Aren't there like 27 states of matter?

Do you know glass is its own state? You're welcome for the daily dose of WTF

[–] Neato@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

That's actually a myth. Glass is an amorphous solid. It exists the Glass Transition, which is where the solid changes from brittle to rubbery as it heats and begins to melt.
