the whole thing...and prolly wont in the future.
Family guy is the lowest bar of humor
I just want to commend your courageous choice to play the woo woo alarm long enough to go frome cute through the annoying and then anger inducing zones to reach the actually funny spot.
I think im the insane one here, cuz i want that alarm EVERY video! 😎😎😎
No that alarm was dum and it ran too long to be funny or entertaining or whatever
@@keyslonsimon4571 sorry but it was HILARIOUS
@@keyslonsimon4571
I think that alarm length was just right! And based on the mind blowing material he discussed, I think it was justified. But thats just me! I liked it!
More woo woo!!!!!
@mike O’Barr You summed up all the emotions I felt, seconds after each other haha
I am listening AT WORK and he's just letting that Woo Woo Alarm go off. 😆
When I was like 4 I remember staring out my window and getting hit with this sudden and weird feeling that everything I’d experienced was a dream and when we die we just wake up as babies again, like consciousness is a detached, overseeing state in which we control our bodies outside of ourselves, and it only shifts to new physical bodies upon the death of the previous physical body.
If a weird Englishman steps out of a blue police call box in front of you after one of these stories has been 'proven true', then you know something has gone belly up somewhere in a bad way.
or something has gone _really_ *REALLY* right. hard to tell with the Doctor
i lve the last thursday one simply because a lot of what might be used to discredit it, can also be used against any timelime someone conjurs out of their butt
If I ever see that, I'm gonna run like he**. Where the Doctor goes, there's always trouble.
@@jayfredrickson8632 Running is one of the main signs that the Doctor is involved.
@@jayfredrickson8632 Step one: Ask The Doctor which direction you should be running. You wouldn't want to get that wrong.
knowing Joe enjoys RLM is just lovely. Real recognizes real!
...these complete strangers you've never met sure are real
I like the joke about the song Creep, I was literally thinking about that song when you said Kreep
As a dog trainer, the Longest Woo Segment is a great desensitizing tool for ur new puppy 😂😂
Number 6: Joe is a god figure and makes the videos to help us understand the world he created for us.....
The last theory is actually pretty cool. I like the thought of being a brain inside of a brain! Do I have a space structure in my brain, meaning little organisms with brains of their own exist? I hope so LOL.
yeah, ever watched simpsons. They had a counch gag based on it, like decades ago
I mean if you ever create little daydreams then it kinda makes sense
I'm literally watching this episode on a Thursday 🤣🤣🤣
I did it you talk me into it I signed up for curiosity. Absolutely amazing I recommend everybody do it
Congratulations. Your reintroduction of the woo woo alarm had me both smile in silly (and probably misplaced) nostalgia and called my flat mate to my room as he wondered what type of alarm was going on. That being said, you won a second view on your video for that.
The Universe is just a giant brain might be woo woo but I kinda like it. Okay, I'm lying: I love it.
it looks like it so why not, I like it too
It fits in a lot of ways too. A big huge beingd time would be almost impossibly slow relative to us and our size....so maybe size and gravity are doing more than we can observe yet. I dunno....just babblin'
@Rusto Of all the ways you could have used your very large, superior intellect, *that's* what you chose; cruelty and rudeness?
There's actually a scientific version of the idea that all of reality itself is to some degree "conscious" that's actually falsifiable.
@@sock2828 Even as a thought experiment, I adore this. Einstein is attributed as saying "I want to know God's thoughts" and with this and similar theories, the response seems to be that literally, "we are". Being falsifiable gives the theory some scientific credence, and I really appreciate your response with that, because you've given me a few internet rabbit holes to wander!
I kinda like the idea that the whole universe evolved and slowly got better and better at making observers. No idea how to disprove it, but it sounds nice.
That last theory, where the Universe is a giant neural network? It's true. Reality began as you all know it when I fell asleep last Thursday, and everything that you believe to know will come undone when my alarm clock awakens me next Thursday.
