Was it though? I mean, if it wasn't for ambitious alchemists, we may have not learned of things we have today. Chinese alchemists were trying to make an elixir for eternal life and ended up creating black powder, that's not stupid. That's science at its core. They observed, they thought on what they saw, they thought on what could be, they questioned what is, they experimented, they produced results, they went over their results, they learned. Scientific thoughts are supposed to be able to fail, it must be falsifiable, otherwise it's just absolute fiction.
We can make gold in particle colliders at rates exceeding 1 million atoms per second, which may sound impressive, but in order to get a moll of gold (which would weigh ~197g), even if we could produce 10 million atoms per second, the machine would have to be running for ~6*10^17 seconds, which is about 20 billion years, and that's longer than the Universe has been around.
Extremely. Adding protons to a nucleus is extremely difficult as both have the same electric charge and repel each other (think of trying to connect two magnets by the same pole and you get an idea of the kind of force, but multiplied by a factor), not to mention how difficult It is to get a source of protons in the first place.
I ~~hate~~ love to be that guy, but you would actually need to remove three protons from lead to end up with gold. And a couple of neutrons, otherwise the core won't be stable.
The others have already pointed out that it needs a shitload of energy (as we say in science). To make the process economically viable you need to get cheap energy. Try to find an unsupervised outlet at work or the airport and run your particle accelerator there.
Always happy to help!
Yup. I think (recall) that it causes all bodily fluids to drain from the rodent, leaving those dessicated corpses one might find in the walls. Good for not stinking, but probably bad (painful) for the poor creature.*
*A quick google provided the following facts:
1. "causing internal bleeding that results in a slow and painful death" (that's not good...), and
2. Apparently the use of anticoagulents such as wafarin is declining because rodents are becoming immune. As well it is becoming restricted in some geographical areas because of wildlife such as birds and squirrels can easily eat it and die.

Dihydrogen monoxide will KILL you if you inhale it, yet the two-thirds of the Earth is COVERED in it -- and human-caused climate change means MORE of the Earth will be covered in it, Real Soon Now! **Call your government representative TODAY and DEMAND that dihydrogen monoxide be BANNED!**
>There are more atoms in a molecule of water than there are stars in the entire solar system.
There's way too much to unpack in that statement if you're the average 90-IQ person in this Country, but you full-well knew that when you posted it.
Correct. And to top it off plastics are polymerized, so any given piece of commercial plastic has a massive range in both the amount of molecules within the plastic and the chain lengths of each plastic molecule.
Not to mention what the hell this meme even means by plastic. There are many different kinds of "plastic" and the way they're using it isn't even technically correct, they're most likely referring to thermoforms
Yes yes we all saw these jokes coming.
The real question is where do I find a butter knife with those little holes on the backend like a cheese grader that makes little butter curlies?
I used to have one, it looks brilliant in theory but is basically useless in practice. It doesn't work if the butter is too cold to spread, and isn't necessary when the butter is warm enough to be spreadable.
This is outdated advice; butter is fine in moderation. Olive oil is just even better. But the thing is butter is resistant to oxidation which makes it more reliable in high-heat cooking; with olive oil high heat creates some toxic compounds.
\*Grass-fed\* butter (non grass-fed is not that good) also has a much better 6:3 ratio than vegetable oils: [https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/optimize-omega-6-omega-3-ratio](https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/optimize-omega-6-omega-3-ratio)
If you scroll down you'll see a bar graph. From there it's clear that olive oil has the best balance between low saturated fats (which is fine, but just not the best-in-class) and low Omega-6. Butter has the lowest Omega-6, which comes at the expense of lower MUFAs. What you want is low Omega-6 and more MUFAs; butter is clearly better than a lot of vegetable oils, but olive oil is just better. However, you should sooner eliminate oils like soybean oil before thinking about eliminating butter.
Personally I'd always prioritize EV olive oil, unless it's high-heat cooking, then I'd choose either butter or avocado oil.
That is absolutely not true. Alcohol is not fine in moderation; even very minor amounts of alcohol ingestion is associated with increased health risks. That is not true for butter; some amount of butter has zero association with health risks. That is because alcohol has a toxic chemical compound naturally, and no amount of it is safe for the liver. Butter has chemical compounds - specifically saturated fats - that are only a problem when you consume too much of it.
Alcohol is something you should simply consume exactly zero of. Butter is something you need to consume in a way that balances against the rest of your fat consumption portfolio. One is black and white, one isn't. One is an on-off switch. The other has to be considered in a wider context of: are you balancing your Omega6-3 ratio? Are you consuming enough DHA, which can only be efficiently acquired through animal compounds? Are you consuming enough Omega9, which is best acquired through plant-based seeds and oils? Are the fats you are consuming satiating for your diet?
The pathway of acetaldehyde in the body is well understood and it's well understood how it's carcinogenic. Meanwhile, the conversation around nutrition in general is still being deepened by nuance every day: [https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0735109720356874?via%3Dihub](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0735109720356874?via%3Dihub) (this is not cherrypicking; JACC is top field journal).
I mean if you want to argue about shared ingredients, the classic example is salt being made out of sodium, which explodes in water, and chlorine, a poisonous gas.
My fucking dad says this all the time and it pisses me off. I usually fire back saying that salt is one atom away from being a poison gas and a metal that explodes in water.
The people that make and share this shit are the same people that bitch and moan about chemicals.
Not specific chemicals. Just chemicals. They feel if they can't pronounce it, it's bad.
Things like polyacetylenes, falcarinol, falcarindiol, pyrrolidine, hydroxymellein, methoxymellein, eugenin, trimethoxybenzaldehyde, and acetoxy-heptadeca.
They sound super-duper scary.
But those are all chemical compounds found in regular ass carrots.
The people that say this shit are always, always, always either trying to sell you something or they have bought into something.
And they don't have the basic, grade school science education to know that chemicals are everything outside of base elements.
That's how the margarine manufacturers make their product. They buy a couple gallons of yellow paint from the Sherwin Williams down the street, then they mix one part paint with one part molecules, stir vigorously, salt to taste, and out comes margarine.
I got into two day debate with this guy on his Facebook page because he was "explaining the benef6" of raw food. I showed so much evidence on how, especially raw meat, is actually incredibly unhealthy for us. It ended with me calling his "education " worth as much as a fart in a tornado.
This is an old fact, at the time it was hydrogened fat like the animal based saturated fat (butter)...
Now its mainly plant based non-hydrogeneted fat, but fat still bad for health...

Wait until they find out what’s in salt
Chlorine gas and a metal that EXPLODES when water touches it.
MY GOD! AND YOU SCIENCE PEOPLE LET US EAT THAT?!
Why did I read this in Peter Griffin's voice
I'm basically Peter Griffin
They let us drink a substance one atom away from becoming a toxic teeth whitening agent
Alright that's it, something has to be done about these science witches!
A statistical 100% of people who ingest dihydrogen monoxide develop cancer if they don't first die of something else
Something must be done about big H2O pushing this on us!!!!
Dihydrogen monoxide is present in all victims of drowning
This is indisputable
Damn hydric acid
explosive 😋
And it's a fucking rock.
jesus, marie, they're minerals.
Yes and lead is 1 proton away from gold so buy my old ass pipes for a small fortune
Butter is made out of atoms, but so is the hair on my ass
But how well does your ass hair spread?
I was going to make a joke about "spreading cheeks" but I don't want to reread the TOA and get banned.
TOA? Table of Asses?
Terms of arguments
What happen to calling it consent?
I'm sure ANY joke I make about THIS would smack me with the ban stick.
I thought you said agreement and I can’t read
Don't worry, I'll spread them for you.
Thanks! You are a gentleman and a scholar.
Oh. Yes. Sorry. *hangs up* that was a woman. Very low voice, probably a smoker.
You can get banned without needing to read it! ;-)
>how well does your ass hair spread? Not as well as his ass
Adam ass hair!! Marvels newest ant-ass-man
[Ted Lasso](https://youtu.be/pnP4KbfbxJ4?si=AYJQtU8DAqM-c00p)
You just need to add a few protons, how hard it could be?
Just one more proton bro, I promise we'll fix the periodic table
geniune question, how hard would it be (idk chemistry at all so just interested lol)
Its been done, but the process requires too much energy to be profitable
It would cost a large fortune to make that small fortune.
Just like me buying and selling stocks.
Yep, so basically alchemy is 100% scientifically possible, it was just stupid for the ancients to attempt, lol.
Was it though? I mean, if it wasn't for ambitious alchemists, we may have not learned of things we have today.

Its like building a skyscraper to catch a bird. Lol

So what are we waiting for? Let's start making some gold!
The best time to make a gold particle collider was 20 billion year ago, but the second best time is right now
The second best time would have been 19.9999999 billion years ago.
LESS TALKING! MORE COLLIDING!
Extremely. Adding protons to a nucleus is extremely difficult as both have the same electric charge and repel each other (think of trying to connect two magnets by the same pole and you get an idea of the kind of force, but multiplied by a factor), not to mention how difficult It is to get a source of protons in the first place.
I got you with the protons. Just remove the electron from a hydrogen atom and you get protons. Easy 😉
I have a good feeling this idea will surely explode in the scientific community!
You just fold them in, David
![gif](giphy|idljdFb6h52OwuoKhQ|downsized)
If you buy this person's lead pipes, I'll sell you a jar of protons for $1000. Get ready to make that bag, bitch!

Ayo your answer must be buried under all the others but thanks for enlightening me!
Turning plastic into margarine is the real “Magnum Opus” alchemists should be striving for.
Found the alchemist
Does anyone know where I can buy any spare protons?
Just wait some time it will turn into gold eventually
Margarine is made from the same subatomic particles as rat poison!!!!!!
So THAT'S why my rat poison tastes like butter!
If your rat poison tastes like butter it's probably expired. I'd recommend getting a new bottle.
Pro tip^
If a poison is expired, is it more or less effective?
depends on what it’s made of
What if its made of butter?
Then it’s probably not poison
But that would explain the taste, at least...
But then it can become poison.
I can't believe it's not warfarin!
Fun fact, rat poison (warfarin) is used as a blood thinner for those that receive mechanical heart valves….
Yup. I think (recall) that it causes all bodily fluids to drain from the rodent, leaving those dessicated corpses one might find in the walls. Good for not stinking, but probably bad (painful) for the poor creature.* *A quick google provided the following facts: 1. "causing internal bleeding that results in a slow and painful death" (that's not good...), and 2. Apparently the use of anticoagulents such as wafarin is declining because rodents are becoming immune.

The exact same quarks
Strange
I hear its made of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Which is in nuclear waste so its like you're eating radioactive waste
Rats are made of some of the same things as rat poison!
99% of people sharing this meme don’t know what a molecule is
You're a molecule
Your mom's a molecule.
See? They do know what molecules are.
That's like the opposite of a " your mum is so fat, she ..." Joke
Specifically she's a carbohydrate
There are more atoms in a molecule of water than there are stars in the entire solar system.

Mol et Cule is the French version of Mort and Ricky is it not?
How very molecule of you to say.
Try our EXTRA BIGASS TACO! Now with more MOLECULES
It’s been a long time since I took chemistry, but I’m pretty sure saying something is one molecule away from something else is completely meaningless.
"If my grandmother had wheels she would've been a bike"
I know what this is from and I appreciate you
If a frog had wings he wouldnt bump his ass when he hopped
Table salt is one molecule away from CHLORINE!!! It's poisonous!!
one atom away to be exact
NA

It's not completely meaningless, but the message the image is trying to convey is stupid.
Water is one atom away from hydrogen peroxide, so these people should just stop drinking water
Maybe they should start drinking hydrogen peroxide.
Water is made out of explosives used as rocket fuel. Do you really want to drink that ???
And see what water does to metal! IT CORRODES THE METAL. HOW CAN I GIVE THIS TO MY KIDS???
Every year, thousands of people die from inhalation of dihydrogen monoxide. So why do they allow it in our food and beverages?
Yes yes we all saw these jokes coming. The real question is where do I find a butter knife with those little holes on the backend like a cheese grader that makes little butter curlies?
Finally someone asking the important questions.
https://www.microplane.com/butter-blade
butter curlies lol
Why is there nobody talking about this incredible perforated butter knife? Never seen it before.
I used to have one, it looks brilliant in theory but is basically useless in practice. It doesn't work if the butter is too cold to spread, and isn't necessary when the butter is warm enough to be spreadable.
That is THE question for this thread. Nothing interesting about the post, but that knife is amazing.
Also, starch, cellulose, and chitin are all glucose polymers, so eating a potato is basically the same as as eating a log. /s
David Avocado Wolfe is a loon.
Is he still around? I thought he faded into obscurity years ago.
He is unfortunately. He posts these super low effort pictures that are meant to appeal to the most people. He’s a run of the mill engagement farmer.
Gross. But on the bright side, I guess it means my social media filters are doing their job.
And he panders to the anti-vax anti-"woke" crowd.
I thought this was a Food Babe post at first
There's a name I haven't heard for a loooong time.
My name is one word away from being Carl
Hi Car
Me on my way to take one molecule out of my margarine
WATER is one atom away from hydrogen peroxide. Bon appétit!
You really shouldn't eat margarine on a daily basis though.
I prefer butter myself
[удалено]
I'm too slippery
isn't margarine just solid vegetable oil?
Hydrogenated oil. It's really unhealthy. Full-fat, grass-fed butter is the way to go
thank you so much
[удалено]
Yeah but butter’s nice

I don't think there's any reason to eat margarine. Butter is both healthier and better tasting
I use it occasionally to cook with. Butter burns in scenarios where margarine does not.
It's cheaper
I don’t trust atoms, they make up everything.
Where do I find that butter knife
Just wait until she hears about enantiomers.
I’ll be sure not to spill my bowl full of molecules into my margarine then.
I mean if you want to argue about shared ingredients, the classic example is salt being made out of sodium, which explodes in water, and chlorine, a poisonous gas.
Table salt is half explosive and half toxic gas.
My fucking dad says this all the time and it pisses me off. I usually fire back saying that salt is one atom away from being a poison gas and a metal that explodes in water.
Person who made the meme should start drinking hyrogen peroxide. Its H2O2, clearly just water with some extra oxygen, gotta be good for you.
The people that make and share this shit are the same people that bitch and moan about chemicals. Not specific chemicals. Just chemicals. They feel if they can't pronounce it, it's bad.

Oxygen is only 237 atoms away from plutonium! Don't breath!
Ok sure it's bs but I think we can all agree that margarine is terrible
Guys, the main ingredient in Coca Cola is just *one atom* away from being super corrosive hydrogen peroxide!
yeah but check out that dope-ass butter knife, never seen one like that!
ok thats a sick butter knife tho
"One molecule" Water is one molecule away from nitroglycerin.
coal is made of the same stuff as diamonds!!!🤑🤑🤑
Humans share half their DNA with a banana and 97% with rats.
Air is one molecule away from being carbondioxide
Wait till this guy learns about Nial Red and the food stuffs he makes from gloves and toilet paper
This says a lot about the state of american education.
Yeah, and we share half of our genetic traits with bananas, so we’re all half banana.
The maker of this meme shares 98% of their DNA with monkeys
So what you’re saying is… paint is almost edible
OMG, mom says this crap. Peroxide is only one atom away from water, but don’t try drinking 8-8oz glasses a day.
That butter knife is kinda neat though
That's how the margarine manufacturers make their product. They buy a couple gallons of yellow paint from the Sherwin Williams down the street, then they mix one part paint with one part molecules, stir vigorously, salt to taste, and out comes margarine.
How is no one blown away by that cool knife thing? What is it? Like a cheese grater for butter. I want
Water (H2O) is one atom away from being deadly poisionous (H2O2)
water is only one molecule away from hydrogen peroxide, and you wouldn't drink hydrogen peroxide?
That's a sweet butter knife though.
And water is just one atom away from hydrogen peroxide!
That knife is pretty cool
And water is both nuclear waste and one molecule away from being hydrogen peroxode
Margarine still sucks
Margarine might as well be plastic considering how foul it is
I got into two day debate with this guy on his Facebook page because he was "explaining the benef6" of raw food. I showed so much evidence on how, especially raw meat, is actually incredibly unhealthy for us. It ended with me calling his "education " worth as much as a fart in a tornado.
Im more interested in this butterknife with a spaghettification tool
Your body is 60% water. That does not make you soup.
I'm made from the same kind of protons as crack cocaine
Wait until they find out what cancer is made of...
These are the people that complained about Hg in vaccines. It's like complaining about sodium metal Na in table salt.
Encyclopedia says other wise OP
Margarine is still garbage tho
The same molecules in my Johnson are also in your mom’s mouth!
and methanol has one carbon atom less than alcohol
Cool butter knife though.
Wth is an ingredient? We are on a mulecular level over here.
I low-key want that butter knife though
This is an old fact, at the time it was hydrogened fat like the animal based saturated fat (butter)... Now its mainly plant based non-hydrogeneted fat, but fat still bad for health...
Am I the only one impressed by this knife? I've never seen anything like it
And water is one atom away from Peroxide. Wanna quit that too?
Water is only one molecule away from hydrogen peroxide
You share 99% of the same genes with a chimpanzee, that doesn't mean you're gonna hire one to babysit.
Water is an atom away from pure hydrogen, which is explosive, and hydrogen peroxide, which is toxic.
I NEED the knife in the picture, would save so much time trying to let the butter thaw out
Water is 3 molecules away from hydrogen peroxide and shares its core molecules with almost every toxin known to man
We share 60% of our DNA with a banana so I am 60% banana
Both you and that margarine are made of stardust. Cannibal.
Table salt is made of two things that would kill you on their own.
Quick someone tell them water is in many industrial chemicals so these morons die faster
