Is this world and our existance just some kind of sitcom or a tv soap for some form of higher being or aliens?

It certainly makes no sense in any other way.

So smile and be aware that you may be on camera for the higher being, or the aliens or possibly even our more developed future humans or perhaps entertainment for computers of the future.

Afterall all, all of these possibilities need entertaining if they do exist.

The entire universe is in fact kept inside a sealed tin, I'm just dreading the moment the lid is popped off.

They're trying to pop the lid with the Large Hadron Collider, but it keeps changing reality so the top can't come off....

Nature abhors a Higgs so much, it travels back in time to stop it...



As to the nature of reality, one view is that we are the 'higher beings', but have involuted down into Maya and ignorance 'for the lulz', or to grow and experience finitude...

Kama

Ironically for 'expanding your horizons', this view of involution requires a narrowing and 'crippling' process of being-thrown into dumb matter and ignorance, as a perfected Oversoul/God/whatever isn't learning or growing. All very Taoist/Deconstructive/whatever: constaint as the prerequisite for freedom, ignorance for learning, amnesia for anamnesis

Grant Morrison expounds this view in his classic Disinfo spiel, that space-time exists to grow larvae, and we are that larva. Ken Wilber does something similar, working off the thought of Sri Aurobindo among others, or Bill Hicks with 'it's just a ride'.

Food for thought and funs, whatever the actuality is...

How do you know you're not a Japanese teenager in an arcade in the year 2450 playing a game called 'Life in the 21st century'.

I liked Dresden Codaks take on this eternal question of Life, the Pseudo-Universe, and Everything...

we're the forgotten planet probably in the grand sceme of things we're like a speck of dust in terms of how important we are in the universe.
This planet is trash and looked on like that by the higher beings/gods.
We're not supposed to kill and hate each other,pollute etc the way we do.
