It’d have to be. Otherwise how could the ground be level if we were on the side of a sphere?

Check and mate. 🫳🎤

I enjoy how you had to hold it very specifically this way around so that none of the spirit level bubbles were in the middle.

Well, where I live in the world (North Carolina, USA), I would imagine I’m somewhere between the middle of the ball (equator) and the top of the ball (Arctic). So yeah, that happens to be a position where none of the bubbles are in the middle. 😊

Seems like a level headed maneuver.

Actually can happen if the little ampule is misaligned in the housing. Easy to test for, turn the level around, if it reads level one way but not another it’s not a good level. Relatedly: Don’t buy spirit levels or measuring tools at Harbor Freight.

Actually not level, the right side is slightly higher

Round earth prevails again, even in the face of another round earther! Take THAT you heathen!
