Immanentising the eschaton

a stunning first lady ill-treated by her philandering husband finds solace in the forbidding yet hunky secretary of defense, could be a decent romance novel setup though they might both have to be werewolves for it to really sell.

kind of crazy that the sun is the closest thing we have to an unholy seething vortex of magical energy, a pulsating orb that is periodically ripped by screaming flares that lash us with incredible ferocity from a hundred million miles away, and we're like mmm what a nice day! 😊

one of my favorite Sun Facts is that if sound could be transmitted through the vacuum of space the intensity of sound power emitted from the sun that reached the earth would be roughly as intense a noise as a jet airplane taking off a couple hundred meters away. The Sun is really loud!

Another one of my favorite Sun Facts is that the actual nuclear fusion occurs in roughly the innermost 25% by radius and the actual energy output is on the order of the amount produced just by your body keeping itself warm. But the Sun is very very big and very very old so it gets very very hot despite how absurdly slow fusion is.

It takes a solar photon generated in the core between 10,000 years and 170,000 years to reach the surface, for a speed of 0.00014 to 0.002 m/s, because of absorption and then re-emission in the dense interior. And then they break free at the photosphere and start traveling at the speed of light for the rest of their lifetime.

if they're getting absorbed and "re-emitted" is it really the same photon 🤔
