    I’m a physicist, not a genie, and I have no fucking clue what adding an electron to every atom would do. I can’t even begin to fathom the question.

      I don’t know either, I just think the consequences would be universally negative.

      break all chemical bonds immediately, there will probably be further consequences regarding a universal electron imbalance, but we would already be atomised
