@OhNoSheTwitnt last year, weren't they measuring asteroids in 🦒 giraffes? Who knew astronomers had such senses of humor, locked away in their telescope towers all night??
@OhNoSheTwitnt I'm sure there are many different pets we could use in this system. Octopi for volume, for example. And as @kurtpankau suggests, there are a variety of uses for cats as units of measurement in the Petric system.
@OhNoSheTwitnt but what dog will be the “dog standard?”I mean there’s a lot of difference between say a Great Pyranees and a Chihuahua…will different cultures choose their favorite dogs? US chooses a lab, Japan chooses a Shiba Inu… This could get very messy and complicated.
@OhNoSheTwitnt@GossiTheDog That would still be less arbitrary and incomprehensible than the Imperial System of Measures so you know what I'm rooting for this
