This diagram is way way way too conservative with the “see you on the other side” classification. To name a few: fluorine will literally make you catch fire instantly (if there’s more of it, you will basically get burned to a crisp before you can even blink), caesium will violently react with water in your mouth and produce so much hydrogen and heat, the whole mixture will instantly explode (in fact, this will not only be a usual, fire-like explosion, it will in addition to that be a so-called Coulomb explosion, which makes the situation even worse)

Not in this way, I mean the graphs are corresponding, but what is presented is also a flipped logarithmic function, so calling it a logarithmic function does not simplify anything

The initial part is a flipped exponential function, which is characteristic of a finite population that wants to vote yes, and each day a fixed part of them finds out about the petition. This makes sense, because the more people there are yet to find out, the more people vote each day. Sadly, it also shows that the number of people who care was too small for the petition to pass (the horizontal value the graph converges on). HOWEVER, afterwards the graph started rising again which strongly suggests more and more new (previously consciously uncaring) people are being convinced to vote, which means there is still hope.

How did we end up in this timeline? The politicians are seriously saying things that were once considered satire

This is absolutely true and sad, though I get a lot of free electronics to dismantle by rummaging through trash. People have no appreciation of the value of “used” items that either work perfectly fine or have a minor issue that prevents them from working but is easily fixable, e.g. a broken cable (I have many working devices that were thrown away because the cable is severed, which I could easily fix). I think only proper education in this regard will improve things long term.

That is true, but a “debilitating mental disorder” means completely different things to every person. So, you should go to therapy if you feel you need it, which means that trying to decide for someone makes no sense at all.

You can distill the water using solar energy, even without converting it to electricity beforehand, which insanely increases the efficiency. Also, it just requires some initial materials, and then the process basically runs itself. It absolutely could be done at a large scale, especially in places where there is much sun and much saltwater (equatorial coastlines), but the process is veeery slow and there is not enough demand for freshwater (yet) to warrant the construction of gigantic solar stills. As a bonus, global warming increases the efficiency of the process AND the process cools the Earth down somewhat (separating the water and dissolved stuff is a thermodynamically entropy-decreasing process).

It is so prevalent that this type of bigotry actually has its own name: specieism

What do you mean you can’t? Sure, it takes an unnecessary amount of work, which is fucking stupid, but it is still absolutely doable at home (in most cases)

In fact, we, as humanity, don’t really know either

Thank you for typing that out!

stop I beg you 😭

Don’t call me out like that! (also 2n3904 and 2n3906 my beloved)

Because that’s the point
