 Nah, information is as fundamental as energy and time in this world.

Energy & time are basically everything, but without a language to describe them, they're moot; information is that language.  All 3 physically affect each other, which seriously makes things difficult to understand.

 You just want to go straight to all of us cosmically communicating? Maybe we start with getting everyone to dream walk first.

 Verbal communication is "cosmic communication", a tiny subset of it, and even then, human to human, people still tend to ignore what they don't like hearing.

The idea "Fuck Information" really demonstrates how willfully ignorant humans can be.

 Good point. 🙏

Since humans have pieces of the same stardust within us, I’d hope it would be enough to prove to humanity we are one part of the same energy. 

Many times I find humans are lost in translation for various reasons. I’ve been guilty of not always being empathetic. Allowing anything to take my peace & love is on me. Definitely will push to never allow that again. 🙏
