I always thought I would grow out of thinking about this concept, because it's something I want to say I initially conceptualized 10 or more years ago. That said, it's been fucking killing me to not dig into this again. Because of that, I wanted to write down my thoughts first, before I am influenced by whatever updates to the research have been done yet. Literally just as a personal bragging point to be like "I SWEAR I THOUGHT OF THAT BEFORE" but like, for all I know this is fucking dumb and flawed or already done or whatever.

All things have energy. In a literal sense this is known by way of e=mc^2 where all matter is just energy contained in a thing.
