Proterozoic Eon
Comprising of the Paleoproterozoic, Mesoproterozoic and Neoproterozoic Eras, This eon spans from 2.5 billion years ago to 541 million years ago lasting almost 2 billion years.
During the beginning of this eon, cyanobacteria rapidly reproduced and photosynthesized turning a lot of carbon dioxide to oxygen. This oxygen reacted with the iron in the oceans, filling the oceans with iron rust BIFs, turning the oceans blood red. Later, there was no longer enough iron to hold onto the oxygen, and it escaped into the atmosphere. That oxygen formed the ozone layer. Nearly all of the carbon dioxide turned into oxygen, turning earth into a snowball earth.
The snowball earth quickly recovered after 300 million years. Then, supercontinent Columbia formed. For the next billion years, climate remained notably stable. This period of time from 1.8 billion years to 800 million years ago was called "The boring billion". During this period, supercontinent Rodinia formed, but broke apart. The rocks that became exposed sucked up more carbon dioxide from volcanoes, turning earth into a second snowball earth.
After that recovered, the two halves of Rodinia reunited around the South Pole forming supercontinent Pannotia. However, it broke apart during the end of the eon just as animals started to appear, as Laurentia rifted away from the rest of the supercontinent. Finally, the End-Ediacaran extinction event took place to end the eon.

Imagine living during the middle of the Proterozoic Eon! There would be no plants, no animals, just water, land and bacteria!

Proterognosis
The direct knowing of what came before — not just before today, or before your lifetime, but before time itself began ticking. A fusion of proteros (earlier, prior) and gnosis (direct knowing).
Where Chronognosis is about sensing the right time now, Proterognosis is about touching the primordial before, the deep ground that precedes all clocks, calendars, and causes.

She was so attuned to proterognosis that she didn’t just remember her childhood, she knew about a time before the ticking of time itself had started.

Nutshot
It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.

Today in the baseball game the pitcher took a nutshot; the baseball hit him in the nuts.
Man, I just watched the funniest nutshot video ever.

Nerd neck
A "human" that spends so much time playing video games that their posture is level nerd neck. Everytime anyone goes tryhard they hunch down and their neck gets longer there fore a nerd neck is always hunched down cause they're always going try hard. In other words a nerd neck is a try hard, since their neck is 100% longer than the average human being due to playing too many video games and taking them serious, nerd necks are not even considered human anymore but something more sad. Nerd necks are often found on fortnite, their natural habitat usually being tilted towers.
