  I don’t think that’s how they work. They need an energy source first! :-D Better create an ionic gradient and try again:-P.

    Look at this dirty copper, trying to keep the man locked up. Sheesh.

  I’m not smart enough to understand the joke, but I am dumb enough to recognize left dude’s face (or at least the mouth) from Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff.

    The cells in our bodies communicate with each other with structures known as transport proteins. Transport proteins allow molecules and other structures in and out of the cell. This homie got his hands on transport proteins that would allow him out of his “cell”

  This feels like a Henry Stickman option

    In organic cells there is a cell membrane that is semi permeable, it only allows very small things to pass through it (water molecules, other smaller molecules, etc). Otherwise you need an active or passive method of passing through the cell membrane. One of the ways is with transport proteins (and an energy source) which sort of act like locks. Or so what I remember from highschool biology.

    The joke is that the proteins the prisoner received in the mail enable him to escape the jail by passing through the cell wall (membrane).

      Oh man I thought I understood the whole joke but missed the “cell wall” pun

  Supposedly, in a classic episode of Doctor Who, the Doctor calculated that there was a non-zero chance for all of the molecules in a rubber ball to align with all of the molecules in a wall in such a way as to allow the ball to pass through the wall. He then spent some time bouncing the ball off of said wall to test the theory. Perhaps something similar could be a backup plan for the guy in this comic.

    There’s a higher non-zero change for the ball to undergo a spontaneous nuclear explosion.

    How is that possible? The ball is interacting with its own atoms via the electromagnetic field, right? Providing enough of a repellant force so it doesn’t phase through itself. Why would the wall be any different?

    I thought this kind of thing was quantum tunneling.

      that indeed is quantum tunneling

  Related: it I was too carry a trans person, would that be considered transportation?
