cant stop thinkin bout charles and erik readin together on the couch but instead of reading with him charles is listening to eriks thoughts while he reads. Live mind commentary ……..

Forgot to add that a higher percent of this batch reacted in the cool skippy, repulsed way to the magnet, so maybe whatever change happened to it was actually a good thing? It also could simply be that there was a slight difference in the initial composition tho, so who knows. There's even a moderate to very good chance that i mixed up the vials because i'm a stupid idiot and i actually used the Fe(II) vial (i used a very small amount of FeCl2 instead of the CuCl2) which would obviously explain the colour change observed and why the colour change didn't impact reaction (well, it actually would have since the Fe(II) samples that were cooked immediately, without the chance to go to Fe(III), showed no magnetic response). The response of this substance is still very strongly diamagnetic, not para- or ferro- magnetic, so that's somewhat of a good sign. AFAIK, if this is in fact Fe(III), then that would make sense to be doing something somewhat similar but possibly to a greater degree than Cu if it's true that the Cu is in the 3+ state. Obviously if this was in fact an iron compound, that means that i wasn't successful in reproducing a copper based stp superconductor (or other funky magnetic substance), but that's an issue for future me (once i find the other vial that i brought with me that either contains the Fe(II) doped suspension or the thing i had intended to cook 2 days ago which is the Cu based one.

(potential) Superconductor updates:

Replicated it in the dorms despite the fact that the suspension had turned an awful yellow-red colour (it was a faint blue-white). Unfortunately, despite putting a lid on it, it doesn't seem to work 20 hours later. Also, this was a mix brought from home more than 2 weeks ago. The fact that the amount of time in water doesn't seem to show any difference indicates to me that the most important part is in the cooking. Alas, i have no copper or calcium chloride despite begging the chem department. So, that'll be needed for future experiments. Gonna try to get them from the uni again but i may have to buy it sadly. It's very strange that the colour was so dramatically changed and yet the effect was largely unchanged. That seems to indicate that the colourant (presumably a copper ion) was not in fact a necessary part? And it's not like it remains unchanged afterwards either, with the earlier samples, after i heated it it would be off-white whereas now the whole substance is an awful yellow-green-brown colour. It may be solely working with Ca2+, Al3+, and B3+. IDK tho. It'd still be kinda weird to me, if there was no help by the copper at all. I gotta get some calcium chloride first and test to see if i really do also need the copper. Or even if i can replicate it at all.

At the very least i saved a few drops of the suspension in an airtight container so that if worst comes to worst and i can't make it anew, i can (hopefully) run a mass spec and a few analytical chem tests (assuming the chem lab folks let me). Ideally though i'd just make it anew sometime soon. I can very super easily and definitively rule out iron contamination this time as any sort of possible factor since the cooking step took place in an aluminium container (the cut out bottom of a thoroughly cleaned out monster energy can). I was pretty sure it wasn't iron contamination (like, it was doing the wrong effect from what one would assume from iron anyways), but now i'm very confident.

I feel like there was something else important to say, but idk what it is.

Last thought on the matter: I will hopefully very soon be able to have more resources because i'm gonna be in conversation with one of the professors at my school who's an expert in magnetism and also ceramics and her research group is currently focusing on things that aren't publicly disclosed, but vaguely about inorganic "magnetically and electrically interesting" compounds. Also her students say she's the nicest person in the world, so i'm double excited. Anyway, so, tuesday afternoon, i'll either be infantilized, found to be not quite up to spec, or be given a great opportunity.

I think the problem. the problem is that I have always been afraid of not being invited into the inner circle. and am always wanting to be part of the inner circle. inner circle being the circle of love and companionship and communion. of course being a TCK and a bit of a sheltered homeschooled oddball child has nudged this further along over the years. but I didn't realise how STRONG that desire still burned. to actually be wanted.

Moving to college tmr guys …………

didn't know you were a dorm warrior cheye, how' was 'd you like the experience of living away from home?

(general) unfortunately i didnt have a cawr then, and also the kitchen was communal (and had the washer and dryer units in it) so I tried to avoid being spotted in there due to the Embarrassment and Shame of being alive, so it was really not too different than living at home where my room is my entire world...just a bit more quiet and peaceful loafing.

(specific) the college i attended is surrounded by water so was nice to walk around the few times I did. I saw Raccoon in person for the first time in my life ^_^ and many smunks and osprey, pelican my best friend pelican

looking at the clock and going "oh. i didn't. even realize it was past 8pm." and its not funny or cool its just unbelievably concerning

ok yes i don’t like the ship but like, i think rookvil shippers are very correct in portraying rook as someone with a variety of interests and his own likes but the second Vil comes up he drops everything to talk about how stunning and wonderful she is

like. yeah. we see a ton of that in book 5 even if i interpret why he does it and the impact differently but i can see why people find it romantic

but nobody acknowledges that Trey is literally exactly the fucking same about riddle and it drives me crazy. He drives me crazy. I have split on this cartoon character while playing this game before because he would not shut up about riddle rosehearts. he never SHUTS THE FUCK UP about riddle rosehearts.

and it’s fucking insane because like, Vil is a movie star and a fashion model. It’s very easy to see why someone would be enamored by her. (I know he would even if she wasn’t blah blah)

Meanwhile riddle is this stupid fucking angry little British boy who has never watched a tv show before. riddle would flip shit if he learned about Sonic the hedgehog because the concept of a character not respecting the law and playing by his own rules is bad enough, but he’s a HEDGEHOG? Such graceful animals would never act so disrespectful and crass. And Trey clover is in love with him. He is fucking head over heels for him. He wants to spend the rest of his life with a guy who had to be held back because Ace told him “eat my shorts” when he turned the Simpsons off. We need to put Trey clover under a microscope and study him.

i enjoyed high school! i had a lot of friends! some of them were even close! but holy SHIT . i can say, with full confidence now. HIGH SCHOOL SUCKS SHIT and im GLAD I DON'T GO THERE!!!

I’m always so fascinated by people’s bad roommate stories. I’m not sure I’ll ever live with someone I haven’t vetted extensively beforehand ever again

thinking too much about rinne and hinata friendship. you're telling me rinne doesn't hang out at the sweets dorm all the time? the dorm with his boyfriend and brother in it? and also his favoritest junior ever besides kohaku? cmon
