Non-round stuff in space of a sufficient mass does tend to shift back to being round over the course of millions of years, so absence of non-roundness is not proof that parts of it were not ripped away at some point or other. Uranus is a ga

My wife and I deep cleaned the house then made a visual task board with different small (less than 30m) chores assigned to one or the other, on rotation, on a weekly basis. The house has never been less than acceptably clean (to a moth
