what really fucks me up is combining this with relativistic effects
like what if you had a rod 100,000 km long and you started rotating it around one end. does the other end exceed the speed of light? I know the answer has to be no, which means you're going to get all sorts of weird relativistic effects along the rod
If you put clocks on different parts of the rod, they'd get out of sync. It's weird.
