Bill! Hillary! You’re here to save me!

@Max uwu hm?

Remember, the Americans are still using lbs

I remember using stone as well back in the UK

1 st = 14 lbs

Idk, as an American I've never understood stone

All these measurements are older than the metric system. It was easier to understand for some 15th century merchant.

Doing surveying right now, and I've come to appreciate the imperial system of distance measurements

It's all based on fractions of the earth's circumference

Base 12 was used by the Sumerians

The foot is defined as 1/3 of a yard, and unrelated to a mile.

Pretty based and redpilled: my ethno feudalist friend decided to censor a bunch of words in his server so everyone was freaking out kek, he banned the word Zimbabwe and Rhodesia for some reason

Sadly they won’t learn anything from the experience
