this is why all birds is brain damage

# If I get a planet, and then I make an ocean on the planet, and the water is all the same temperature and space is insulating somehow and the planet is insulating too and there's nothing to heat or cool the water,
does the ocean get hot at the bottom because of pressure? Or does it get cold at the bottom, like our ocean? Or does the temperature even out? Or does it keep on convecting?

A bird wouldn't even be able to answer that.

# To make a Ragoo of Pigs-Ears
TAKE a quantity of pigs-ears, and boil them in one half wine and the other water; cut them in small pieces, then brown a little butter, and put them in, and a pretty deal of gravy, two anchovies, an eschalot or two, a little mustard, and some slices of lemon, some salt and nutmeg: stew all these together, and shake it up thick. Garnish the dish with barberries.

# also to answer to your question I need to clarify some things
Does the rotation of the planet move the water? Are there tidal forces at play? If so, how many moons does this planet have and what gravitational pull do they have on the water?

# well if the water remains perfectly still and there is no way for the water to heat up or cool down then I guess it would remain in a constant state
Was the water all at an even temperature when the ocean was formed? Is the ocean completely still?
(I helped save b3ta! gronkpan @vomitinglarry.bsky.social, Wed 3 Feb 2010, 2:57, archived)
# Yes, and yes.
What I reckon happens is that first the pressure means it heats up a little bit at the bottom, and that warm water stays down there because it's being compressed, and the heat evens out after a bit, and there you are, it's just a lot of water and it's slightly warmer all through than when I put it there.

Which means our ocean is only cold at the bottom because things make it hot in places and that water rises.

# Our ocean isn't uniformly cold at the bottom though
I mean there are all sorts of volcanic activities going on down there.

# See, the earth gets hotter as you go deeper
and the atmosphere gets colder as you go higher, but the ocean is the other way up, and that bothered me. Actually there's probably some bit of the upper atmosphere that's really hot, it's called the hotosphere, birds don't go there, they don't even know about it.

# But the bottom of the ocean is still the top of the crust, which is the coldest part of the earth.
The crust is really very thin, like the skin on milk or the rind of an apple.

# No, wait. I don't mean that the crust is thin, I mean that our bit (ocean, houses, etc) is thin.

# The ocean is still the wrong way up
I'm not going to overlook this aberration just because it's thin.

# I made some LEGO models based on an inversion of that.
For a planet where the bottom layer of water is way hotter than the air or surface water.
