You're right, that should be "Gender Liquid" with "Gender Plasma" in the far unreadable section. Gas and liquid should be grouped as fluids - is plasma a fluid? I don't think so but I'm not a physicist

Goddammit

The top right corner is supercritical fluid, which is correct, it's not the same as plasma, which doesn't really fit neatly on a pressure/temperature phase diagram.

Gas can behave like a fluid. Or rather, the two can behave similarly, but they aren't the same thing.

They are though. "Fluidity" is not a discrete phase of matter, it's a characteristic certain phases of matter exhibit.

Ah you're right. I misread your comment. I thought you were calling gas a liquid haha

Edit: I am very dumb and don't proof read my comments

Lol I figured you meant liquid that time, I just couldn't help myself
