How do you rotate a cat? What does it imply? Because the first association in my mind was akin to rotating the tyres on a car, to even out the wear. And that must be wrong.

We will have to wait and see. And press matters against politians, if things start to go awry.

Why do you automatically discount your dad from being banged by the milk man as well?

Do they realize the EU is a foreign group of countries, with separate legislation and autonomous power?

I respect the point of view but it is your point of view, not mine.

I remember reading this article on how this group of flat earthers had pooled together to buy this incredibly expensive device, that had been laser calibrated. I think I recall being some sort of gyroscope that, if the planet was truly a sphere, would record on its inclination the degrees it would shift in order to maintain perfectly balance . The group had also did the math and they had reached a value that would be expected to be measured if the Earth was truly a sphere but it was immediatly rendered impossible because the device would never record such deviation as the Earth was flat.

Can you guess where this is going?

The device measured the exact figure the group had calculated. With no margin of error. And repeating the experiment only returned the exact same result. They had, by their own standard, reached proof the Earth was not flat.

Their conclusion?

The device had been sabotaged.

This is one of those subjects I've hard set very early in my life. No matter what, anything below or above two years of age is off limits.

Windows XP was the best OS ever. Then it was overtaken by any other alternative.

It's expected. Right now, it is becoming a safe space for political dissidence. As sentiment pools and gathers mass, things tend to get towards the polar opposites and revolt breeds more revolt. Anything less than total agreement is viewed sideways.
