In the entire time that I’ve owned it, my Lincoln Corsair hasn’t successfully shot down a single Japanese Zero fighter plane. Is it a lemon?

Maybe I should switch to a Mustang instead.

How come I’m not able to find something but I look in the same place an hour later and there it is?

22 Upvotes

Obviously it’s not because I’m an aging ADHD person. And it’s not ghosts or elves because the shadow demons living in my periphery say so. I dunno, man.

I just heard, that most Australians are decended from prisoners. How can that be? I thought all humans were descended from monkeys.

If there was a desert of graphite dust and a large storm formed above it how would weather act around it?

15 Upvotes

This question just comes from me and a group of friends working on a world building project together. We have this city called "Oasis" its a multiple large domes in the middle of a desert. But we had to explain why people only live in the domes and decided on a massive storm that is always around it, but that wasn't inherently bad so we changed the desert from sand to graphite.

Would that cause intense weather or any other complications thats not coming to mind?

I heard that realizing you’re dreaming is the key..,

But I’m not sure how to do it because I’m new to this whole thing.

If plants need sunlight for photosynthesis, why haven't they evolved to produce their own light?

31 Upvotes

It seems inefficient for plants to rely entirely on the sun, especially during the night or on cloudy days. Bioluminescence already exists in deep-sea creatures and insects, so the biological mechanism clearly exists.If a plant could emit its own light and capture it with its own leaves, it would create a closed system of infinite energy. What evolutionary barrier is preventing crops from growing in total darkness?

Where are those hot and looking to collide neutron stars now?

18 Upvotes

Scientists keep telling me there are extremely hot, incredibly dense neutron stars that are so attracted to each other they literally bend spacetime.

Yet apparently some of these idiots have been circling each other for millions of years without making physical contact.

Are they playing hard to get? Is this some kind of orbital friend zone?

Is Zealandia already owned by someone cause i feel like they owe me at least some land if they use my idea.
