    The “Gender Gas” joke has always bothered me for no reason other than because gas IS a fucking fluid.

      This shit should be titled “it’s just a phase”

      Your joke is funnier than the OP.

      My dude you ought to steal this and add it to the chart and repost as your own.

        when I thought of it, I thought to myself “this is either going to be massively misconstrued as me trying to be a dick to trans people, or I’m a comedy genius, lets find out”, rad that it’s the latter

        sidebar: I also considered “I Can’t Believe It’s Not a Phase Diagram”. so, whoever steals this next, you’re welcome, not one but two good title ideas!

    If you crush me, then reheat me to just below my melting point, then quench me back then crush me some more, my microgender structure gets stretched and tensed with smaller and smaller grains. I become harder and harder until my yield strength is equal to my ultimate strength. Deep down I’m still the same alloy but heat treated.

        Thanks! I just like the feeling of the microcrystalline structure solving and re condensing with new orientation that prevent my gender planes from dislocating on all sorts of cleavage directions.

      You’re right, that should be “Gender Liquid” with “Gender Plasma” in the far unreadable section. Gas and liquid should be grouped as fluids - is plasma a fluid? I don’t think so but I’m not a physicist

        The top right corner is supercritical fluid, which is correct, it’s not the same as plasma, which doesn’t really fit neatly on a pressure/temperature phase diagram.

        Yes, it is just ionized gas. What happens when you ionize something in a liquid or solid state? Can ions not form a solid or liquid without some occupied orbitals?

          That’s a really salty fluid, or a strong acid/base. Plasma just has temperature driving the ionization, rather than chemistry.

            Could you potentially use sheer charge to ionize something by ripping out all the electrons?

              That would be a stupidly hight amount of charge.

              For a very rough estimate, thunderstorms peak at about 6.7 nanocoulombs of charge per m³, or 4.2e10 fewer electrons per m³. Cumulonimbus clouds have roughly 2 grams of water per m³, or 6.7e22 atoms per m³. Thus, thunderstorms have 1 in 10e12 fewer electrons.

              To fully ionize water, you would need something like a trillion times as much voltage as lightning, and the ability to insulate the sample from other sources of electrons like any nearby matter.

              This might be feasible at very small scales, but the result would be just as dangerous. A bunch of protons that really want electrons nearby would pull lightning from anywhere they could, and would be unbelievably corrosive. Something like a pH of -23.7, although pH breaks down long before this point.

              Such a substance completely devoid of electrons would also repel itself very strongly, so it would evaporate into gaseous protons basically instantly. “Normal” plasma is much more stable because the electrons are separated by temperature rather than by electric change. High electric charges are much more difficult to contain.

              I’m not a physicist though, so I’m likely wrong on the details.

      Gas can behave like a fluid. Or rather, the two can behave similarly, but they aren’t the same thing.

    Ok so… what exactly would the gender triple point be?

    … A person at their first rave, first time doing molly or E?

    The moral of the story is don’t put someone under too much pressure or get them too heated, otherwise they’ll go gender critical.

      Well normally it’ll get gender fluid all over the place but if you do it right they’ll go gender critical and get gender all over the place. That’s how we got the month of June.

    God I’ve been waiting to see a good version of this for years, thank you OP

    Edit: goddammit it’s all wrong
