    I guess random, but i really like this alternative to the periodic table:

    Because you can see how, after H and He, you do 2 loops of 8 and add the transition metals to the next 2 loops; then you add the lanthanides and actinides to the next 2 loops. And can easily see how the superactinides guy in the extended period table

      I feel like theres got to be a way to do the same concept but have it be a bit less hideous.

        You could make it look like a dick and balls if you did it right.

      What about the table of nuclides? IMO that’s the best way to list elements in a logically consistent manner. The trouble is, nature is a messy kraken that just won’t fit neatly into a shoe box. You can try to squeeze it in, but the lid won’t close because there are always a few tentacles sticking out.
