My twitter conversation with Dan Harmon, the creator of Community:
@amnesiac_cat: @danharmon I've been studying the multiverse theory and I don't know how something can be a "prime timeline". Aren't all timelines equal?
@danharmon: @amnesiac_cat in an infinite multiverse, the concept of a prime timeline would be purely subjective but important, like the word "home."
@amnesiac_cat: @danharmon that's my point. Instead of trying to get into the prime timeline, Abed would only be trying to get into a different one.
@amnesiac_cat: @danharmon On the other hand I can see how Abed would see that timeline as home. In that timeline everything stayed normal, how he likes it.
@danharmon: @amnesiac_cat yep. Logic says life makes sense but doesn't matter. Mythology says it matters but makes no sense. Consciousness is anxiety.
