The Earth is spinning faster

It is elementary school knowledge that Earth takes exactly 24 hours to rotate on its axis, but something has changed since at least as early as 2020. The quickening spin can impact GPS satellites as well as communication systems on the planet

 

The Earth recorded the shortest day ever in its life on 29 July when it completed a full spin in 1.59 milliseconds less than its standard 24-hour rotation.

According to a report by the Independent, it nearly broke the barrier again this month, with 26 July being 1.50 milliseconds shorter than 24 hours.

Taylors impact. JK it probably wont have any huge effect until like we all die, but the earth will always survive. We wont.

I wonder what else in this article is wrong? :cm: Is it trustworthy? :cm: 

Poles shifting maybe? I read that a sudden pole change can be cataclysmic and we're almost due for one :dancehall:

She's had enough :swan:

Can it spin off to the ******* sun like right now? Or in a week after Beyonce collects her #1s 

R9 is apparently coming so the earth got too excited

Maybe that's why this month of July seemed so short to me :monkey:

I don't think you know how gravity works. :skull:

The world is ending people, but that doesn't mean we can't party to our inevitable doom. Stream Spinning World by Perfume for a centrifugal bop.
