@futurebird@sauropods.win This is literally the most interesting thing I can imagine. Spacetime is empty and all the "things" are just patterns woven into the shape of spacetime itself.
The theory is kinda primitive, very few people are working on it, and it is probably wrong, because it predicts an infinite number of particle generations, and our colliders have measured exactly three. So it can't be right.
…Unless a future particle collider someday finds a fourth generation. Then things get *interesting*.
