Look up on a clear moonless night, you’ll see maybe up to ten thousand stars. And you’re more important than any of them. They’re nothing more than what they look like, enormous balls of plasma, but you’re a conscious being with intrinsic moral worth.
I haven’t been doing a lot of complimenting people’s physical attributes in this meme, but for you I’ll make an exception. The jar your brain lives in is an incredibly complex and useful machine unmatched by anything humans can yet design. Compared to most possible people, who are Boltzmann brains, you’ve basically got superpowers.
Actually, scratch that. You’ve literally got superpowers. You can look at an outside world made entirely of math and physics, and tell inanimate objects what to do. And to you it’ll seem trivial, as mundane and boring as picking up a rock, but of course it would seem that way to you. You’re so used to the epiphenomenal cosmic power of free will that being able to tell gravity “nope” is just a background assumption.
Since that’s not enough, you also happen to be one of the most intelligent known beings to have ever existed. Honestly at this point I’m just hoping you use your powers for good.
Last thing, and I realize it might be a little bit blasphemous but speaking about you this is totally true: YOU ARE.
You are the best person to call in for the following apocalypses: Well, without knowing who you are I can’t answer this one. But right this minute you’re the person standing between half the universe and…actually, stand up for a minute? Now you’re standing between half the universe and the other half.
