“As it absorbed the protons, it morphed into an unstable version of beryllium, which decayed even further, spewing out pairs of electrons and positrons. When the protons smashed against the lithium at the precise angle of 140 degrees, more electrons and positrons poured out than expected.”

That's exactly what I'm saying. It would be like the good half of USA's Daylight Savings, but more frequent and without that pesky 23hr day. 6x4=24, so it would solve the exact same issue the Leap Year is meant to solve.

Do away with leap years. Spread that one day per four years all across those four years, regaining one hour, 6 nights each year.

Why is no one questioning why the water companies allowed the contaminated water to be pumped into everyone's homes?

This actually goes back to one of Einstein's earlier examples of relativity. In the presence of powerful gravitational fields, light bends. This "lens" is the effect of light bending from the unimaginably powerful gravity of hundreds of galaxies.

So "You only get one" ended up meaning only one level?

Well, I see two birds flying here, and one stone squarely aimed at them. The world needs more drinkable water and less sea-level rise. Start siphoning that reservoir immediately and sell it!

My crackpot theory:

It's already been established that time travel is a thing in the Once universe, what with the evil queen stealing her own poisoned apple from the Enchanted Forest's past. I figure it's Will Scarlet goes to Wonderland, becomes Knave of Hearts, meets Alice, flees Wonderland to Earth's future, goes with the rabbit back…

"You don't get a chance to call your bank and say, 'I'm not going to pay my mortgage this month unless you throw in a new car and an Xbox.'"

It is not surprising at all that animals have emotions. It is the way we think, not the way we feel, that sets humans apart from other animals. Man is the rational animal, not just another emotive animal.

If she's so bad, the things she actually said are all you need to demonstrate it. Making shit up is simply foolish and counter-productive.

No, I'm saying that far too many people make shit up about her rather than discussing those actual historical documents. The above comic consists mostly of made-up shit with a vague backdrop of a historical timeline.

Why can't everyone just buy their own pizza? Or band together as they see fit?

Yes, that does apply to every page of the comic. Thank you for the addition.

Interesting that everyone who hates the woman invariably resorts to making shit up.

How is the moment of the subjects awareness measured? In every study I've seen, it is self-reported. The moment awareness is reported is not the moment awareness occurred. The subject must recognize that awareness has occurred, remember to report it, then go through the physical motions of actually reporting it. …

You refuse to believe that more computing power will not allow more powerful computations? Wow, dude. Wow.
