I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.
And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

The single most effective way to advance trans rights is to vote for democrats in every election for the foreseeable future. Full stop.
Anyone who tells you differently does not actually have trans rights as their main goal.

And thatβs not to heap praise on W. He was not good. But somehow he was still vastly better than the present monstrosity, and thatβs how far weβve fallen.

Itβs appalling how even W handled that so much more gracefully than the orange nightmare handles the slightest criticism. W said something to the effect that he wasnβt angry and didnβt feel threatened. T would be screaming for the guy to be turned into pulp.

In chemical reactions (i.e. not nuclear), yes. Atoms were named βatomsβ because they were long thought to be indestructible (βa-β as in βnotβ plus βtom-β as in βcutβ in all kinds of surgery).
Of course you just get the element back and still have to remake the thing from it, like recasting medals.

This is your reminder that Hungarian-Jewish scientist George de Hevesy dissolved two Nobel Prizes in aqua regia to keep them out of the hands of the Nazis.
He then left the dissolved solution on his shelf and fled to Sweden.
(After the war he un-dissolved the gold and the prizes were re-cast.)
