Death Map United States.
I saw something recently that pointed out that widespread cooking at home for city dwellers is a fairly recent development. People used to regularly go to street vendors or inns/pubs to eat. The infrastructure to cook in city dwellings, for anyone who’s not upper-crust, is more or less a 20th century development (i.e. having gas and/or electricity available)

Fascism is already here. Part of the problem is people framing this as something that might happen in the future. The fix starts with throwing the fascists out of office.

Death Map United States.
Why do you think that? How would seawater shorten lifespan? In addition, not everyone has ready access to perishables on a timely basis, and not everyone can do extensive food preparation. Doesn’t do any good to buy food that will rot before your next trip to the store, or something you can’t cook up.

Quantum Chorton Framework(QCF)
So G is smaller in intergalactic space. Seems like that would have testable consequences. With gravitational waves, for instance. But how does it get to be smaller there, but is bigger when mass is greater? Why wouldn’t it be different in regions with different amount of mass? It’s not like there’s no mass at all in intergalactic space. What’s the threshold that activates gravity? And…nearly constant? How did the small-G voids appear in the first place, if you start out with a more-or-less uniform distribution of mass and energy? Shouldn’t they all be activated? How do they de-activate? I don’t think it predicts that at all. If you didn’t know about the distribution beforehand, and that expansion was occurring, I’m not convinced it would pop out of the equations. It’s very ad-hoc in that regard.

VRT - a Pi based twist reality
This is a dealbreaker. We don’t allow AI material for this reason, and you have no basis for saying the idea is solid.

You do realize these two statements contradict each other, right? But it points to the reality that political parties change over time. The parties that existed in the early US were not the two major ones we have today - the early ones went extinct when they no longer appealed to the people. It remains to be seen if the republican party eventually crumbles to dust because of the rampant corruption and other flaws of Trumpism.

Quantum Chorton Framework(QCF)
There are lots of issues here. You don’t say where ω and Aχ come from, and you are using planck units, which are based on using G, so it’s hidden in there. But you have a much worse problem. A ramification if this is that G is not a constant. You’ve said you need a certain number of chortons in a set volume to get our value of G, and also that the number of chortons is constant, since they were created in the very early universe, before spacetime was created. But the universe was very small back then, and is expanding. So your chorton density, which determines G, must decrease over time. Every fix you make breaking something else is a sign that the idea is flawed. It doesn’t match against how the universe behaves, so it’s wrong. You have to accept that and move on. It’s disappointing to realize that, but it’s part of science, and happens to all scientists.

Right. IOW, when the law wasn't being followed, people were suing the government, not the president. I've seen people make comparison with “Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?” (Henry II talking about Becket) because there is no direct legal setbof orders, but the president’s wishes are being carried out (or they’re just doing what they want, as with some actions by Hegseth and Miller)

Unless you can derive the values of α, ω and Aχ without using G or anything that depends on it, it’s trivial. It shows there are no algebra mistakes (or if there are mistakes they cancel), because algebra is self-consistent

Calm Space Theory (CST): What if gravity is a ripple, not a force?
Moderator NoteOur rules require that material for discussion be posted, not uploaded or linked to. They also require that ideas be at a stage where you can make specific predictions as a way to test it. In physics, that’s a mathematical model. This fall well short of that. You’ve already gotten some feedback as to shortcoming of your idea, so a model would be moot. You are free to ask questions to expand your knowledge. As you can see, people are happy to engage.

No. I don’t think they considered that congress would be so corrupt. There were indications that republicans would have voted to impeach Nixon, which is why he resigned.

My symbolic scribble.
Speculations is not for rambling, or word association, or merely thinking out loud. We expect something reasonably finished, so you can present ways it can be compared to some experiment or observation. (this would include defining your terminology, which you haven’t done very well)

It’s not a revelation that you can “recover” G using a circular argument. It just means there is no algebra error as you rearrange the equations.

WHO CARES? HISTORY WILL MAKE JUDGEMENT.
And this is not the place for you to develop a theory. It’s not something the rules accommodate, and you don’t get special treatment. Plus, you don’t even see the contradiction here: you “know” that you’re right, but the idea hasn’t been developed. But if the idea hasn’t been developed and tested there is no way to know this!

A number of people say Trump is not listening to the courts?
No, it would have to be congress, via impeachment, as has already been explained. But the one the judge is ordering is not the president.

Parameters of Theory of everything.
And that’s the hubris. The fact that you resist correction makes this soapboxing, which is against the rules. We’re 8 pages and 11 months into this thread. I’d say you’ve had your opportunity to make your point.

The president isn’t being taken to court. So how would he be in contempt? Whoever is carrying out the president’s wishes - the head of the department of <whatever> - is doing something they can’t legally do. (Let’s say they are withhold funding from some grant or contract they’ve issued. The recipient sues and the court says they must be paid. But the government doesn’t pay anyway. The department head probably could be held in contempt. The president orders people to do something but it’s top-level/big picture - he isn’t directly involved in the smaller things. Not a lot of people work directly for the president, out of the ~3 million federal civilian employees and ~2 million military (and all the contractors above and beyond that)

I do wish you would put forth the effort to do a minimal familiarization with the topic before you jump in. People shouldn’t have to spoon-feed you US politics 101 and then explain the news. If you are going to be interested in US politics you have an obligation to be minimally informed if you want to participate. (no different from someone being interested in science needing to understand the basics)

Parameters of Theory of everything.
But your claim is that polarization and momentum are equal is clearly bogus, and if that ck=laim dorsn’t matter, anything built on it is dubious. A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds — Emerson Being consistent doesn’t matter if you’re wrong. But it’s not even clear what you’re being consistent with. Well, no. That’s the point. There is no way to get from one to the other. They are not equal. Why not? You don’t have to detect angular momentum. We’ve detected particles with zero angular momentum — the Higgs boson h=1? Is there any evidence of h having a value other than what we currently understand it to be? Doesn’t that require breaking rotational symmetry? But also: no. That’s not true. I can have two spin 1/2 particles and not have their total angular momentum be spin 1; it can also be spin 0. We see this in e.g. hydrogen. In alphas, we have 4 particles, but total spin is zero.

The moderator note applies to everyone who would contribute. Support with evidence, post it here. I especially want to see the peer-reviewed evidence of uneven expansion from BH formation.
