Comment on Is there a "canvas" of the universe? Do we even know? Would a canvas follow the same laws as the paint?

  I don’t know. It’s seemed fine to me. :)

  What’s simple to some people may not be as simple to others. That’s why this community exists.

    This is more like a question someone who ate too many pot brownies asks. It’s not deep.

      The question hits on some of the most fundamental aspects of our current understanding of reality and theoretical physics. As another commenter pointed out, one potential answer delves into QFT. Just because OP used a metaphor doesn’t warrant you saying they had “too many pot brownies” and there’s absolutely no need to be a condescending jerk here.

        I agree completely. As someone who’s fascinated with cosmology, I think this is a perfectly reasonable question and a perfect fit for this community.

  There may not be stupid questions but there are stupid comments.
