Wow, yesterday was some roof stoof, wasn’t it? I guess I need to explain a bit
more. What you need to understand about the bulkverse is that some universes
can stand on their own, while others need some kind of oversight. It’s not
that every world that you can imagine can exist, but a lot of them can, and
the more reasonable ones tend to be stronger. For instance, there’s a movie
where I’m from where two Earths orbit each other so closely that you can
actually take an elevator up from one to the other, and depending on which one
you were born on, gravity remains the same for you, so if you travel to the
other one, you will fall up towards your homeworld if you’re not
careful. It’s super ridiculous, and practically impossible, and the universe
where that story took place only lasted for one hour and fifty-four minutes
before it imploded. Basically, the more normal things are, the safer you are
there. That sucks for them, yeah? Well, unfortunately, it also sucks for you,
because even though your planet doesn’t violate any reasonable laws of
physics, it is weird. It’s too dependent upon the historical context of
a different universe. I couldn’t tell you which one that was; maybe mine, but
either way, yours too lacks stability. You’ve obviously lasted a lot longer
than two hours, but that doesn’t mean you’ll last forever. It’s entirely
possible that literally none of you existed until I entered the brane. My
alternate self back on my homeworld may have conjured you up in that moment,
and automatically implanted memories in your fresh fake baby brains, which
make you believe that you’ve been around for years, even generations, or even
for billions of years. That doesn’t make it so, but it happens. It happens all
the time. It happens in dreams. I know it’s scary to think that this might be
the case, but as I said in my last post, that doesn’t make you any less real.
It’s all relative, and all in how you frame it. I long ago made peace with the
possibility that I was also conjured in this way, and that I could one day
blink out of existence. It didn’t change how I lived my life, because I
couldn’t do anything to change it, so if you look at it that way, you’ll be
all right. If you do happen to blink out of existence soon, you won’t be able
to experience any emotions on the matter. You won’t experience anything at
all. So you might as well just keep going. Me, I’m different, because I can
leave. And I must.
