There is a simulated universe inside my head. You are all there.

But is every atom simulated in there?
If we held you in a room, connect your brain to a thingy and use your full brain capacity and power to simulate an isolated environment, would the outcome in 5 years for example be accurate?
It can't in our brains bcz we perceive what's going on but don't perceive everything around us(physical laws, molecules). Our brain works on very little data, not enough to simulate, but just to perceive and make simple predictions.
Truth is, every molecule is a factor in our universe.

You make an assumption that all of those molecules are actually real. I make no such assumptions.
