  • Which Came Last: the Tortoise or the Onion Unraveling into Nothingness?

    Which Came Last: the Tortoise or the Onion Unraveling into Nothingness?
    Jan 22 2026
    Anyone who’s ever had to educate a talking donkey would know, onions have layers (just like ogres). But, just like in the story with the giant, green, scottish (?) ogre — it’s important to remember the lessons behind the fables! Like the tortoise and the hare, which reminds us that even if the tortoise doesn’t win the race, it’ll outlive a rabbit by several decades. Take that RABBIT.QUESTIONSJulian: "At what distance race would a tortoise actually be likely to beat a hare?" from Patreon poll winner NickTrace: "What is the half-life of an onion? If it was hypothetically preserved could it radioactive decay? How long would it take?" from BynzyldyhydeditoximonothaixyprophineDo you have an absurd question? Maybe it's a silly idea that popped into your head, a shower thought about the nature of reality, or a ridiculous musing about your favorite food?
