For things that are "hmmm".
Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

Yep. I love it, too, for the same reasons.
You’ll love deichkind if you only could understand deutsche maimais
Reminds me of this comic
Why hold it? Put it on a stand.
And what happens when it falls over?
I trust a good stand over anyone holding it. People can trip, fall asleep, or just get tired.
Would be super useful for zero G environments.
Would up matter without gravity?
I mean a lot of questions arose if you think at all about this comic, so I get what you’re saying.
It appears to create gravitational pull in whatever direction the hilt is pointed. My guess is it only works in a certain area around the sword, otherwise the universe would have already imploded from all gravity everywhere pulling in the same direction.
Assuming all interplanetary gravity is also gone, all stars would eventually travel in (roughly) the same direction but at different speed. There would be some collisions but I don't think the mass would be imploding.
What happens when the stars eventually reach relativistic speeds?
Great to see my parents found an actual picture from when they were young of their walk to work..
Both ways.
Where’s the snow? I was lied to!
Well, nobody ever drove me to school when it was ninety degrees below
We had to walk buck naked through forty miles of snow
this is the kind of incline boomers had to walk to school and back
School must be out for the summer, as I don't see 3 feet of snow.
Typical New England driveway.
This is not an exaggeration. Me and my family (simple Southern Midwest folk) tried driving in New England in the winter and almost fell off the face of the Earth!
"Good work! Only 5,000 more of these uphill steps to complete you 'Move' ring for the day"
Great, looks like somebody bent the ground again.

This is exactly the kind of slope the stair master is DESIGNED to prepare you for!
There is a special Dutch Instagram page with images like this. https://www.instagram.com/schevepalen

That's pretty fucking racist
I love these, it's so cool. Thanks for sharing.
Oh I love Pittsburgh!
When I went too far transforming the terrain in Rollercoaster Tycoon
"There can only be one!"
Each lamp post was bought from a different city and is parallell to the lamp posts in its city of origin.
That's super cool! I was just making a Highlander reference.
This is a great photo! Makes you think & physically interact with it by having to turn your head. 12/10.
New wallpaper for my phone
At this scale light isn’t affected by gravity, keeping the post up doesn’t help the dispersal of light.
A black ski slope during the summer.
I want to cycle down it.
Dang that's a satisfying photo. So well composed.
A little WW1 Tommy on the piss.
Huh that's crazy
Reminds me of the last episodes in JoJo 5 - Jolyne Cujoh's arc
