         <description><![CDATA[<div>The Coirolis effect is the reason of why people believe the toilet flushes in different directions, depending on which hemisphere it is ubicated. This effect explains the misadjusted speed of Earth’s rotation. Various Youtube and TikTok videos claim that this myth is true.<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <title>Which arguments disprove your myth?</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>“So there you have it! The toilet myth is busted, but don't blame the Coriolis effect. This effect is caused by the mismatched speed of the Earth's rotation: The equator is wider than the poles of the Earth, so points on the equator have to move faster to make one rotation in a day. If you threw something from the equator towards a pole, it wouldn't go straight, because the point you were throwing it from wouldn't actually be moving at the same speed as the point you were throwing to”.&nbsp;<br><br>(The Washington Post, Feltman A. 2015)<br>&nbsp;<br>Also, the speed of the earth's rotation isn’t enough to change the direction of the toilet’s water.&nbsp;<br><br></div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Cancer<br></strong><br></div><div>I think that the cancer horoscope is not similar to the person’s life, some of the aspects described don’t match with the person and, in my opinion, it is because the horoscopes give very general information. The things it says about her love life do match, and it is interesting how, while reading the horoscope, you may identify with something.<br><br></div><div><strong>Aries<br></strong><br></div><div>I think that what it says in the horoscope is not entirely true, because it says that she will have a difficult day, but for the moment she is very happy. Contrary to what the horoscope says, she has managed to have a good day, her love life is fine, which contradicts many of the generalizations that could be read.<br><br></div><div><strong>Gemini<br></strong><br></div><div>I don’t think horoscopes are real because these things can’t be proven. My partner’s sign is Gemini and I found interesting predictions about her future. She might pay attention to the information that may help her, like letting go of tasks she considers unfinished, but if she doesn’t relate to them, these affirmations are completely irrelevant.<br><br></div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>
