@janusfox As a chemistry teacher this is one of the many things I have to deal with. I always include a "science exceptions" kind of thing with these ideas, but you have to consider that truly explaining expanded octets and electron domain geometry is all a bit much for year 8-10 periodic table...
Are you interested in rewilding? Do you have some spare time to study?
Open University are offering a free introductory course to rewilding. As far as I can tell it's available worldwide too.
It's self-study so you can go at your own pace: https://www.open.edu/openlearncreate/course/index.php?categoryid=1655
Boosts welcome.
@MFDOOMALLCAPS Cracking film. Another Bruce Campbell gem.
“[The study] identified no association between exposure to paracetamol in utero and a baby being autistic, having ADHD or an intellectual disability.”
To the surprise of absolutely no one.

@JenMsft Same
@jezlyn It made it into TV shows. I remember having look up what it was after it featured in an episode of Sex and the City!
@fesshole Funny, I bought a wedge pillow so I could sit in bed and read/drink coffee, used it more for the other activity!
accidentally rubbed my eye with wet pen ink on my hand and now i look like im about to start a revolution on a dystopian tv show
@jezlyn Had a Jones for him since Josh in Clueless...
@jezlyn New one is so good. My face and abs hurt after watching it.
#3188 Anyone Else Here
Anyone else watching this Youtube video in 1954? If so, my last trip definitely messed with the timeline.

@compoundchem I still have to teach this to Triple Science chemists and I have no idea why it is still in the curriculum...
@fesshole My mate empties hers onto house plants and then waters it in...
Super Mario Odyssey has the worst 2P joycon mechanic. My kid and I could not even be bothered to carry on looking for moons after the first boss. 1P mode is however, excellent. #SuperMarioOdyssey
@fesshole Trifle is the genuine worst dessert. The texture of "wet cake" is horrid.
@Tutanota Because my data is mine and no company should be taking it without consent and then using it to make more money.
