I'm familiar with a lot of theological arguments for why it's totally not bizarre that God can just pop into existence or exist for eternity, but the universe can't. None of them offer an explanation that works. They can't. It's literally a logical impossibility.

Then you're not familiar with those arguments.
I'm familiar with Aquinas' Five Ways and Descartes' ontological argument. I'm familiar with the Kalam Cosmological Argument. None of those do it. Are you thinking of something else that isn't covered by those?
