Idiot here. Is it proof that Fauci did 9/11 harbor to fake the flat moon landing on 5g vaccine autism with gay-hurricane-powered Jewish frog space lasers funded by Bill gates and George Soros?
If you’re not having a stroke right now, I must be.

First good laugh ive had in a bit. LOL
That should be a line in one of those comedy horror movies. “Oh God! He’s speaking Scottish! Run!”
The USS Enterprise drifted silently in the void. The warp core, normally humming like a gentle giant, pulsed erratically, casting an eerie red glow across the engineering deck. The ship had been through hell—again. Another battle, another crisis, another miracle demanded from its weary engineer.
Montgomery Scott sat in the dim light, his fingers tightening around a hyperspanner. His knuckles were white. His eyes, once twinkling with the joy of discovery, were sunken and dark.
“Push her harder, Scotty! Faster, Scotty! Save us all, Scotty!”
Decades of it. Day after day. Always fixing what the captain broke. Always asked to do the impossible. And he always did. Because he was Scotty.
But not anymore.
From the darkness, a voice crackled over the intercom. “Scotty, we need you on the bridge. The power fluctuations—”
The intercom went dead.
Scotty ran his fingers along the cold metal of the hyperspanner, his lips curling into a grim smile.
“Aye,” he muttered. “Time tae ease the strain.”
The first to go was Lieutenant Uhura. She had come down to engineering, concern in her eyes.
“Scotty, something’s wrong with internal communications. The system keeps—”
She gasped as something thick and metallic wrapped around her throat—one of the many cables hanging from the ceiling, repurposed for a darker function. Scotty pulled it tighter, his face close to hers, his breath hot against her ear.
“Dinnae worry, lass,” he whispered. “Yer voice has worked hard fer too long. Time tae ease the strain.”
She kicked, she clawed, but soon her struggles faded, and her lifeless body slumped to the floor.
McCoy and Spock came next, together. They’d noticed Uhura missing, of course. They’d come looking.
McCoy never even saw the hyperspanner coming. A single, well-placed blow shattered the doctor’s skull, leaving a crimson splash across the bulkhead.
Spock had a moment longer. He turned, raising an eyebrow. “Curious. You appear to be suffering from—”
The plasma torch in Scotty’s hand flared to life. Spock’s words were cut short by a scream—an unnatural, alien sound—as the torch met his flesh. He collapsed, his body twitching. Scotty knelt beside him, whispering in his ear as the Vulcan’s final breath shuddered out.
“Time tae ease the strain.”
Scotty let them run. He wanted them to run.
The corridors of the Enterprise were dark now, emergency lighting flickering as Scotty shut down systems one by one. The ship had become his hunting ground.
Sulu turned a corner, phaser raised—too slow. Scotty was already there, lurking in the shadows. A wrench came down on his wrist, sending the phaser clattering away. Another swing, and Sulu’s knee shattered. He collapsed, gasping in agony.
Chekov screamed and fled into the turbolift, slamming the controls. The doors hissed shut just as he caught a glimpse of Scotty’s face—grinning, waiting.
The turbolift never stopped. It climbed deck after deck, faster and faster, until the safety protocols failed, until the artificial gravity couldn’t compensate anymore.
Until it reached the top.
The doors slid open, and for a brief moment, Chekov had time to understand. Time to feel his stomach lurch. Time to fall.
From below, Scotty listened.
He never heard the landing.
The bridge was empty now. Only Captain Kirk remained.
He stood at the viewscreen, staring into the black. The ship was dead around him, but he had known for some time that it was more than that. His crew was gone. He was alone.
And yet, he wasn’t.
The turbolift doors hissed open. Slow, heavy footsteps followed.
Kirk turned.
Scotty stood in the doorway, covered in soot, in grease, in blood. The hyperspanner dangled from his fingers, dripping red. His eyes gleamed in the dim light.
Kirk exhaled. “Scotty… why?”
Scotty took a step forward.
“Ye always said ye needed just a little more power, Captain.”
Another step.
“Ye always said ye needed one more miracle.”
Another.
“Ye never thought tae ask what that cost.”
Kirk’s hand hovered over his phaser.
Scotty’s grin widened.
“Time tae ease the strain, Captain.”
The lights flickered one last time.
And the Enterprise fell silent.
One of the things I love most about Lemmy is how everything, no matter the context, becomes star trek in the end. It’s like that all evolution leads to crab meme, but in real life. All discussion becomes trek.
Excellent writing, btw! Love the story
We’re in agreement there.
Thank you!

If you can’t tell which person in your group is having a stroke right now, it’s probably you.
Being in a group is a terrible time to have a stroke.
jk jk unless…?
You can give me a stroke
Uh, it’s hurricane-powered gay Jewish frog-lasers. Hurricanes CAN’T be gay alright.
Hurricanes happen because of the gays. Get your shit together, people.
What’s everybody got against the Jewish Space Lasers? Rabbi Rabinowitz has been in charge of those lasers since 1998, and he’s been doing a damn fine job keeping the Martians and asteroids at bay! You know he’s only come down from Skylab II twice since he took the director’s position up there? You know what that much zero gravity does to a man? He’s been up there so long, he can’t come back anymore. He’s gonna die up there manning those lasers. That’s what Rabbi Rabinowitz has sacrificed for his country and planet! And the gall of some people, ranting about the Jewish space lasers. Are there Jewish space lasers? Yes! And they’ve been keeping your dumb ass safe from Martians and meteors for decades!
[In my head, I read this in Bernie Sander’s voice.]
Lol rabinowicz is Slavic for son of the rabbi so “rabbi rabinowitz” sounds like a character from a Bourekas comedy
Yeah, I’ve used the name before in a similar tale. It just really tickles me to think that there in fact ARE Jewish space lasers, and there’s a brave group of rabbis up on a space station keeping the planet safe from extraterrestrial threats. And “Rabbi Rabinowitz” is one of the most ridiculously over-the-top Jewish names I can think of. And instead of nefarious conspiracies, it’s very fun to just be like, “what do you have against the Jewish space lasers?! How dare you insult the good work of the great Rabbi Rabinowitz! You ungrateful bastard. He’s given his life to save you!!”
Maybe getting clowned on will snap them out of it. Regardless, love the bit. Long live rabbi rabinowitz!
I mean, it’s quite clear that there are Jewish space lasers, I saw them in this documentary many years ago
New Deus Ex plot sounds dumb
Nailed it in one, bro!
The tooth is out there…
Scientists Prove Universe Revolves Around Our Sun!
Looks like they were right. The universe is a sphere, not Earth!!
THE UNIVERSE IS INSIDE YOUR EYE
CLICK HERE FOR CRYSTALS THAT EMIT HARMONIC WAVELENGTHS THAT SHAPE THE UNIVERSAL WATER IN YOUR EYE INTO IT’S HARMONIC FORM
Uuh… wrong? That’s obviously a Petri dish in full bloom?
Everyone knows this Universe exists solely as a grad student’s thesis experiment…
Are those the JO Crystals people have been trying to sell me?
JO Crystal is the name of my sister’s only fans.
Username checks out, I guess?
My mind goes round like a roundabout. Whistles and sings.
So the universe is flat, right?
Yeah that outer edge is called the firmament.
/s
That said the models of flat earth would make pretty dope wallclocks even if based on some wildly stupid shit.
Yeah that outer edge is called the firmament.
I mean, it’s not the worst name for the CMB.
Kinda weird to put the sun in the center imo. Cause we’re not the center of it all. But if you put the earth in the center and started spacing out from there it would be pretty cool IMHO
Just for artistic reasons so it can look like an eye
I guess we are trained to see the sun as the center due to historic reasons. Really helps with not assuming everything revolves around us.
But the sun also provides a Bright center for the drawing so there is some artistic merit, I believe.
Why is it weirder to put the sun at the center than to put the earth at the center?
Well if Earth is at the center than this is everything we can see in the observable galaxy from our viewpoint. Having it this way seems like out solar system is the center of it all
We kind of had that discussion in the 16th century, really.
that was about the solar system though, not the observable universe
Is the radial scale logarithmic? Or is it even more compressed than that?
It’s not really to scale at all. Look at the distance between earth and the moon in relation to the other planets.
First thing I will point out is there is no known shape of the universe.
If we assume the hubble constant is the same in all directions, the farthest we’d be able to see would be a sphere, dictated by the time light has had to travel to us.
I’ll admit, I’m not deep in astronomy but thats inherently misguided. In a 3d space, observing from a fixed point, all areas that extend past how far we can observe would not be the shape of the universe but just our range of “vision.”
Thus the term “observable universe”. Everything beyond our observable universe is being expanded away from us at faster than the speed of light, so nothing outside will ever reach us. Causality is completely and irrevocably severed at those distances so, arguably, anything outside the observable universe is not part of “our” universe.
My point is, it doesn’t reveal anything about the nature of the universe only about the limited view we can observe. As far as form goes the form of a sphere is meaningless because it is true of anything in a 3d space that is looking out from a fixed point.
As I just explained, it’s not really about observation, it’s about causation. If two objects can never possibly interact, then are they really in the same universe?
Looking out in space is also looking back in time. Anything (roughly) that is further than we can observe in the microwave background would be further back in time than the beginning of time, and therefore doesn’t exist at all in our universe. It’s a bit brain bending.
So when you say never, do you mean not in the ‘lifetime’ of our sun, or?
I would say yes they are part of the same universe because if you changed your position it would reveal things you didn’t see before and mask thing you use to see. Not that that is possible yet, but there are no laws of physics preventing it, only our super short life spans.
That’s what I’m assuming the original diagram is showing, the “Observable Universe” in some sort of radically increasing scale.
It’d be interesting to see what a log scale would look like for this. I’ll see if I can find one.
Here’s one.

Looks like the image at the top is a bit condensed comparatively.
Is saddle still the best candidate? Like when you move a circle across a circle you get a torus, and when you move a parabola across parabola you get a “saddle”
I want a toroidal universe. Just so it can be eaten by an extracosmic Homer Simpson.
obviously the eye of our universe is flat
Proof that our sun is at the center of the universe and how IMPORTANT humans are in the universe
I mean, it’s arguably in the center of OUR universe :D
You are the center of your observable universe and I’m the center of my own. Granted, at this scale the sun is an acceptable approximation, but the earth’s center is even better.
hahah, the geocentric model confirmed!
I’m not at the center, I’m at the point of the cone of my observable universe
Our universe? We gotta share?
It’s actually mine but I don’t like to say the quiet part out loud.
Also, proof, the universe is flat.
Its obviously the eye of the goddess, who is a huge selfish dragon, which is why were all so screwed - we’re nothing more than a microscopic mote in the eye of a selfish dragon lesser demi-god.
Wait, is this not common knowledge?

as arnold would say, “stop whining!”
you can just learn science and not resort to clickbait titles like “i hate this waaah!”
This is what the human eye looks like through a microscope, from the perspective of a germ on a microscope slide.
For those wondering, this is a (cropped) version of a art piece called “The Celestial Zoo”.
The original:
So - bad OP for not giving credit/ citing reference?
No, just for those that wanted a more “in depth” understanding of the image.
Louis Rossman had a video recently that I think applies here: don’t give in to the premises of assholes. This was particularly directed at Gamer’s Nexus and how Steve over there handles Linus, but it’s good life advice for anyone. I had a roommate that I was thinking of in this regard, and I wish I had this advice at the time.
There are people in this world who try to set conditions for their own benefit at the expense of you. Don’t let them do that. This image is a good example; it’s a perfectly valid model for certain use cases. Don’t let anti-science idiots take that away with their stupidity.
Hell, I think the whole Final Experiment with flat earthers is an example of giving in.
Now and then I’ll watch a Louis Rossman and Gamer’s Nexus video but I don’t follow Linus. Did something happen between them that I missed?
Oh, yeah, lots of drama.
Gamer’s Nexus has always wanted to do very careful testing with wind chambers and sound chambers and such. They’ve been building that sort of thing up over the last few years, but the options for that are at the limits of what they can invest in at their level. However, they’re also very careful about how they do it and document everything.
Now, Linus Media Group was putting together the same sort of lab, but they don’t have the same reputation that Gamer’s Nexus does on being careful and taking your time to get it right. Just the opposite, in fact. What they do have is the capital to invest in a much more elaborate setup. Then some of the staffers made a comment on video directly aimed at Gamer’s Nexus and how LMG’s lab will be better.
That’s when Steve went gloves off and made a whole video detailing LMG’s sins of poor reviews and staff that wish they could spend more time to get things right. Things like “this mouse feels bad when you drag it around the desk”, and it turned out they forgot to take the plastic protective coating off the bottom.
This dominoes into a few other incidents that I’ll spare for the moment so this post doesn’t get too long. Suffice it to say, LMG lost a lot of subscribers because of a series of issues that were highlighted to the community by Gamer’s Nexus, and then that opened up into even more things. It revealed how much LMG’s internals are steeped in bro culture, just in case that wasn’t obvious.
The two have mostly ignored each other since then, but there was one thing that recently surfaced it. Steve apparently had an old phone that had been doxxed some years ago, and he doesn’t use that number anymore. Now, Linus and Steve had been texting at various times to Steve’s new number. Linus recently sent a text to the old number, knowing that Steve wouldn’t ever see it, and then claims on video that Steve isn’t responding to his text on an issue between them. That’s what prompts Louis to make the “don’t give in to the premises of assholes” video.
Linus clearly set that situation up. Louis is more familiar with how people like that function, and he had to walk Steve through the logic of what was going on. That’s the part that reminded me of my old roommate, because I was often in Steve’s situation, and like him, I didn’t recognize it for what it was.

Thanks for laying it out!
Haha, I did not expect to read about this here of all places.
But what about the attack on ganymede?
