Cosmology is among the oldest subjects to captivate our species. And it’s no wonder. We’re storytellers, and what could be more grand than the story of creation?

I’d say many features of string theory don’t mesh with what we observe in everyday life.

I can’t stand clutter. I can’t stand piles of stuff. And whenever I see it, I basically just throw the stuff away.

Assessing existence while failing to embrace the insights of modern physics would be like wrestling in the dark with an unknown opponent.
