From @symphony-calamity, for radios: Crackling static, knobs and dials, and abstract sense of connection to humanity and the world, they’re very sexy. / They connect humanity across vast distances! They have buttons and dials and make static noises! They play music! There’s something so incredibly tangible about radios, they obviously deserve to win this tournament.
Minerals and crystals are beautiful! They come in all sorts of different natural colours, shapes and sizes. And each property tells us so much about its compositions, its origins, and the rock it is in. Every property relates to either its atomic structure or the magma it is in.
Minerals, by definition, consists entirely of a group of atoms that repeats itself throughout the structure. Occasionally, you get an atom like iron mixed in. That is how you get minerals such as amethyst or citrine. Even cat’s eye and star effect are related to impurities. And Occasionally, radiation decides to disrupt the atomic structure and creates a false colour in the mineral. This is how you get green diamonds. Sometimes, the defined structure itself causes interference colours like in bubbles, that you get funky colours in labradorite.
While crystals might not heal you physically (they do help crystal lovers like me mentally though!), they certainly need your love and support. We are behind in the poll, so please vote for crystals and minerals!!!!!
