I would take a look at DNA as there are 4 nucleobases

Adenine (A)
Thymine (T)A
Guamine (G)
Cytozine (C)

However they can only form specific pairs such as

G-C or C-G
and
A-T or T-A

Bonds are Hydrogen

I have cc'd @freemo in as he may be able to expand further,

@freemo @ljrk

Indeed, I understand what Polycule means now. With chemistry, we also have isomers (same atoms, different structure) and stereo isomers, which (if I remember correctly) 2 molecules one of which is a mirror image of the other. But if I understand it the properties are different too.

@gleick

I agree, can it also depend on your health, having a weak immune system may impact how a vaccine works.

This seems interesting

Now that Musk is part of the US government, could this not be construed as political interference?

@bonifartius so

the part about psychiatric medication being of influence in school shootings also has evidence to back it up.

While this may be the case, I get the impression that some of these school shootings are by people who have been bullied and abused by others at he school, so perhaps one solution is about creating better cultures in schools where everyone feels valued and welcome and this culture includes teaching the students to respect each other.

I can understand why people snap, find a weapon such as a gun and blast former schoolmates to death for what they were subjected to, and shoot a few teachers for allowing it to happen, people can only take so much before they simply snap.

@ljrk

Well covalent bonds are electrons that are shared between atoms in a molecule, ionic bonds are where a Element such as Sodium Na, loses and Electron to become an ion Na+ + e- then this electron joins another atom eg Chlorine Cl- to form an ionic bond NaCl.

I am not sure if this is quite what you mean though.

@bonifartius

While I agree, and am aware of chemicals that can mimick hormones. I am concerned about the idea it turns people trans, it seems that the news / science about these chemicals is simply being weaponised against the trans community, or probably will be given what has been discussed here before.

We need to follow actual science, so it seems that one the one hand RFK is anti-vax, and the other he talks about the above, which has science backing, it will end up with science being less trusted, which is a real danger and possibly on the agenda so they can push forward some of what appears to be in project 25.

Well done USA trump supporters

The most outrageous health claims peddled by the US' new anti-vaxxer health secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr: From 'chemicals could make you trans' to the 'dead worm' in his brain

I am just sharing this to highlight what is to come, so that maybe we can come up with some good responses backed by science.

I just wonder if their columist Boris Johnson who is a huge fan of Trump, and backed the idea that the Stormy danels trial was a stitch up, will still back trump who made this pick for health minister.

@indivisibleteam

I am from the UK so don't have a representitive, what we DO have here is a freedom of information act, I am sure the US has something similar so you may be able to also use that, surely it is in the public interest to know if the Attorney General of your country has a significant criminal past accusations or otherwise. l

@br00t4c

Would that depend on if he also won the house and the senate? As winning, both would allow a president to push through more of what they want.

What is it with the church, any other organisation would be SHUT DOWN

@micchiato @kcarruthers @Tattered

In one sesne the Dems have two years to get their act together so they can take back the Senate ( i think ) which should make it much harder for Trump to get any laws passed, after that they have 2 years to go further and win the next election, they will then spend 4 years simply undoing all the damage that can be undone.

Of course in 4 years there may not be an election as Trump has suggested or implied that there may not be an election.

@euwatchers

There should be a record of the phone call from BOTH ends surely.

@bascule

I am sure that Jesus promoted tolerance and respect for ones neighbour. He taught forgiveness over retribution.

@davidpnice @randahl

Regardless of if you like or dislike Kamala Harris, she was very clear that the election was a choice, those who didn't bother to vote surely can't complain as to the outcome of the election, a vote for an independent candiate is to reject the main parties. While this could be argued it hands the win to a particular side, it does show up that x percent have simply rejected the other two choices.
