    It annoys me that the chemical image is using oxygens to represent the benzene rings.

    Here is a more appropriate chemical diagram.

      I could swear I remember representations with circle inside (that didn’t just use an O like this image). Maybe to represent the electrons from the three double bonds being delocalised? Like this.

        Yeah totally fine to use those kinds of representations for delocalized electrons, but literally using tiny letter “o”'s is just 💀 💀 💀

    I originally thought the wheels had oxygen in them somehow but they’re just benzene rings

      Unrelated to your comment, but what is your favorite bird in the Paridea family? My ex girlfriend gifted me a shirt that reads “I love tits” with various species depicted :)
