It was all very brief but I discussed tree-rings, Sr/Ca in corals, and pollen.
Nice, amazon tree rings? Once I learned about Rayleigh distillation, and how it can influences with isotope ratios in tree rings as you move in land, my mind was melted as I realized all the tools we obviously have to understand how the climate has changed over time.
Don't mention tree rings around night owl though, I specifically remember being told that statistically significant data with n=1000's wasn't "science." I was so triggered.

Did you know that a trees age can be calculated by it's rings?
Whose the smart guy now? It's like... It's like... The guy who created shroomery and growery... no, wait. Bad example.

Until proven otherwise, I tend to think everyone is smart.
Thanks for the assist on that fam.
Did you know it;s rings are made due to periods of high and low growth rates?

First interstellar asteroid discovered.
I know this is a little late, but now they've actually got a little data on this thing.
Because of its extra-solar origin, it's orbit is hyperbolic (it's speed is beyond the escape velocity of the solar system). It is currently leaving the solar system at more than twice the speed of Voyager 1.
I'm super disappointed that they didn't get a chance to directly image it during closest approach to earth.

Erf is flat. We live in a dome. There's water above us. The sun and moon are in our dome and are closer then we think. We can't leave.

Hey, "data". I know you were looking forward to the homemade manned rocket launch today, but california just couldn't resist being california and told him he did not have the ok. Do not worry though, my son. He found some private property out on route 66 and is going to push to launch this tues.
I think the gov is scared that this guy is going to prove once and for all that the erf is flat.
20.00 says rocket boy dies from "natural causes" before tues.
House fire
Burglury
Mass shooting
Food poisoning
The gov needs to relax though. Not sure why their trippin. It's not like this launch will be successful.

I honestly had no idea that someone was attempting this. I don't see how launching himself 1800 ft up is going to prove anything though...since regular helium balloons can rise higher than that, elementary school kids have sent cameras up higher than 1800 ft. 
Besides, we all know that tha erf is 1,000,000 percent flat...its obvious dat shit a firmnamnmrmnment muhfukka

How do flat earthers explain the movement of shadows over time/with variable latitude?
Should i start finding locations to make measurements from so I have primary information?

This is not what this launch is about. We all know the earth is round and this guy is an idiot.
People did not donate money because they believe him. It's actually the opposite. People donated money so we can all watch a retard shoot himself up and explode.
It's like watching those beheading videos. You know it's going to be fucked up. You know how it's going to end... doesn't mean you're not going to watch it...

Should be spectacular.
Did I also hear that he's running for Governor of California?
Flat earther's make me giggle, they don't realize that it's actually much harder to adequately explain all observable phenomena using a flat earth model than with a spheroid earth model. Also none of them seem to understand how photography works, or that gasses and liquids do similar things to light, or the difference between velocity and acceleration...or anything in general except determined ignorance.

All of them are dumb ass shit and shouldn't be taken seriously. Like you said earlier, this is elementary education

Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism.
The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for A.A. membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. A.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy; neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.

I kinda thought he was, I thought I caught him crackin up at one point during the video...but you can never be sure with flat-earthers, he may have just been smiling about his next poopsnack...you know...cuz he cray

Yeah. You might be right, but what if... what if the earth is flat and the "science" you were taught in school was fake?

That's a good skeptical attitude, and I completely support that attitude towards a public education system, which is susceptible to turning into a brainwashing system for corrupt governments.
However, just like the erf guy says, there are many ways to go out and test the simple physical principles behind the scientific consensus on a spheroid earth model. Remember that people figured this problem out 400+ years ago, using fairly simple yet extremely clever experiments that can easily be reproduced by amateur skeptics.
I do not advocate blind faith in the sciences, but I also do not advocate blind faith in one's own ability to reason out astrophysics in a data vacuum.

You always gotta go and suck the fun out of everything. You're like the gym coach that was forced into teaching 2nd period math.
Boo, data. Boo on you.
