    Yup, luckily in my case I got into amateur chemistry (tysm sciencemadness) but it pained me to see my friends not actually knowing anything and just memorizing everything by the letter

        nah, that’s generally frowned upon among the people who do chemistry at home both because it’s not economically viable, will get you in jail and it may cause further restrictions on chemicals, which nobody wants or needs

        I mostly do energetics/explosives on a small scale and the occasional organic synthesis

        if you want, there’s an amazing yt channel called Explosions&Fire which perfectly encapsulates the whole spirit of doing chemistry in your shed
