As the element that makes up 75 percent of all the mass in the Universe, and more than 90 percent of all the atoms, we’re all pretty well acquainted with hydrogen.
But the simplest and most abundant element in the Universe still has some tricks up its sleeve, because physicists have just created a never-before-seen form of hydrogen - negatively charged hydrogen clusters.*Anionic Hydrogen Cluster Ions as a New Form of Condensed Hydrogen

…but seriously, over at ‘Time Division’* they are working on perfecting the meter so they can charge per charge I’m sure – now I see they have shaved another layer of time away, we can now measure in zeptoseconds!
Trillionths of a billionth of a second – all billable!

*Ian Curtis could’ve been a great Doctor…** are there Harptoseconds, Chico and Grouchtoseconds?

Donnie Darkhorse is spreading like some ulcerated rust
if he looks like a fungi…
…and he does spread in small explosive bursts
and doesn’t embrace the ‘green world’ at all
acts like a fungi…
