The universe is dusty because the Big Dipper used to be the big swiffer but the replacement pads for galaxy sized broom heads are 13 septillion dollars so we’ve been saving up for a few billion years now

Aren't we just a complicated amalgamation of star dust that aimlessly wander through the universe, happened to settle on our planet, cool down enough and assemble themselves into the idiot that is reading this meme and writing this comment?

"we are made of stardust" is such an incredibly materialistic worldview

why not say instead "we are made of consciousness"?
