I guess random, but i really like this alternative to the periodic table:
Because you can see how, after H and He, you do 2 loops of 8 and add the transition metals to the next 2 loops; then you add the lanthanides and actinides to the next 2 loops. And can easily see how the superactinides guy in the extended period table
So that’s what a plumbus is for.
I feel like theres got to be a way to do the same concept but have it be a bit less hideous.
You could make it look like a dick and balls if you did it right.
It’s hideous. I love it.
At first I was like WTF but honestly I kind of like it.
Future design for the USS Enterprise Z.
Periodic Cribbage Board… I kinda dig it.
What about the table of nuclides? IMO that’s the best way to list elements in a logically consistent manner. The trouble is, nature is a messy kraken that just won’t fit neatly into a shoe box. You can try to squeeze it in, but the lid won’t close because there are always a few tentacles sticking out.
For anyone who is wondering the alloy metal that is radioactive is Technetium #43. It is weird it has no stable isotopes, and is only one of two radioactive elements that proceed non radioactive elements. As far as I am concerned it exists only to be different.
is only one of two radioactive elements that proceed non radioactive elements
… what’s the other one??
Promethium #61 it is so rare that it really has no practical uses outside the lab. There is most likely less than a kilogram of the stuff in the entire planet.
And Kingpin stole it.
Tech-99 is good for radiotherapy drugs.
Tech n9ne is good for hard drugs
“super fancy protons” is special in its own
but boron is specialer.
Can you explain for an idiot.
A hydrogen ion doesn’t necessarily have a neutron, making it sort of a fancy proton, with a little friend somewhere around.
But why is boron specialer
“Boron” rhymes with “moron”, but we can’t say that anymore because it’s politically-incorrect, so we say “special”. /jk
Like a… Boron?

This one’s pretty good.
