Phones are a distraction that can divert attention of even kids who *want* to learn and will distract kids around the little asshole who wants to watch TikTok all through class instead of quietly reading a book, staring into space in La-La-Land, or doodling. Actions affect those around you.

I think we found an *excellent* example of Oppositional Defiant Disorder. The very *notion* of rules is anathema and an evil far worse than kids ruining their futures by having no education.
Napoleon the Chemist (@napochem.bsky.social) reply parent
So kids should just be jabbering off in class, then. Can't restrict their right to babble constantly, that's controlling behavior. Kids. Need. Rules. I know you hate to hear you need to follow rules, but YOU NEED TO FOLLOW RULES. RULES MAKE SOCIETY ACTUALLY FUCKING WORK.
Napoleon the Chemist (@napochem.bsky.social) reply parent
So, uh, since there's an explicit second amendment right to have guns, do you think kids should be allowed to be packing at school, too? There's no constitutional right to a fucking phone being on your person 24/7. Fuck, kids aren't allowed to *chew gum* during class. Phones are worse than that.

Anti-intellectualism is actually pretty central to authoritarianism of all flavors. People who want to destroy academia, the sciences, and medicine aren't necessarily fascists, but fascists almost universally are people who want to destroy academia, the sciences, and medicine.

I miss having a POTUS who didn't babble incomprehensibly. Obama's maybe not the most fair point of comparison, seeing as he's possibly the most skilled orator to hold office in my entire life, but we still could point to Clinton, Biden (even while tired and fighting his stutter), and Bush the Elder.

The better way to talk about molecules is chiral vs achiral. This is an achiral molecule. The 3 groups coming off the nitrogen are identical, meaning no chiral center. The way it's drawn may simply be out of convenience.
Napoleon the Chemist (@napochem.bsky.social) reply parent
The molecule is comprised entirely of sigma-bonds, which can rotate freely* about the axis. This is a 2-D representation of a 3-D molecule, so the way everything "points" is kinda arbitrary. *certain relative positions of non-bonding e- and functional groups is energetically better or worse
Napoleon the Chemist (@napochem.bsky.social) reply parent
Fluorine and carbon absolutely love each other. They fluorinate methyl groups in medicinal chemistry a lot of the time because it makes the molecule *more* stable. Just looking at it, bond lengths are gonna be very short. As a general rule, that means stable.

I've seen a statistic about missing persons reports quite often turning out to be a case the "missing person" being of sound mind and wanting to leave. I don't remember details off-hand, but it's good to remember abusers file them to try and get back their victims before sharing third-hand reports.
