Default All Stillness is Relative

Not all motion. All stillness.

Everything is in motion through space. Einstein: There is no absolute
rest.

Things move through space together and experience a relative stillness
but they are still moving.

Didn't young Einstein split a beer atom once while sitting in his outhouse?
As I remember it, things were not very still for very long.
