Wtf, that's crazy! Why don't they tell you about this kind of stuff in school?

Surprisingly, plate tectonics is a relatively new field of study and wasn't accepted until 1965, and before that, there was a nebulous contiential drift theory proposed in the 1910s. And of course, curriculums and books lagged behind that.

That also means that Geologists have been reverse engineering plate tectonics since then and there are several diverging theories as to where things were at different geoglical eras after going back far enough.

Here's a bunch of nerdy geology videos, if you like that kind of thing.

What's this a reference to?

A tweet from 2019 where someone did a time travel campaign, but accidentally added a mountain that wasn't there in the present. The players were wondering what happened to the mountain, and the DM was wondering that too. Eventually, they ran a poll, and decided it got up and walked away.

This community, back on reddit, went absolutely nuts over that. There were a LOT of memes.

It just put on its hide boots and walked away?

I saw a post a dm talks how he forgot a mountain that exist in past, and how players exited to see what happened to mountain.
