  • astpartame is one of the most intensely studied additives and the worst they can come up with is "it might slightly raise the risk of cancer", which also applies to being on an airplane.

  • the dipper is only part of the actual constellation, the dipper itself is instead an "asterism", which basically means constellation but less arbitrary and nonsensical.

    the mountain range between north america and africa creates the super interesting situation where the sides are almost entirely separated save for the coast and a teensy tiny bit near cape town that's sort of crossable, so the coast would see an insane amount of traffic and i could see there being a capital nestled in the mountains next to the passage to cape town.
    And of course the indian ocean would be where basically everyone lives, as others have said.
