Let's settle this shit once and for all.
Whats the smallest building block of the universe?

Quarks, in all their yummy flavours!

proof it :^)
preons or strings

Photons
amoeba are reeeeaaaally small

People act like quarks were proven to exist, but they are essentially accepted due to their explanatory power and elegance. Although I personally always thought gluons were strange.
I think if we use similar reasoning, other less popular models can be reasonably justified.
Electron or proton which ever is smaller

i don't know because i am a brainlet, therefore i am to say it's one of these imaginary things, all of which i visualize in my brain as non-physical:
strings
energy
foam
dark matter

Is she becoming one with kek(e) just as I have done?
A mind knowing of it's existence, without that all the rest technically won't exist.

I would argue that as the ability to measure smaller areas of reality increases, we will always find smaller "particles". However at the moment, I would go so far as to say that whatever quantum elements comprise quantum wave fluctuations in a vacuum, that right there might be where one would find your smallest particle.
Also if you subscribe to string theory, whatever comprises strings might be your smallest particle.

you mean like
atoms, light, radio waves, electrons, gravity, weak force, higgs field, molecules, wind, cells, brain processes, combustion, blood, sound, solubility, friction, water, currents, fish, animals, limbs, eyes, tastebuds, porn, reproduction, babies, radios, checkbooks brocolli, soap, sponges, perfume,v books, chairs, flowers, clocks, fridges, tomatos, tooth picks, bottle caps, computers, pillows, thermometers, toe rings, coasters, soy sauce packet...
energy is the answer btw. energy and matter can convert into each other.
gluons
