A community dedicated to the lowest quality facts.
While the community is named after the mastodon account Low Quality Facts it is not required to post related to that account. As long as the post is low enough quality, it belongs in this community.
A low quality fact could be a few things:
- Something blatantly untrue but stated as a fact
- Something true but stated in a way that makes it sound made up
- Something so blatantly obvious it doesnt need to be said at all.
Examples:
"Louis Armstrong stored jelly beans in his trumpet, which he would discreetly eat during his performances."
"If you took a persons digestive system and stretched it out end to end, it would hurt a lot."
"Whales are notoriously bad trumpet players."
Posts can be in whatever form best displays the low quality fact.
RULES
1: Be civil. No racism or any of that non-sense
2: Only low quality facts!

Considering that the Milky Way's central black hole, Sagittarius A*, is only about five million solar masses, then that would likely have a devastating effect on the entire local group of galaxies.
Pluto's orbit is really eccentric, but it's usually about 5.5 light hours from the sun. My understanding is that the central core would form a new black hole quite quickly and most of the mass outside the event horizon would be drawn into a tight orbit, being accelerated to near-light speed and be ejected as relativistic jets from the 'poles' of the new black hole.
It would be an exciting few days, for sure. Not that 'days' would have much meaning when what remains of the earth make an orbit every few seconds.
