Preservation of Causality Theory

A framework emphasizing that causality is preserved across all physical interactions, no matter how extreme. Preservation of Causality suggests that cause and effect are not just regularities but inviolable structures of reality. Even in quantum mechanics, even in general relativity, even in speculative physics—causes precede effects. The theory doesn't explain how; it posits that preservation is fundamental. It's the physicist's article of faith: causality holds, always and everywhere.
Preservation of Causality Theory "Quantum mechanics seems random—effects without apparent causes. Preservation of Causality says: the causes are just hidden, not absent. Randomness is ignorance, not violation. Causality always wins. The theory is a bet: keep looking for causes, and you'll find them. Causality preserved, always."

Theory of Preservation of Causality

A framework asserting that causality is preserved under all physical transformations—no matter how extreme the conditions, cause will always precede effect. Theory of Preservation of Causality suggests that causality isn't just a regularity but an inviolable structure of reality. Even in quantum mechanics, even in black holes, even in speculative FTL scenarios—causality holds. The theory doesn't explain how; it posits that preservation is fundamental. It's the physicist's faith: cause before effect, always and everywhere.
Theory of Preservation of Causality "Quantum entanglement seems instantaneous—effect without time for cause. Preservation of Causality says: the cause is just hidden, not absent. Information may travel differently, but causality always wins. The theory is a bet: keep looking, and you'll find the causal chain. Causality preserved, always."

Theory of Preservation of Causality in FTL Scenarios

A framework asserting that causality is preserved absolutely, even under FTL conditions—meaning that no matter how fast you travel, cause will always precede effect in all reference frames. The Theory of Preservation of Causality in FTL Scenarios suggests that FTL doesn't lead to paradox because there's a deeper structure—perhaps a privileged frame, perhaps quantum consistency—that ensures causal order remains intact. Unlike conservation (which allows transformation), preservation insists on invariance: causality is not just balanced but maintained. FTL might be possible, but it will never allow you to change the past because causality itself prevents it.
Theory of Preservation of Causality in FTL Scenarios "Warp drive engaged—faster than light, but when they arrived, they hadn't caused anything that wasn't already caused. Preservation of Causality says: FTL doesn't break causality; it just bends around it. The universe has safeguards. You can go fast, but you can't outrun cause and effect. They're always ahead of you, waiting."

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!

A plate of brown consists of foods that have little to no nutritional value, and are typically deep fried. A true plate of brown will also be accompanied by a dark soda.
