gollark: I'm not some sort of snowologist. I would mostly be worried about, depending on which things stop rotating, the imminent hypervelocity winds everywhere and destruction of buildings.
gollark: Hmm, part of this is quite easy to do but I don't actually know how spheres work, worrying.
gollark: No, that's obviously much too low.
gollark: I have not bothered to calculate how close you would need to be to the poles to be roughly spared.
