That’s honestly just sad. Not the fact you doing it, but rather the fact you have nobody to talk to about those things.

I feel like this kind of response is a good example of why someone wouldn't talk to others about things.

When I say nerdy and/or obscure, I mean things like "are quantum fluctuations ergodic and how does this affect affect the probability of a quantum fluctuation triggering a new big bang?"

Call me weird, I know absolutely nothing about what you just wrote but I'm super intrigued now and would love to know more, ah. But that's just because I'm generally curious about pretty much everything.

But I can see why it can be hard to find people to talk about that. Heck it might be hard to find people who even know about that topic in general.

Not many people without at least a masters degree in physics know what "ergodic" means.

I can imagine. Well, in that case I hope 2026 will bring you some human connection that does have a masters in physics.
