Real talk: Would literally cutting a single atom in half unleash the force of an atomic bomb? Would it even be a noticeable reaction to the unassisted human eye?
I’ve seen some science show stuff at particle accelerators where a dude points to some device giving off sparks and is like “these sparks are actually anti-matter explosions.” So I wonder if a single atom of regular matter would even be a spark.

There are carbon atoms splitting (decaying) inside of you right now. This is why carbon dating works. Do you notice them?
Yeah, unless the atom in question is neutronium, you won’t notice and if it is neutronium, you have all kinds of issues even without splitting it.
Silly talk: Idk… I sometimes get this weird, tingling feeling through my whole body. You think it might be carbon decay?
Maybe it’s neuropathy? Maybe it’s Maybelline?
Nah, pretty sure they were born with it 🤷
