Chemistry in current events: the connections between fertilizer, the Haber-Bosch process, and the Persian Gulf. Read this and your knowledge will exceed that of most of our current political leadership after only a few minutes of light work:
Concise and accessible description of yet another way this war will be costly for everyone.

Your name sir?

I just wish we could get
#ChemSky to be even 1/2 or 1/4 of #ChemTwitter
It’s no #ChemTwitter or even #ChemSky in terms of social posting but for papers and such it’s taking off with much higher engagement
One of the best BSky posts. Ever
For hilarious science 🧪 and #ChemSky satire definitely follow @inprep.bsky.social
Also - in keeping with the theme below in the QT - I put the same post on here and LinkedIn within a few min of each other

So much mixing stirring blending shaking pureeing emulsifying mulling muddling melding
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice they aren't.

*Diazidomethane Explosion*
Oof that’s far from ideal. Something reviewers or editors should notice
Thanks for finding and sharing Manfred
Is BzH actually benzaldehyde?
A tomahawk missile costs the taxpayers the same amount of money as one five-year major NIH research grant. Remember that every time they tell us one of those missed the target, blew up paintings of enemy aircraft or tanks, or was the fifth and unnecessary hit on the same target.
I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.
I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.
1/ Here's what I can share:
Asked a compound what it wanted to be
Antagonist, can’t you see
I wanna be best, the star of your screen
Maybe you can synthesize me?
Baby, you can drive my SAR
Yes, I'm gonna be a star

Apologies to The Beatles (Drive My Car)
We should make a list of bad abbreviations like:
IMe for iodomethane
HOMe for methanol
AcMe for acetone
DEAD for Diethylazo…(no that’s a good one)
STAPh: Sodium trialkyl ammonium phenoxide
(Ok just making stuff up now)

Not from today. But, this forever will be amazing!
This guy rocks!
(Sorry, not sot sorry.)
Because everyone needs to see something exceptional and happy.
And that’s how you get H2SiF6
(And why it’s so cheap)

“Humans 40,000 y ago developed a system of conventional signs…”
That are still being ignored by drivers everywhere
I wish - between Huw and Kyle and Laura and Mingji and Wuest labs I should go visit but man ACS week is B U S Y
