it’s like the android-asking-is-this-a-pigeon-while-reaching-their-hand-out-to-a-butterfly-meme but instead of an android it’s Organic Chemists and instead of a butterfly it’s Literally A Single Dot and instead of a pigeon it’s Methane
i think it’s sad that alchemical symbols were left behind with alchemy
i mean the fact that they’re called alchemical helps but like
they’re so much cooler than other ways of expressing chemicals, but they aren’t standardized and since they haven’t been updated in a while there are a bunch of outdated things like “alcohol” which we now know includes ethanol, isopropanol etc.
BUT NOOO we can only have IUPAC names (designed around english) and chemical formulas (designed around the latin alphabet) instead of something that would objectively (i know i’m not using it “right”) be cooler and more linguistically neutral

i’ve always used it as a discourse marker

Europe needs a better flag, the 12 star one is kinda boring. I suggest a modern version of one of these:
1920 European flag proposal, with every countries flag arranged radiating out from the center. I think this looks tuff, it just needs to be reworked with modern flags.

1951 flag of Europe proposal by Salvador de Madariaga. It has the geographic location of each capital as a star in a constellation (the big star is Strasbourg). Again, I think this looks really cool, it just needs to be reworked with the new capitals.

1951 flag proposed by Hamries. The Es stand for Europe.

Which flag do you think is best? There’s a whole list of potential ones here, check it out: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Europe
