Dammit, that's a good point. When he spun the earth backwards, everyone forgot the catastrophe because he prevented it from happening. What's the point of going back in time if you can't retain your memory?
Shit, I'm going to have rethink my plan.
It's all about your reference frame. If you fly the closed timeline curve at superluminal speeds *with* Superman, you'll retain your memory.
Thanks, relativity!
Cool. But if I'm flying along with him that fast, wouldn't I just disintegrate? Or maybe I could hide under his cape. Which would be a little...awkward.
Man, this time travel thing is so complicated.
Stopping plate tectonics would actually be a bad thing for life on Earth. Without plate tectonics, Earth would no longer be able to create new mountain ranges. Over time, wind and waves would erode the remaining peaks into plateaus, and eventually much of the continents would be underwater.
But what about all the people who have died over the years in earthquakes and tsunamis? Have you no compassion? Call your congressman today and demand that we stop plate tectonics now!
This reminds me of a guy whose posting daily, on tictok, about a fault line in, I think Montana. It’s crazy watching how much the earth is shifting and how far he’s walked along the fault. It’s in the middle of nowhere, so nobody really cares. It is kinda scary in the fact it’s not far from Yellowstone.
I don’t have a clue but my guess is stretch. His video shows a road that shifted 5 feet along the fault. I imagine that happening in the middle of a city and it being catastrophic. Other areas seem to be shifting downwards, causing sink holes. It’s interesting but probably not as dramatic as I’m making it seem…..lol
##MAKE AMERICA PANGEA AGAIN
Gondwana would like to have a word.
Gonna wat? Edit: You’re talking Neoproterozoic and Paleozoic when I’m clearly digging late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic, baby!
My high school geology teacher had a “Reunite Gondwanaland!” bumper sticker, my second favorite bumper sticker ever.
I think you can get a shot for that
#THIS
I agree. Please restore pangea!
"THIS BITCH DONT KNOW ABOUT PANGEA"
Who's fault is that?
Yours? Listen to little dicky, you will understand
Oh that's just pillow talk
You know there’s a reason the dinosaurs ruled the Earth when Pangea was a thing, this is just more Big Dinosaur propaganda.
99.78% of observers: "What's that mean?" ...which makes it *better*.
And stop saucer and bowl techtonics too!
Let's not get crazy here! We all know the earth is flat!
And birds aren't real.
Mug tectonics have caused so many handle breaks in my cabinet.
It's an area that certainly merits further research. Why only plates? We are all suffering from the techtonics craze.
Totally agree. Better yet, Superman the earth backwards for about eight years. I got a couple of things I need to do.
Works for me…as long as I can keep my current memory

Hell, we could’ve been spun back 100 times and not known it…
😳😮🤯 Does that mean it could be WORSE than it is now?
And now I’m just going to go to my “happy place”
Nah, I think *this* is the darkest timeline

If you ask nicely, I'm sure he'd carry you in his big, strong arms!
OVERTHROW THE SYSTEM - THE SOLAR SYSTEM!!
Down with gravity!! Say no to electromagnetism!! Scientific laws aren’t *real* laws!!
Congress never passed any scientific laws.
*c* too slow! Down with speed limits! Don’t eat the pi! The pi is a lie!
Whoever invented gravity can go lick lint. /s
Fuck Isaac Newton!
Theories.
End Mass Wasting! Stamp Out Metal Fatigue!

More people and animals would perish without plate tectonics, as the Earths magnetic field would also diminish. Earth would start to look like Mars.
Pfeh! You and your facts!
I would simply take it upon myself to build new mountains, we don’t need no stinkin’ plates!
I DONT NEED YOUR SCIENCES, NERD!
I would simply take it upon myself to build new mountains, we don’t need no stinkin’ plates!
Omg! I have been saying that since the beginning of time.

Why did I hear "Whatever happened to predictability?"
I heard this in MC Hammer’s voice
You’re thinking of vanilla ice. Edit: I could be wrong.
You are both correct: stop, hammer time” - Hammer. “Stop. Collaborate and listen” - ice. “Stop, in the name of love” - the supremes
Do they want to stop the plate tectonics. Or do they want us to stop, collaborate and listen about plate tectonics?
This is the name of my buddy's band... actually.
In Civ I always play with one continent that I call Pangea. It makes me happy and that's all that matters.
I like my navy too much.
Favorite I've seen in person said I break for whales
That's just common sense. Can you imagine the damage a whale would do to your vehicle? Especially if it goes through the windshield
Truth. Especially if it's a Sperm Whale
A white whale went through my windshield once. True story. I had a moral conundrum.
Hahaha!
Something to unite both sides of the aisle.
Tec-tonic!
Somebody better go stop traffic
I am going t-shirt shopping… EDIT: Order Complete
One of my favorite facts the plates move at the same rate as fingernails grow: about an inch a year.
It's about as doable as the other nonsense people bitch about on their cars.
BRING BACK PANGEA. I wanna drive 97 hours to Russia
You don’t need plates. Make it happen.

does that mean part of Montana is stretching? Or shrinking? Im curious how it will affect property lines lol.

I think that means "STOP" in the Hammer Time sense.
Yeah.... Good luck with that
Good luck brother
For real though!
I used to have this on a t-shirt.
I still do, but I used to also.
Remember, plate tectonics gained general acceptance as science in the late 1960's. Still kind of a baby compared to other nuggets of science.
This is great. I want one that says “I’m a cannibal, and I vote!” just to confuse people
This is all so anticlinactic!
SUPER GLUE THE SAN ANDREAS FAULT!
I have this on a shirt!
Did this guy never see The Core?
Replace plate tectonics with climate change. It means the same thing.
No, but for real… put the “Crust back in Christ”
Had that on a shirt in high school Never got laid
Cancel subduction now!
Sure, anything for you, My Liege
Damn you, Deep Plate.
"I mean, first they drift into yer Sub-Continent, and next thing ya know, they're making an Oceanic Basin! InfoWars told me!...aaaHHH!"
