"Well... You see... When its a particle it spins. When its a wave its still doing that. How does a waveform spin you ask? Listen. Shut the fuck up. The math is really weird and some of this stuff just happens and you can't visualize it in your head. We didn't believe it at first either but after 50 years of experiments we have to just accept that reality is consistent with the math even if we don't fully conceptualize what that means even"

We are all just folds in this wonderfully weird thing we call spacetime!

The prions of spacetime.

Out here folding along.

Nice reference to PBS Space Time. The YouTube channel where I just get bullied with science, and for some weird twisted reason I like it.

pbs space time is awesome, and this description is even more so.

Bullied with science sounds like a fun band name

Hah! Time. Like that's a real thing.

  • When it's* a particle
  • When it's* a wave
  • it's* still doing that

shrug I mostly browse Lemmy on my phone. I don't give a shit enough to correct autocorrect mistakes. My message was clear even with piddly little autocorrect mistakes

Totally fine by me. I was just making a bad pun. (I'm not the one who corrected you.)

You wrote a comment so good that I screenshotted it.

Of course waves can spin, it just does so in some conceptual "dimension".
