Your Brain’s Reality Illusions

Stop scrolling because your brain is currently lying to you about reality. First off,

did you know that magenta doesn't actually exist? There is no wavelength for it; your brain

literally just invents the color to fill a gap. Even weirder, sharks are actually

older than trees and even older than the rings of Saturn. But the most insane part?

If you removed all the empty space from the atoms making up every human on Earth,

the entire population would fit inside a single sugar cube. We are ninety-nine percent empty space.

It sounds impossible, but it’s the only reason why your brain is currently lying to you about

reality.
