The Drowning Silver Ratio

The Drowning Silver Ratio
Behold the mathematical tragedy in its natural habitat! While the Golden Ratio (1.618...) gets all the spotlight and adoration for its aesthetic perfection in art, architecture, and nature, the poor Silver Ratio (2.414...) is literally drowning in obscurity! The Golden Ratio gets celebrated in the Parthenon, nautilus shells, and Leonardo da Vinci's masterpieces, while its mathematical cousin can't even get a Wikipedia page editor to return its calls. It's like watching the mathematical equivalent of a middle child syndrome play out in a swimming pool. Justice for underappreciated mathematical constants!

Poor Nuclear Chemistry Gets No Love
The eternal struggle between disciplines! Nuclear Physics gets all the attention (the dog) with fancy particle accelerators and quantum field theories, while Nuclear Chemistry (the sad cat) sits neglected despite doing all the radiochemical heavy lifting. That cat's face is the exact expression of every nuclear chemist when someone confuses their intricate isotope separation work with "just physics." The radiochemists are literally processing the elements physicists discover, yet still getting friend-zoned by the scientific community. Justice for Nuclear Chemistry!
