  • Came here to say exactly this tbh. Apply analytical math to Earth sphere and discover 2 opposite hemispheres rotating in opposite directions - equal to a ZERO value existence. In other words, 4 Earth Quadrants simultaneously rotate inside 4 Time Cube Quarters to create 4 - 24 hour days within one Earth rotation.





  • The HDM series is pretty good, but it still doesn’t compare to the books. When they found Billy at the end of Northern Lights, that genuinely broke me. In the series it’s more scary research center, action scene, we’re making a rift now. It doesn’t make you feel the horror that Lyra feels when she finds out what they’re actually doing, what even trusted adults are okay with.

    Like I said, royals aren’t normal people. See the fabled family tree of the Ptolemaic dynasty:

    But that only works if you have a family fortune to protect. Normal people would rather spread their children around and increase their chances of survival.

    Yeah, I can see that.

    But seriously, how much “incest” does the average family tree really have? And I’m drawing the line at great-grandparents, anything less than that is unrelated imo.

    Royals were doing multiple generations of first-degree incest, that’s on a completely different level from normal people.


  • Viscount Rothermere

    Had to look up if that’s someone’s name or what. It’s Harold Hamsworth, owner and founder of the Daily Mail and unapologetic racist, elitist, nazi piece of shit.

    It’s crazy to me that people like this were still allowed to own newspapers after the war. You don’t have to put them against the wall, but you can at least take away their power.


  • The meteor was, according to NASA, about 2 feet across and weighed 1000 pounds. So their baby elephants are on the lighter side and their corgis are fairly normal size.

    I’m going to assume a sphere, 60 centimeters in diameter, and a weight of 450 kg. Volume of the sphere is 113000cm3, which gives us a density of 3,9g/cm3. That’s heavier than most rocks (silicon at 2.3), but much lighter than iron (7.9).
