New research finds Earth's core slowed so significantly it reversed course, scientists not exactly sure of effects

This scare-monger article is such cr@p.

The solid inner core sometimes spins a little faster than the rest of the Earth, and sometimes spins a little slower (the changes are very gradual, and are related to the Earth's magnetic field). For many recent decades it is believed to have been spinning a little faster.

All that has happened is that the inner core has slowed somewhat, and instead of spinning a little faster than the rest of the Earth, is now apparently spinning a little slower. That's all. It might affect the Earth's magnetic field a little bit.

IT HAS NOT "REVERSED COURSE". What a load of poo.

“ Somehow humans caused this. Ask a leftist, they’ll tell you.”

But you missed the best part - the Left already knows how to fix it, but that will require much higher taxes and fees, and regulations that strictly regulate your choices…for the common good, of course. Oh, and pay no attention to those Leftist pols and their big donors getting rich off of the solution, and not being constrained in any way by those regulations - after all, they are your betters, and they’re saving the planet.

The research discovered the inner core began slowing down around 2008...

And just who were elected President and Vice President then?

I hate when that happens. The earth spinny thing changing directions. spills my drink.

It’s reference points. Their axis of rotation is not the same, and more importantly, they are spheroids, not cylinders, so a significant wobble can occur at times as the flow becomes unstable.

Danish seismologist Inge Lehmann discovered the ball-shaped inner core in 1936.

He visited it?

In other news, ‘scientists’ have determined that the Global IQ began decreasing the day Joe Biden was born. This phenomenon continued, and then increased as Joe Biden procreated

I plan 5o reverse the effects of this reversing action by sleeping backerds at night and waking up the previous day

Exactly. I think it highly unlikely that there's a sharp delineation between a "solid spheroid" inner core and an enclosing "viscous liquid" outer core. I.e. it's probably not like a billiard ball in a bag of pudding, but more like a lump of chocolate in a bag of chocolate that has softened. And as you say, the axes of rotation are very likely skewed.

The idealized drawing is just a simplified artist's conception. Nothing is that clearly defined in reality.

Does anyone really “trust the science” used to discover things like this? I don’t. I don’t know that anyone really knows, except God Almighty, how our planet is constructed and how it works.
