    Gravity indeed. But the “or some shit” also includes surface tension (soap bubbles) and the second law of thermodynamics.https://twitter.com/michaelianblack/status/934803054955782148 …

        Too much science - let's just go with a flat earth in a universe that was made in six (literal) days by an all knowing deity. Much easier.

        And, as we all know, the second law of thermodynamics is, nobody talks about thermodynamics... Sorry, couldn't resist.

        I thought it was that thermodynamics must obey the orders given by humans unless the orders conflicted with the first law of thermodynamics.

        Actually, I misspoke. My tweet should have read "If the thermodynamics dungeon master is ever wrong, please see the first law of thermodynamics".

        RE: #Astophysics for People In a Hurry, Ch 8 of 12: how #PhysicalLaws favor spheres in the universe. Great response by Neil deGrasse Tyson to bring derailed thread back up to the elevated tracks, as for the 'El' in Chicago. Anytime #NeildeGrasseTyson talks, I stop to listen.
