I was not expecting to see crystal form diagrams on Twelve Men today, I spent half a semester confused to hell and back about them lol

You can make a toxic slime out of borax too, by mixing it with the right kind of PVA glue.

No it gets way more complicated than the drawings there. Like they get broken down into 32 different shapes which are made up of a bunch of different transformations and stuff. Check out this if you wanna be more confused: https://opengeology.org/Mineralogy/10-crystal-morphology-and-symmetry/ But otherwise I can pretty confidently say your crystal there is cubic (even though it is not a cube lol)

i use borax to brighten my white laundry, but you can also use it to lower the melting point of gold, if that's what you're into
