If you're wondering, when cancer cells are killed by chemo, they break apart and then the actual atoms and molecules get filtered out by the kidneys. So, cancer survivors, you peed your cancer into the fucking toilet and flushed it into the sewer. WHICH IS WHAT IT DESERVED.

Ok, might delete but…we’re used to thinking about explosions, not implosions. The thing is, they are the same thing, rapid changes in pressure. An explosion is when a solid or liquid becomes a gas very fast. The gas takes up way more space, and so slams into anything nearby. 🧵
