Andre lifts over 9000 lbs. off the floor with one hand. Wow.

Back to the main worldbuilding stuff 🤓

A Fourth Dimension Reality (or A4 for short) is a story about two teenagers with out of this world powers (aka Superman). They're on a mission to find out more about themselves so there's a lot of exploration I have in here.

Dimension tears in reality called Rifts

Out of the world creatures called, Blood Borns, Selestials, 4th Dimensional beings, Ahgels, Demohns, Ghosts, Spirits, and Dream Eaters.

Rifts - Dimensional tears in the universe that are invisible to the average human. 4th dimensional beings however, have the ability to feel these rifts because if the overwhelming amount of pressure in a certain area. Some humans even have the ability to see the energy that comes off a rift and locate them that way. Also rifts have a time conversion and fair warning: I'm bad at math and it took me a long time to figure out this conversion. But, I believe what works is this:

It took me way to long to figure this out, so if it's wrong o well

Blood Borns - Someone is considered one when they are born in their proper dimension. So, if a 4th dimensional being is born in the 4th dimension, then they would be considered a Blood Born, if not they are simply a Being.

Beings are a classification for anything that's not human.

So...

Selestials - Are a species of rock beings that get their energy from the crimson earth they live on. Almost an "AU" of earth, where they reside is a wasteland where minerals and other elements are very abundant. They feed off of these minerals and make their very souls out of materials of the earth.

Ahgels - (I just came up with the name btw) These are "angels" who do everything angels aren't supposed to. They participate in every sinful act known to man and put under the guise that they are giving "heavenly experiences." There's also very little females who are Ahgels.

Demohns - Are "demons" that exists to assist anyone who's strong enough to resist Ahgels. Made up of mostly women, they help break the trance most fall into when being enticed by Ahgels, however this has made them a threat and they were sealed away.

Ghosts - Like the real world equallivent, ghosts are individuals who are deceased, but they are called a "ghost" when they're aimless on the physical plain. Ghosts have lost their purpose or don't know where their body is so they can pass on.

Spirits - Are souls that chose not to leave the physical plain for some reason. To haunt someone, because they don't want to leave or simply because they don't want to pass on.

Dream Eaters - These are creatures that consume dreams and turn them into a physical handicap. They are virtually extinct, but there's still information on them. Since dreams are just distorted memories, if a Dream Eater consumes a dream, they can trace it back to the memory it's attached to and then impose the importance of that memory onto the individual she took it from. Effectively "weighing them down."

There's also smaller things such as how dimensional beings are born outside their dimension. What are the exact abilities of a human who can see rifts. The different variations of rifts. How to locate a rift and so on, but that's small stuff, so I'll leave it at that!

Thank you for reading and I hope you write well today or tonight.

Thought that occurred to me recently

was kinda thinking about this when I saw Renee Rapp live recently-- I didn't know her visual vibe, I'd heard a few songs here and there but I hadn't really *seen* her, and her attire at Osheaga was really casual, a jersey (baseball/basketball?) and slacks. And that was so amazing! I couldn't help thinking, the work Billie Eilish has done for how women in pop music are allowed to dress is incredible. Seeing her up there all comfortable you just know that Billie walked in her oversized tops so that Renee in her slacks could run; Billie walked through all the critcisms about how she dressed slobbily and having to assert that she didn't owe anyone a display of skin, so that Renee could be comfortable and unquestioned running up and down the catwalk in front of 10,000 people. How iconic.

And I don't think we even realised at the time how much something as simple as letting Billie dress the way she as a (then-) 17-year-old teenager dressed, could end up meaning for a future generation of women in music.

Obviously there is still way to go, there were weirdos complaining about how 'plain' Dua Lipa's Glastonbury outfit was this year (in 2024!!), l have to ask, are you at Paris Fashion Week?? She is the musical HEADLINER of an entire day of music at one of the biggest music festivals in the world, and you can't grant her the space to exist as an artist, you have to moan about her dress not being excitingly revealing enough. There's work to do, it's still dismal out there. But the space Billie Eilish has created for a most ordinarily-dressed woman popstar is still heartening.

Loved the Warhammer episode of Secret Level. Especially SM vs. the cultists. You can feel every punch.

So I'm pretty sure Gondaira just slapped a large number on the weight and called it a day, but holy moly, if Taiyo is lifting 500kg then he must genuinely be superhuman. That's roughly 1,100 lbs, which is the equivalent to lifting a concert grand piano or an elephant calf with your bare back. For reference, a fully trained 5'7 man can only lift 230 lbs on average, and even an extremely muscular trained professional can only lift 1,000 lbs for a very short period of time, and definitely not on their back while doing pushups the way Taiyo seems to be doing.

That being said, the world record for heaviest backlift is 1,967 kg or 4,337 pounds, accomplished by a man named Louis Cyr in 1895, so it's not impossible for a human to lift that much weight—it's just incredibly difficult to do for long periods of time. Taiyo is certainty getting in some advanced training!

(Does this have much relevance to the story at large? No, but I did a lot of research and I didn't want it to go to waste *kicks at dirt*)

I love that Goliath is snoozing directly under Taiyo's intense workout. This is one of many moments where Goliath willingly hangs out with Taiyo, and the fact that he's sleeping directly under Taiyo implies that Goliath trusts Taiyo's capabilities, which is sweet. I like that he seems to be in Taiyo's corner in a passive, non-intrusive way.

(His choice of sleeping area is probably motivational for Taiyo, too—you wouldn't want to collapse when the family pet is directly below you!)
