(37,430 posts)...disturbing fact since you mention atmospheric gases.
When I was in college in a PChem course, there was a problem given in which students were asked to calculate how many argon atoms were in their lungs at the moment that were also in Ceasar's last breath. If I recall correctly the answer was something like ten or so.
Of course the disturbing thing is that this is also true of the orange pedophile's every breath.
Ick!
As it happens I live in an area where there is sufficient uranium in the bedrock as to leach radon has into my home's lower level. I generally have around 50 or so radioactive radon atoms in my lungs. In your honor I will inhale deeply tonight, run upstairs, run outside, and blow radon in the general direction of Washington DC. We need to get that damned bottle of yours opened. It probably won't help but there's no harm in trying.
niyad
(130,214 posts)in advance for your efforts to get my bottle opened!
As it happens, I was just watching some clips from "Thunderheart" the other day, specifically the ones about the illegal uranium mining on the reservation, and how, if the deal went through, it was a death sentence. And I live near mining country (gold, silver, and molybdenum) and the site of the former gold ore processing plant down here. I shudder to think, sometimes, about what we are breathing here. Especcially these days, as the idiots in charge are allowing a huge additional development directly on the processing site. Every time I see the clouds of dust that are being stirred up, I want to cry, or scratch their ignorant, greedy eyes out.
There was a brief scene in "A Charlie Brown Christmas", where Pigpen makes the comment that some of the dust he is carrying could well be some of the same dust that was arround jesus, and adds, " makes you want to treat me with a little respect" (paraphrased).

(130,214 posts)OP's yesterday about a protest song written by Irving Berlin in 1941, titled "When That Man Is Dead And Gone". Both OP's were modern, done by a group called Lizzy and the Triggermen, although I ran across a number of different recordings on youtube. Might be fun to include one in our daily plea to the multiverse?

(130,214 posts)in NYC, quite a group of musicians. There is also a recording by Glenn Miller, the last recording he made, and several others as well. Amazing what can show up on a youtube feed.

(129,593 posts)When that man is dead and gone,
When that man is dead and gone,
We'll go dancing down the street,
Kissing everyone we meet
When that man is dead and gone!
What a day to wake up on!
What a way to greet the dawn!
Some fine day the news'll flash blare
Satan with a small moustache combed-over hair
Is asleep beneath the lawn
When that man is dead and gone.
Satan! Satan!
Thought up a plan
Dressed as a man,
Walking the earth,
And since he began
The world is hell for you and me,
But what a heaven it will be
When that man is dead and gone,
When that man is dead and gone!
When they lay him twelve feet deep
I'll be there to laugh, not weep
When that man is dead and gone.
What a day to wake up on!
What a way to greet the dawn!
Satan'll take him by the hand
To meet old Goering's Luftwaffe that ICE-y Nazi band
When that man is dead and gone,
When that man is dead and gone.
Some fine day the news'll flash screech,
Satan with a small moustache his face of peach
Is asleep beneath the lawn
When that man is dead and gone.
What a day to wake up on!
What a way to greet the dawn!
When a certain man is dead and gone.
A little rewriting of a few lines as suggested and we have our new theme song!

(32,293 posts)It's not my list. I would have probably written it as...
Superficial charm, subject to cracking.
I think it is also important to note that with dementia and other types of neurological injuries (like Fetterman) it is increasingly difficult to hide your true personality. You lose your social filter real or faked, if you ever had one.
niyad
(130,214 posts)generally holds true. .but I think will have to be studied and updated to include krasnov and company, and their cultists, who could not fake any sort of positive human emotion if their lives depended on it. Assuming we survive this nightmare, that is.
