is it crazy that cold is the natural state of the universe?

well probably not that crazy, but i think is more when you think about the fact that , to put it veerrryyyy simply, heat is literally just a chemical reaction, like yeah a desert is hot, but thats only because of heat emitted by the sun, i know im saying alot of "well no shit" things, but for me at least , its crazy to think that warmth isnt a state of something that just....is....you can never ever get heat without a complex machine, which generally seems to consist of using kinetic energy/ motion or turning food into energy/warmth.

Yep I know what you mean. Without complex systems, heat doesn’t exist. And that’s weird.

I also always found it strange that living beings perceive coldness as a POSITIVE perception, when in reality it’s a NEGATIVE concept. Like, we perceive the LACK of molecular motion as a PROSPERITY of coldness.

@InvaderNice it makes me wonder if there are beings that exist in a heat free system. how dramatically their bodies would have to work compared to ours

@HeWhoLaughs You mean, like, SUPER hot blooded ones?
HeWhoLaughs · 26-30, M
@InvaderNice that or even a creature that neither absorbs nor emitts any heat, like something super sci fi
InvaderNice · 26-30, M
@HeWhoLaughs Ah so a creature that exists and behaves regardless of tempurature.

@InvaderNice sounds impossible but its a fascinating thought
InvaderNice · 26-30, M
@HeWhoLaughs It is.

Besides, what we see as impossible isn’t necessarily impossible.

@InvaderNice yeah well on a similar thought i just had, there are likely galaxies out there that are completely void of any life
InvaderNice · 26-30, M
@HeWhoLaughs Yep.

I can tell you’re really smart cause you’re passionate about these thoughts.
