    And a continent is just a really big island.

    Therefore a continent is actually just a big mountain.

      If the Earth were the size of a basketball, it wouldn’t even feel wet to the touch because of how thin the oceans would be relatively. Scales are wild

    Salt lakes typically have rivers containing trace amounts of salt flowing into them but no rivers flowing out. That means the only way water can leave is through evaporation, but the salts get left behind and the salinity therefore builds up.

    I learned this in Geography 101. Then I had a shower thought that the oceans of the world are just a giant salt lake.

    And the sea is just a big lake. The sea floor a long valley. Fish are valley people. Land animals are mountain folk.
