Ridiculous. This line is clearly gay.

This is bi erasure.

JackbyDev ,

Not even 10 am and I’m being erased.

Saying that it’s bi erasure is gay erasure.

We claimed it is erasure first, and now here’s our flag.

Hey, you even have the eraser right there is the middle! I suppose that makes it convenient?

I really do love convenience!

Never thought I’d get to use “bisectional” outside of JD Vance jokes

This whole map is woke.

It’s bi sectional.

But still, don’t you hunger for the mines?

Toiling in the meme mines.

Edit: I have just finished reading The Neverending Story and this reminds me of the last part where Bastian works in the picture mines until he finds the right picture.

Globists will argue that on a globe this is a straight line. Seen these arguments before, don’t work on me

essell ,

Nice. Be proud.

Dunno what of, but be proud anyway!

lugal , (edited )

Thanks! I’m very proud of seeing the truth. Watch this short video and you will being to understand. But watch it to the end, it’s short enough

Quacksalber ,

The ending really brings the whole video together. Thanks for sharing!

You know, I’d never actually thought of it that way. Very informative video for it’s short length. Thank you for sharing.

RattlerSix ,

I’ve seen that video a hundred times and it never fails to disappoint

JackbyDev ,

You’ve made a believer of me.

vaquedoso ,

One of the most compelling arguments I’ve heard. I must say I was a skeptic before but this really opened my eyes

lunarul ,

Don’t know about other clients, but vger shows a thumbnail of the video

Better?

Hmm, really makes you think…

You youngsters with your Einstein Rosen-bridges! Always in too much of a hurry to take the scenic route!

A straight line may be the shortest distance between two points, but it is by no means the most interesting.

Reminds me of the movie Event Horizon.

    Because going in that route would make it touch land which in the twitter post it says straight line without touching land

    I’ve always thought Australia was a trouble maker.

    India. You would have to set off somewhat perpendicular to the Indian coastline to be perfectly straight.

    ironhydroxide ,

    For some reason I don’t think this is true.

    A straight line connecting two things does not necessarily have to connect to said things perpendicular to their border.

    ChaoticNeutralCzech , (edited )

    Not to mention, India’s coastline is very much not straight on a local scale. You’re bound to find a place where it turns perpendicular to the journey close to the theoretical starting point anyway.

    supamanc ,

    Yeah but, I’m talking about this particular case, not making a mathematical rule. You have to move away from the coast, and then cannot turn, so you have to head towards Africa. You can’t set off toward Australia. Although I hadn’t considered that you can just move the starting point. So, there’s that.

    Bassman1805 ,

    Alaska, Canada, Russia, a few on the -stans.

    This is the longest straight-line all-water route on earth.

    bstix ,

    The picture was about sailing the longest direct line.

    It’s not the longest anyway, but that’s what it was about. Technically one could sail infinitely many times around Antarctica in a straight line.

    ChaoticNeutralCzech , (edited )

    around Antarctica in a straight line

    No, that’s not Earth’s great circle, you’ll be turning slightly. It only seems straight on most map projections because they want latitudes to be horizontal.

    bstix ,

    Well, I stand corrected. I guess we’ll need to wait for the ice on the North pole to melt before we can make a more stupid voyage.

    lolcatnip ,

    It would, however, seem like a straight line to whoever was on the boat, because they’d be traveling due west the whole time, and the course corrections they’d have to make to keep going west would look the same as course corrections needed to account for wind, ocean currents, etc.

    ChaoticNeutralCzech ,

    I know but you need to be the right amount of pedantic. Too little and any sufficiently large curve seems straight, too much and you point out that there is no straight line on the surface of a sphere.
