Twitter Physicist Rewrites Relativity Between Coffee Refills
Just what we needed—another amateur physicist who "disproved" Einstein during a coffee break. This brave soul derived relativistic kinetic energy from first principles and—gasp!—got E₀=½mc². Revolutionary stuff, truly. The punchline? They're actually onto something mathematically sound but missed the entire point of rest energy. It's like discovering your car has wheels and declaring Henry Ford was wrong about automobiles. What's funnier than the derivation is the earnest "hopefully that clears some things up" at the end. Yes, thank you for clearing up a century of established physics with your Twitter thread. The Nobel committee must be frantically searching for your contact information.
