    For some reason no one has done a periodic table showing trends in periodicity, weight, size, electronegativity etc.

    Most of the apps on my phone are from FDroid. This does not mean that you can have a phone with any comparable level of functionality without relying on Google. You can see for yourself by installing a stock android ROM with no google play

    Groceries and toiletries are rarely shipped by sea. I'd define junk as something disposable that isn't consumed. Really anything by harbor freight that breaks easily.
