functional nihilism and comedy
we are so alone, so young and so isolated
alone: the universe is vast but almost empty of life, let alone intelligent life
young: The first Homo sapiens appear in the final single second of the 12-hour “universal day” (if you compress the universe’s age into 12 hours)
isolated: we can’t communicate with the simulators, with other simulations, or with other universes in the multiverse
among the very few reasonable responses are suicide, existential angst, denial and laughter. i recommend choosing laughter, hence, comedy
