minus-squareHalo@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoDude, North, South, East and West are not real either. Again, you need a frame of reference. Those are 100% arbitrary.
minus-squareMango@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·1 year agoI can’t tell if you’re taking me seriously or not. 🤣
