the friendful visiter meme, crudely edited to be Gravity Falls characters. Ford asks: "your entire home dimension destroyed? how? by what?" Bill replies: "a monsterrrrr." In the second panel, Ford looks at Bill with concern.

Image ID: A drawing of parallel Ford and Fiddleford in a faux magazine format. Both are dressed in business suits, Ford sitting in a desk chair with his legs politely crossed and a nervous look on his face. He's been tied up by computer cabling, his torso tied and hands bound in front of him. Behind him stands Fiddleford, who has a chipper look on his face while fastening the wire-knot. Title text above them reads "How do you manage decisions as a business partner?" "Why, it's easy!" End ID.

hey does anyone remember that weird photoshoot those guys who run the institute of oddology did back in the 80's?

(consider this a companion piece to that other fake magazine post)

also bonus uncropped interview blurb under the cut

Image ID: "Most would describe the 5-foot-gangly, Lennon-bespectacled Tennessee native Fiddleford McGucket as a "humble" soul- including himself, complete with a disarming smile- but is this unassuming nature all there is to the "eyes and ears" of the Institute of Oddology?"
"In a rare move for the normally reserved self-made millionaire and business partner, Fiddleford spoke with us during a press review for the Institute, which has just recently opened its doors to the public in the form of its "foundations of weird" tour, offering a guided glimpse into the origins of the institute."
"First things first- where did you get those glasses?"
"Ha! If I'd known this was a fashion interview I would've left my talking points at home. They're something my stylist picked out to replace my old pair- far cry from the ones I had held together with chicken wire as a kid. Was this a widely requested question or just a personal one?"
"You caught me! Personal."
"I'll get back to you after the interview then. Some things are just too confidential for the public, you understand."
"What's it like working with Stanford Pines? Is he just as mysterious off-camera as he is to us?"
"Stanford is only as mysterious as a good math problem, in my eyes. He's a little challenging, maybe even frustrating on a bad day, but satisfying to solve. Then again, not everyone gets a kick out of solving math problems."
End ID.

I think a lot of people haven't actually read Flatland so you may not realize A. What Bill's eye mutation means and B. What precisely Bill did to destroy his homeworld.

Bill's home isn't completely the same as Edwin Abbott's Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions (notably, women and men can be both polygons #feminism) but we can assume most of the mechanics are the same. The basic premise is that the world is 2D. Everyone perceives the world in a 1D way, along the plane. There's a part of Journal 3 that describes this pretty well.

Bill can see up to the stars because his eye is on the flat surface instead of on the side like everyone else, like this:

A diagram showing a flat red and a blue triangle, which have eyes on their side. In the middle is a yellow triangle (Bill) with an eye on the middle surface. The entire diagram is tilted slightly to show that it is flat.

(He's also slightly 3D, as we can see in the show.)

But there's one more important Flatland detail. The denizens of Flatland (and therefore likely Euclydia) do still have organs "inside" their bodies. Since there is no depth, they're just on the inner radius of their bodies. The 2007 Ehlinger movie adaptation shows that:

A screen shot from the 2007 Flatland film. It shows a square with organs drawn inside its radius.

If Bill wanted to "give his world a new perspective" and "show everyone what they were missing," he wanted to get everyone to look upward.

Meaning he probably tilted the entire world.

A drawing of a line and a drawing of the same line, tilted upwards.

Meaning everyone not only slid off of the plane, but all of their organs spilled out and everyone died.

...Hence "so much blood."

(The only issue with this is that it doesn't account for the number of times Euclydia is referred to have been burned ("saw his own dimension burn / misses home and can't return", he only has ashes leftover), but I'm sure the act of turning an entire dimension upwards expends a lot of energy.)
