I don't think it matters if we exist or not, because the same rules would apply. And at that point, we're just arguing semantics. If we were somehow able to test our existence, and find that nothing is real, we'd just rename it, and keep studying the cosmos with our unchanged rules of fake-ality.

Side note: Alfred Korzybski is my jam. The Manhood of Humanity is a great, if not a little premature/optimistic, post-WWI examination of the nature of humanity. Dishes a few religious digs, while he's at it, too.

I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
