if you take into account how the earth is moving all the time then the water isn’t actually going anywhere, its all just stationary while the earth moves every object around the water as necessary.

This energy: You have to relax

I couldn't decide; maybe Forehead oilstar, or My hands are knives. But probably mostly "Relax."

What?!?

IDK have you never thought before?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I do think every second im conscious but such a though never crossed my mind in my entire life. That's because i know how gravity works.

but do you know how ShowerThoughts work

[–] [email protected] 11 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, but shower thoughs are usually not something that is unbelievably stupid and so wrong that even a first grader or kindergarden child would not think such a thing.

Like, how did you even begin to think that? This didn't start in the shower, there was something wrong before the shower.

No offense but, have you seen two different water streams going in two different directions? Do you know earth is a globe?

let me level with you since you’re not getting it—yes, the posts in this community are generally unbelievably stupid. that is why I posted this. because this community is full of incomprehensibly stupid posts all hours of the day and I figured I’d do a bit of good old fashion shitposting.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Is it really a shitpost or did you actually think that, i couldn't make such a thing up even for a shitpost 🤨

Guess you’re just not that creative.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago

Why isn't the water moving with the earth?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

This post have this energy:

The more i think about it, even though it's technically incorrect, i know what you mean lol. Yet it only works on the northern hemisphere, on southern hemisphere the water goes up the drain.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

?? understood you till then end, you know north isnt actually the top?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago

Ohh sorry, i messed up what direction earth is moving in.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 13 hours ago

I can’t believe you’d agree with OP that itsy bitsy water goes up the spider spout.
