Retrograde Earth

A world where Earth spins from East to west, and where many other things are reversed

On Retrograde Earth, the Sun rises in the west, the Sun sets in the east, spiders are scared of humans, workers can fire their bosses, criminals arrest cops, Ukraine invades Russia, and men are held to unrealistic beauty standards.

Retrocausality

A hypothetical phenomenon where effects precede their causes—where the future influences the past, rather than the other way around. Retrocausality challenges our most fundamental intuition about time: that cause always comes before effect. In retrocausal scenarios, an event in the present could be caused by something in the future; decisions yet to be made could shape history already written. While this sounds like science fiction, certain interpretations of quantum mechanics (the transactional interpretation, Wheeler's delayed-choice experiments) hint that retrocausality might be real at the quantum level. Particles seem to "decide" their past based on future measurements. Retrocausality asks: what if time's arrow is not as fixed as we think? What if the future is already influencing the present, and we just can't see it?

"The particle's path changed based on a measurement that hadn't happened yet—as if the future reached back and told the past what to do. Retrocausality: effects before causes, future shaping past. Quantum mechanics hints at it; logic recoils from it. But nature doesn't care about our logic. Maybe time flows both ways, and we're just too slow to notice."

Retrograding the Cakehole

(verb)

1.
To speak with such catastrophic stupidity, cosmic-level nonsense, or aggressively misplaced confidence that it feels like your mouth is reversing through time, undoing human evolution one syllable at a time.

2.
When someone talks so much garbage that reality glitches, Mercury goes into retrograde out of self-defense, and the universe files a noise complaint.

3.
A linguistic war crime performed using the mouth (aka the “cakehole”), typically accompanied by unwarranted opinions, loud wrongness, or the refusal to shut the fuck up.

A: “Bro I think dinosaurs died because they smoked too much volcano.”
B: “Please stop retrograding the cakehole before I lose brain cells.”

Boss: “Where’s that report I didn’t ask for?”
Me: “Love, you’re retrograding the cakehole again. Try thinking.”

Mom: “Why is your cousin’s WhatsApp status important for your career?”
You: “Ma… MA… you’re retrograding the cakehole.”

(Say this only if you want to die instantly.)
