OTD in 1912, Alfred Wegener delivered a lecture propounding the theory that our modern continents were formed by the splitting and drifting apart of an ancient supercontinent, which he named Pangea.

In November, 77 million Americans said "to hell with them" and voted for the insurrectionists.
Your "Back the Blue" flags are a pathetic disgrace and your patriotism is bullsh*t.

In the same way if 76.9 million Americans vote for a foolish thing it’s still a foolish thing.

"My powers can't be demonstrated under scientific conditions because they only work sometimes."
"My powers are failing now because there is too much skepticism in the room."
