Giving no fucks is the natural state of the universe. One of the human superpowers is we give the most fucks, or we can give fucks about a lot of people, though even hundreds is stretching that limit.

It's one of the things we need to get over is that whether we as a species live or die, colonize the stars or go extinct in a century or less, not only will the universe not notice, but it won't care. It's up to us to care or not.

That said, we humans are cruel bastards, so yes, I appreciate the impetus to minimize the fucks you give.
