The people memeing themselves into seeing Kharg as the absolute key would no doubt have felt the same about German ballbearing production in 1943. Or the Oil Plan.

Marco Boobio - a brain the size of a tiny pea or ballbearing.
Little Marco know they don't like feeling kids at school . So, I'm need him to stop quoting scriptures if he's not going to live by them.

I hear if we destroy German ballbearing production, the Third Reich’s entire war effort will collapse.

The only instruments: synth, distorted bass & percussion like a ballbearing broke loose in a factory. I wrote about the birth of synth pop, Numan's prescience, our lonely dystopia & parallel earths: bit.ly/carsalone

Rock music is for dancing and don’t you forget it! If you like pop melodies & big guitars you should like glam metal. I love that the youth got Round and Round to chart again recently. RATT released really solid albums from 1984-91. That’s a lot.

I think you will find out that over 200 countries have called President Trump BEGGING him to let them move their ballbearing factories to the US and also that everything will be ok after Steiner's counterattack.

Yep, I was about to say “like a ballbearing” but now I think Ballbearing is a Pokémon of its own like a spherical bear.

The mysterious structure was hypnotic in its intricacy. Wheels turned, pistons moved. Every minute, a tiny ballbearing dropped onto a diaphragm, which immediately sank down, building huge amounts of #potential energy. It then fired the steel ball at a screen, where it was atomised.
But why?

they use their full capacity tiny ballbearing sized noodles.
Great idea for those of us who live in rural areas. What about our friends and neighbors in the inner city? Do these people think before they speak about anything?

There is a study about how when you leave a room the doorway erases the thought you had leaving the room so you have to go back and get it. So if thought=ballbearing, door=ballbearing filter.

This is a #linocut print with faux gold gilding. I think I printed it before switching to a ballbearing baren -- if you haven't tried using one, you're missing out.
Also, here's a #printmaking for good measure 🙃

i have been brewing this joke for 25 years, from when i took my materials science class in grad school
incidentally, we got to see a metallic glass ballbearing bouncing and it is fucking WEIRD … it barely loses any height with each bounce, just goes and goes and goes
