Seriously, how many people need the reminder that the world--loosely couched as 'the universe'--doesn't give a fuck about them? There's evidence all around us, every day, of the multitude of ways that our lives don't matter, from the neighbor down the street to the local government, to the corporations, to the U.
Isn't that what the "Black Lives Matter" movement is about? Reminding people that they do matter, because they are used to not having anyone give a flying fuck about them?

This, like the universe's apathy, is neither good nor bad. It is simply a fact. It is also concise. There are no useless words or metaphors.
