But I will post again cuz it's cool
I really used to like chemistry back in midschool
I sometimes miss these classes
I mean, I still have math and physics
But with chemistry it would be just perfect
I sucked at chemistry in HS
It was interesting without the math parts I struggled with.
Although I would probably do a lot better now.
Math is easy
Most of it is boring
But at least it's easy and you don't have to put any effort into that
All the metals have a variable charge and readily give up electrons to become cations
So you don't have to really keep track of them
But the main group elements all have a charge they will take on to stabilize the atom.
I got straight 50s in math until I was 20 and went back to college to upgrade my shitty high school grades.
Once I learned programming, math was ezpz
Which was dumb that programming made more sense to me than math did and I ended up working backwards to git gud at math
What does "50s" mean?
Sometimes with math all it takes is just taking off from it and then relearning it.
Like a percentage scale?
Oh
Ok
A 50 is the minimum passing grade
It should be here too tbh
I literally learn math on tests
It's like
Okay, I don't know a shit about all this "combinatorics" thing, but I'll figure it out, right?
And it always works for me
Well that's good
But yeah learning about matter is fun.
And you end up learning about how it interacts with the fundamental forces and vice versa
Which is invaluable knowledge if you're OCD like me or just curious about the nature of the universe ^^
Universe is a horrible place tbh
Its cold dark and ugly.
But matter is cool
But there's starts to light it up
Well, isn't matter a part of the universe?
Like, quite an essential one
Definitely.
The downside is that those stars emite huge amounts of radiation and will boil you alive in space without a suit.
