A few Questions about Earths Orbital Speed Around the Sun.
Mass-energy curves spacetime, which causes freefall in objects in free space. Force of gravity is the resistance one feels when our own curved freefall path (geodesic) is inhibited by a more massive object we are attached to i.e. Earth. Spacetime is the 3 dimensions plus time. It is a mathematically-described geometric platform with spatial and temporal co-ordinates scientists use to describe and track events* in space and time. *From Wiki: In physics, and in particular relativity, an event is the instantaneous physical situation or occurrence associated with a point in spacetime (that is, a specific place and time). For example, a glass breaking on the floor is an event; it occurs at a unique place and a unique time.

It's a good job he's not doing it now. Sounds like a purely political stab with no justification... cheap shot.- Homophobia, nature or nurture?
What I find ironic, given the disgust, is that many heterosexual people engage in 'unnatural' sexual practices not unlike LGBTQs. I think they call that 'hypocrisy'. The simple solution is to not think about it. There is much I would not do, but if two or more consenting people wish to do such filthy things, I'm not going to judge.... time for golden shower.....- Calculating the reaction energy in a Lithium Iron Phosphate battery
I'll @Kerrowman as that should send them a note you have responded, if they have notifications enabled..- Kardashian 'Lemme' vaginal gummies: A new assault on womens self-perception?
This marketing reminds me of past marketing campaigns targeting peoples insecurities about their social acceptability potential, like deodorant campaigns. The difference I think this time is that scientifically-naive women will cause themselves real harm following this particular campaign because to me it's a new frontier that the idiot is pursuing for personal enrichment. I can see allied products coming in future in a trend that wil cause tangible, long term adverse effects to their bodily function... the thin end of a commercially-motivated insidious wedge. I think goverment agencies should come down hard on this quack science. The first adverse effects could well be altering pH outside of its protective functional range to precipitate population booms of pathogenic organisms, which are always there, but are suppressed by larger popuations of Lactobacillus spp etc I've used this Mirror article purely because it came up first and I think it reasonably presents the issue.- Theories on quantum geometry and entropy
For your reassurance that you are not being singled out, have a look at this niggling thread between members who are pretty well versed in physics matters:- What are you listening to right now?
Apparently, reading YT comments, Satie hated peope stopping what they were doing to listen to this. He intended it as Muzak or wallpaper music. I think it too irregular a pace with some dynamics to be muzak.- What are you listening to right now?
It might be bagpipe soundsthat are earworms for me:- What are you listening to right now?

Right. Adverse and malign social engineering.- "The Balloon !"

It seems plausible to me. Countermeasures can be learned and applied. The adversary would then be using a lemon, completely unaware.- "The Balloon !"
Perhaps, in general, governments like to keep this sort of stuff under wraps, so they cn exploit these things geopolitically... stuff like equipment secrets they discover and don't want their adversary to know they know. The balloon we saw was perhaps too blatant to apply the usual protocols of secrecy and so they had to talk about it and react publicly.- Is tongue rolling purely genetic?
It's not expressed in both identical twins all the time. I think that supports that position: incomplete..- "The Balloon !"

Yes, splitting would be appropriate if the mods agree. By design or consequence, the Zionist aspirations mirror Aryanism and Apartheid.- Comments on Political Humor (split from Political Humor)
Aliens moved into Palestine after 1947 with our assistance and then proceeded to suppress the natives so that they can act out a spurious dystopian societal fantasy depicted by a book.- The Official JOKES SECTION :)
JC has not shown one hint of racism. He's explained what he meant. If people want to hold him to another interpretation that's their issue. - "The Balloon !"
