The Highest Mountain Is Relative

Imagine being a fish during the Devonian Period (419-359 million years ago) and looking at land like it's free real estate! This fishy fellow is basically saying "Hey, nobody's using those legs yet... DIBS!" The Devonian was when our finned ancestors were just starting to experiment with limbs, but hadn't quite figured out the whole "walking" thing. It's like evolution was playing "The Floor is Lava" but everyone was still stuck in the water! That empty ecological niche was just waiting for someone brave enough to flop their way onto shore and claim those sweet, sweet terrestrial resources. Talk about a ground-floor opportunity in evolutionary real estate!

Ever had that moment when you're so deep into a YouTube rabbit hole at 2AM that the multiverse Earth theory starts making perfect sense? This diagram is basically what happens when actual science collides with conspiracy theories in a spectacular cosmic car crash. From "Convex Earth" to "Hollow Earth" and the ever-popular "Secret Tunnel" (because who doesn't want a shortcut to Evil Earth?), this is what happens when geometry meets paranoia. The Illuminati branding at the top really ties the whole aesthetic together. Next time someone tries to explain why the Earth is flat, just whip out this chart and say "Actually, it's a complex geometric arrangement of multiple Earths connected by secret tunnels." Watch their brain short-circuit trying to come up with a counter-argument.

The cosmic irony hits hard! Flat Earth Society members win a space trip, only to discover—gasp—the Earth is actually spherical. The progressive panels show their mental gymnastics from denial to bargaining ("at least we won this free space tour!") to finally requesting a return trip. By the last panel, they're so far away that Earth appears as a tiny blue marble, providing undeniable visual evidence of its roundness. The punchline? Mission Control's silence speaks volumes—probably wondering how to explain that gravity will bring them back regardless of their beliefs. Nothing like empirical evidence to flatten a conspiracy theory!

This is what happens when paleontologists try to cut corners on their theme parks! The comic brilliantly parodies Jurassic Park with "Cambrian Park" - featuring creatures from 490 million years ago instead of dinosaurs. While dinosaurs might eat you, these Cambrian critters like trilobites are... slightly less impressive tourist attractions. The budget-conscious scientists proudly showing off a single fossil display is giving serious "we have Jurassic Park at home" energy. The Cambrian explosion gave us incredible biodiversity, but apparently not incredible theme park experiences!

Ever notice how the rich flee to pristine suburbs while the sewage follows right behind them? 😂 That's the hilarious irony of wastewater infrastructure! Aeration basins (those bubbling pools that break down organic waste) are crucial for treating our sewage but nobody wants them as neighbors. The wealthy escape downtown only to discover their fancy new neighborhood comes with eau de poop-treatment! It's environmental justice with a twist - even the fanciest zip codes can't escape the biological reality that everyone's waste has to go somewhere! Nature's ultimate equalizer!

Someone boldly declares "The earth is 4000 years old. Change my mind." and then gets absolutely demolished by radioactive decay facts. It's like bringing a Bible to a nuclear physics fight. Poor guy never stood a chance against uranium-238's 4.5 billion year half-life. That's the scientific equivalent of saying "I think this mountain is a molehill" and then getting buried under the actual mountain. The best part? Lead exists. That's it. That's the knockout punch. Billions of years of cosmic decay processes just sitting there in periodic table form, staring back at young-earth believers like "You sure about that timeline, buddy?"
