gollark: Just play it at 1.5x speed and ignore, say, most of the transition metals (nobody likes them), alkali metals below whatever period (it's not like they're very unique), the lathanides/acinitides or however you spell that, and also anything over 100.
gollark: It turns out that you can use `pls faketext` to retrieve a very rough idea of what one person is saying in channels you don't have access to if you know the channel ID (which you can get from the starboard) or possibly the name!
gollark: Yes, praise our bezosian overlord.
gollark: Smart pets are good, surely. You can train them to do fun things.
gollark: I like the top one, arbitrarily based on color scheme.
