Ah, spring! The season of blooming flowers, longer days and sneezing fits.

Something is happening inside the Earth scientists say.
Something is happening inside the Earth, scientists say. The Earth our home is a dynamic and ever changing planet with processes occurring deep within its interior that continue to surprise and intrigue scientists. Recent research has revealed that the Earth’s inner core a solid sphere of iron and nickel located approximately 3,000 miles beneath the surface is undergoing unexpected structural changes. These changes are not only altering the physical nature of the core but may also be influencing the length of our days albeit in subtle ways. This discovery has opened up new avenues for understanding the complex and mysterious workings of our planet’s interior. For decades scientists have been aware that the Earth’s inner core is not static. Most of the research conducted so far has focused on the core’s rotation which is believed to be slightly out of sync with the rest of the planet. However a new study has shifted the focus to other types of activity occurring within the core revealing that it is not just rotating but also undergoing significant structural transformations. These changes are thought to be driven by the immense pressures and temperatures found at such depths as well as the gravitational forces exerted by the surrounding molten outer core.

FROM GRAVEYARD 🪦😲
I was raised atheist and was a rabid anti-theist continuing into adulthood. When I was in my late twenties I had an out-of-body experience and am convinced that God showed me a glimpse of Hell. And by “showed me a glimpse of,” I mean that I believe I experienced Hell. It’s impossible to accurately describe or explain because it’s a spiritual dimension, and so there’s nothing in the natural world which can even be compared; the best I can do is offer my experience.
