What, are you crazy? Of course there will be cheese.

I can’t believe you would even ask me that

Amazing band, and lovely people too. I saw them in Bristol about 5-6 years ago, and met them after their show. I told them that I owe them my Computer Science degree since they’re basically my study playlist, and apparently they get that from fans often.

First band I ever saw live.

Still have the smarties they threw to the crowd after the last song.

Is there a word for this type of hypersimplification to evoke wonder? If not, can we coin one?

My suggestion: Simplificatio Adstupefaciendi - A simplification with the purpose to astonish.

On top of sounding cool it is already astonishing to remember and to be able to spell it!

The cosmos is within us. We are made of star stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself.

This Carl guy sounds pretty smart. Maybe he should study physics or something.

Maybe he should try his hand at teaching too, it seems like he’s got a unique skill for simplifying complicated concepts.

If he had a TV show, I bet it could reach many people and we might all learn from him.

I love the line “when an explosion explodes hard enough, dust wakes up and thinks about itself”

I’d condense the whole post down to:

The universe is an ongoing explosion. Sometimes the exploded dust becomes haunted.

That’s us.
