So many ppl pissed on my tik tok that I played “edm” at a ren faire and ruined the vibe
BRUH I PLAYED LITERAL RENAISSANCE VERSIONS (NOT EDM) OF MY SONGS ON A SIDE STAGE FOR 25 MINUTES DRESSED AS A FANTASY CHARACTER AND IT WAS LIT AS FUCK

There are so many misconceptions and incorrect explanations about “suspensions” during introductory chemistry. The topic shows up a lot in high school and middle school chemistry (usually in comparison with solutions and colloids), but suspensions are usually not explained well, even/especially in textbooks.
Way too often, “suspension” is incorrectly used to mean “heterogeneous mixture.” That’s how I learned it in middle school: that a solution is a uniform mixture (sugar in water), and a suspension is a non-uniform mixture (sand in water). And I still hear it explained that way all the time, by instructors, YouTube videos, etc. But that’s not quite right, and it’s missing important nuance.
Sand in water is not always a suspension. It is always a heterogeneous mixture. But a suspension can be a “moment in the life” of a heterogeneous mixture.
If you physically agitate a mixture of sand and water (e.g. stir or shake it), you can disperse the sand and water throughout each other, and that will temporarily create a suspension. Eventually, the suspension will settle out: the sand and water will separate into two phases. At that point, this mixture is a suspension no more, and it’s back to being a plain old heterogeneous mixture.
Something that makes this even more tricky is that the technical definition (from IUPAC) of suspension is “a solid dispersed in a liquid.” But…plenty of resources use “suspension” to refer to liquid mixtures: not only, say, oil and water dispersed after agitation, but also oil and water sitting peacefully in two completely separate phases. Whether or not “suspension” should refer to mixed-up oil and water is probably a colloquial concern that doesn’t matter much. But, I think it’s fair to say that it doesn’t appropriately refer to oil and water unmixed and just sitting there.
Since students often don’t have a good understanding of (temporary) suspensions, they’re really not set up well to understand colloids, which can be thought of as “permanent suspensions” that don’t settle out over time.
Regardless, when we’re talking about mixtures, I think it’s important to first focus on homogeneous vs. heterogeneous (into which most mixtures can be classified), and then emphasize that suspensions are usually a temporary sub-category of heterogeneous mixtures.

After 1.5 years of using ChatGPT, I can say that it is the technology that has revolutionized my life the most, along with the Internet.
So here are 12 prompts that have transformed my day-to-day life and that could do the same for you.
Founder SUPER Token Transparency Update
As you know 100% of Founders SUPER tokens are vested and unlocked according to the original tokenomics.
All Founders and Advisors have held off on any sales for 3 full years (since the tokens started vesting) at my request, but I cannot in good faith ask them to hold off forever.
In Q1 2025 I will begin to permit sales of Founders SUPER (including my own), in a process designed to last into 2026 and be managed by the industry’s most sophisticated market makers to avoid impact on token price.
After consulting with industry experts and community members I have crafted a plan that has two components: base unlock and performance unlock.
The base unlock is 2% of tokens and the performance unlock will be 0.1% of tokens for every $1B in FDV Growth this cycle (according to Trading View).
The max performance unlock will only be hit if the project reaches $30B FDV.
This way founders interests are directly aligned with the community’s. The more the project succeeds the more tokens we can access! (handshake emoji)
But there’s more.
I’m taking my commitment to transparency and removal of conflicts a step further. I am signing a contract that my tokens would be managed by a third party according to a nondiscretionary plan similar to those used by CEOs of publicly traded companies.
This is simply unprecedented in our industry and will eliminate any ability for me to trade based on my knowledge of the project.
All unlocks will be dynamically distributed across the remainder of the mutli-year nondiscretionary plan for minimal impact.
The plan does not go into effect until Q1 2025.
All founders sell. They just don’t tell you about it.
This is more transparency than you will get with any other project.
Now back to the fun stuff.
SuperVerse is the comeback story of a lifetime and the most fun part is ahead of us.
