Behold the visual representation of nuclear physics that no textbook dares to show! Regular hydrogen is just vibing with its single proton. Add a neutron? Boom—deuterium's feeling a bit more substantial. But tritium? That third neutron turns it radioactive and suddenly it's in bed, glowing yellow, and questioning its life choices. The perfect metaphor for how we all feel after adding "just one more" responsibility to our plate. Nuclear isotopes: they're just like us, except tritium has a half-life of 12.3 years, while your motivation to finish that research paper has a half-life of approximately 12.3 minutes.
