Reality Doubles as Itself - Ostronomos - Jul 12, 2018
Every set is a subset of the universal set:
A ⊆ U.
Reality is the subset as well as the powerset of itself:
R ⊆ R(S).
So we see that reality requires two senses of containment in order to perfectly contain itself - descriptive and topological. This resolves its paradoxical situation through simultaneous dual self-containment.
