i was just thinking about the universe today and how we know roughly how old the universe is and what it would be like before there was anything and how that even works or makes sense and what if there was just nothing at all in general and there was no life, objects, etc anywhere just nothing at all and how to contemplate that and i think my brain short-circuited like my mind was literally blown and i decided not to think about it anymore.

Well time is merely a function of the universe moving so before the universe there was no time. So there is no before the universe.

Blows my fucking mind.

i was envisioning it as white space for some reason and then i was thinking well it's not even space then if there isn't even anything there and that's about where my mind exploded.

"I think my eyes are getting better. Instead
of a big dark blur, I see a big light blur.

There's nothing to see. I used to live here,
you know.

You're gonna die here, you know. Convenient."

that seems doubtful. although i suppose all that time that i didn't exist before i was born can't be characterized as unpleasant and death will be a return to that so it could be worse.

yeah, it'd be cool just to understand it. i'm pissed that we'll never be able to travel to other planets and galaxies pretty much ever much less in our lifetime. seeing star wars as a kid made me excited for that and in my 5 year old logic figured it'd be doable by the time i grew up.
