So these books are the reason I am the way I am?

That sounds super interesting! Can't read it until I get home (am on vacation at Disneyland right now) but in about a week's time I hope you don't mind if I reply with my updated understanding, and maybe a question or two.

I made a comment a while back (on my alt account) about how the origin of the universe can be expressed as a simple formula: https://sopuli.xyz/comment/3303086

So, I'm curious if that viewpoint will shift at all with a better understanding of electron positron interactions. It kind of makes sense to me that the universe and the antiverse are stacked on top of each other but with time pointing in opposite directions. But I'm sure I'm oversimplifying Feynman's theory and I'll have to read his reasoning to really understand.

Not in the current standard model, for sure. Or is there a reason empirically why they simply can't be.

For the people downvoting, may I hear a counterpoint as to why this wouldn't make sense?

This is actually the first time I'm hearing about single electron theory, but I feel validated now that I'm learning about it. I have for a long time believed that the universe is made of a single photon, since photons exist outside of time. Then, if electrons are made of a "pair" of entangled photons, since every photon is the same photon, it would follow that every electron is also the same electron. And one could assert that quarks are just entangled electrons and positrons in various ratios and combinations. Which in my mind leads to the conclusion that all of time and space and matter doesn't actually exist and we are just imaginary mathematical figments.

I feel so lucky with my cat. Would never dream of scratching me. Loves belly rubs. Most affectionate one in my life. If I ever pet him the wrong way he lets me know by giving me the gentlest "bite" basically just touching his teeth to my hand. I don't deserve him.

Check if it is Tuesday.

Certainly sounds like it. If you experience any intrusive acronyms like adc, cs, ks, ffs, or smh, it's advised that you quarantine outside the home and take minimum of two "touch grass" per day until symptoms improve.

Next step is interrogation

As a kid, I was at a snow park, getting towed up a hill in an inner tube. The tube was attached to a cyclical line with spaced out hooks, towing all the tubes to the top of the hill. But mine got unhooked when I was almost at the top and the tube flipped into its side, rolling sideways down the hill. I was still inside, holding into the handles, tumbling end over end but rotating too fast to fall out. The employees looked nervous when I reached the bottom of the hill, no doubt worried that I was injured and my parents would sue. But I just got up and went to the back of the line to go back up to the top.
