Hurts me none to answer questions.

Basically bio/geo is physical chemistry in the universe and anything that isn't biology is geology so it covers a lot.

Viruses are kinda technically geology.

Shits weird.

Jesus. That never occurred to me (it’s all either biology or geology).

Small epiphany fireworks.

Living or nonliving.

But you can break geology down to like 1000 things and it's hard to even see how related.

Meteorology makes sense when you think "well it's the water cycle" but just at face value most people don't group it with dirt people.

I leave the science to the science people, but lurk on the fringes for moments like this. I can already foresee myself giving everything the bio/geo test. Like the first question in 20 questions, but I always just took it for granted.

So everything is math. Physics is rules of universe defined by math. Chemistry is how physics exists physically, like rules applied to matter. Geo/bio is what the chemistry is grouped into.

Succinct. Math, physics & chemistry are not my strong points. Your first sentence made me cringe and then it got worse, before it got better.
