every single day, the universe is actively trying its best to extinguish us unless we actively try to stop it

While the working class cheered, the elite executed a devastating scam: eliminating $1.2 million in corporate pollution costs led to thousands of premature deaths. The tax cuts offered a negligible $20/wk windfall, instantly negated by inflation and tariffs. Enforcement is a joke; fines for environmental crimes are often less than $1% of the profit saved. The poor paid the price in health and lost wages, while Making Aristocracy Great Again.

The unique human-dog relationship is a product of human-led evolution, beginning when ancient wolves were genetically molded into dogs by artificial selection over $25,000$ years. This process, sped up by the dog's short generation time, created extreme diversity (from wolf to Chihuahua). Today, the bond is expressed as family because modern safety (vaccines) removed historical constraints, allowing the shared oxytocin neurochemical loop—an evolved, biological reality—to fully affirm the dog as our closest, most devoted companion.

Ultimately, the science of the string and the fuzzball provides a framework for the intuition that many of us carry: that we are not isolated islands, but inextricably linked to a larger, eternal, and constantly self-renewing cosmic process.
