A faster light speed wouldn't make a difference, since she made the universe 96 billion light years wide.
Something tells me this isn't a bad thing. If there is an edge of the universe, it's probably going to be a very strange place.
Indeed, but the way the math for expansion works is that there is something called a Hubble horizon and that makes it impossible to ever reach the edge, since it is moving away from us faster than light. (The limit doesn't apply to the expansion of space-time).
Quite a nifty solution by the Supreme Programmer to avoid us hitting the limits of the simulation. I couldn't have designed it better.
Well it was a more convincing solution than just having level crossing arms come down and an infinitely long train cross every time you get near the edge.

Hey I hear there’s a nice restaurant out there
Good thing there isn't one since we probably live in a donut.
I thought it was technically a three-dimensional donut shape progressing along a sort of 4D torus that we only exist on the "surface" of?
That's a common misconception. We actually live on the surface of a 3D bear claw progressing along a 4D cruller.
It's actually turtles all the way down.
Ah shit 🤯
Torus*
It does sort of feel like we're in the butthole of universes, doesn't it?
Stupid relative distance measurements ruining all our fun
Tell me all your thoughts on God 'cause I would really like to meet her
Disclaimer: To any higher power listening, I am not done living and do not want to meet God/a god immediately. There's still plenty of candy left in this piñata.

Defoeeee
You can't do this to me. I started this company. You know how much I sacrificed?!
