omg ahh sorry I’m dumb lmao sksksksks k-
um a fact:

  • In 2.3 billion years it will be too hot for life to exist on Earth
  • In an entire lifetime, the average person walks the equivalent of five times around the world :upside_down_face:

Added a tag!

  • The sound made when you crack your knuckles is because of the bubbles bursting from the synovial fluid (a viscous fluid necessary to lubricate joints).

Yes, because—if I remember correctly when I researched this earlier—they take about a quadrillion to form, and since the universe is still a few billion years old that would be impossible in this time.
