There's a million, billion, trillion stars but I'm down here low; fussin' over scars on my soul.

And they say it started with a big bang
But they say it came out of a small thing
Lately, I'm feeling like a big bang
'Cause I've been making something out of nothing
(Like my soul)
✯ Infinitesimal, Mother Mother

Logan said infinitesimal in a video!
I always assumed it was a joke, something that supposedly happened off screen.
But I was rewatching Losing My Motivation while writing another theory, and he said it right there.
"Preposterous! There's an infinitesimal amount of things in this bizarre massive universe brimming with exciting mysteries and you don't really know what to talk about?"
Am I the only one who didn't realize that?

It's kind of hard to look at pictures of space and planets. Like, you look at them and immediately realise how far away they are- and how tiny we are. How infinitesimal. Unimportant. It just hits you, the way asteroids hit the moon's surface and leave those craters. Everything is so much bigger than you, than us, and we are only a tiny part of everything- a tiny group of cells creating havoc of every kind on this rock hurtling through infinite space with a trillion, gazillion other rocks and probably other tiny group of cells.
It's so humbling.
