Nature does not abhor a vacuum. 99.9999999999999999999958% of the Universe is empty.
The rest is old boots and stars and tea stains and you. But atoms are also 99.9999999996% empty.
Everything is mostly nothing really. Looking at it that way, it’s easy to justify eating an entire tub of ice cream.
The Nothing is what fills the emptiness. The Nothing is something. The Nothing grows the more you think about it. And space is expanding. So, there is even more Nothing than there is anything.
With the universe mostly empty, and also it abhorring a vacuum, that feels like a lot of self-loathing. Could explain some of its destructive behaviour. We should give the universe all our empathy and let it know we love it just as it is. It is enough.
Most of what we experience as volume is the particle we don’t even bother talking about the mass of, so am I really gaining weight when I house a Hardee’s burger?
I like how you think!
Can’t quite follow the logic if it, but U ended up in the right place.
I’m like a math teacher who doesn’t want you to show your work, as long as you get the right answer & as long as that answer is a tub of (today:) pink peppermint ice cream, smothered in hot fudge sauce..:
A friend in physics once told me this. I said, "So you pile up enough nothing and you get something? This philosophy must have been invented by an American." He admitted I had a point. So onward with the tub of ice cream.
