The Curvature of Spacetime Prevents Most Collisions
These past weeks I’ve been suffering from a sort of a writer’s block. For three and a half years I had been working on the theory of everything, but now that I have the manuscript one the “Theory of Everything -lite” submitted and (soon) being peer reviewed, I no longer need to think about the mathematics behind it. Or rather, I decided that it was okay for me to ignore the elementary particle of energy for a while and just focus on supramolecular motion. And I don’t have the

Supramolecular Motion for Dummies
In today’s post I’ll be talking about what supramolecular motion is and what it isn’t. I just realized that I hadn’t written about it before this. I had written a two part “ Theory of Everything for Dummies ” almost two years ago. But those posts were very different to what I’m talking about in this post. Back then I talked about an elementary particle of energy and its motion. This time I’ll take a step back and talk about the motion of much bigger particles: that of molecul

Quantum Gravity Looking for Peer Reviewers
Today’s post isn’t exactly about a major advancement in my process. Rather it’s about doing things the easy way. I’ve finally submitted the sneaky manuscript on Quantum Gravity to a journal that by its own admission only considers the technical soundness of the manuscript as a criterion for acceptance for peer review, not the perceived importance to the field. To some extent this is a major step down in merit, but honestly after the paper is accepted, no one cares where it w

Lowered Expectations
One thing that is almost a guarantee from Nature is a swift desk rejection. It took two working days to receive the following response: Thank you for submitting your manuscript, "The Theory of Supramolecular Motion, the Primary Structure of Lignin and its Application in Adhesives", for consideration. After careful review of the work, we regret to say that we are unable to publish it in Nature.As you may know, we decline a substantial proportion of manuscripts without sending

Quantum Gravity Submitted!
Today I did it! I submitted the manuscript “ The Theory of Supramolecular Motion, the Primary Structure of Lignin and its Application in Adhesives ” or the sneaky article on quantum gravity to Nature. In some sense, I’ve been here before. A bit over two years ago I submitted my Theory of Everything -manuscript into Nature , but with feared result. I said in the post: I’m still afraid that my case isn’t strong enough for the manuscript to be accepted for peer review. I can o

The Magical Cover Letter Revisited
I’m finally at the stage of finalizing my manuscript “The Theory of Supramolecular Motion, the Primary Structure of Lignin and its Application in Adhesives”, or quantum gravity in action for submission to Nature . The manuscript itself is ready, but I still need to get an all-clear from the companies involved in my projects. I’ve given them a deadline of this Friday (November 14 th 2025) to raise any concerns. This means that on Friday I can submit the manuscript. So, I’ve

How to Apply Quantum Gravity?
In today’s post I’m going to talk about something a bit different to what I’ve done the last few weeks. I’m going to talk about practical things. You see, for me quantum gravity isn’t just an abstract idea not connected to anything in real life. Quite the opposite. These past few days I’ve been doing practical quantum gravity in ton-scale. That is, I’ve been making LignoSpheres: the product that I’m studying both academically, but which is also the main product of my start

It’s Accepted! (The Preprint is: no Peer-Review Yet)
Today I’m proud to announce that my preprint “ The Theory of Supramolecular Motion, the Primary Structure of Lignin and its Application to Adhesives ” to ChemRxiv was accepted! Here’s the link ! Normally this wouldn’t be that big of a thing. Preprints aren’t peer-reviewed, so they don’t go through the same kind of scrutiny as journal articles. However, I know from my past history that ChemRxiv does screen preprints for content not following their guidelines. And for chemist

Preprint of Quantum Gravity Submitted!
Yesterday was the day. Over two years since I last submitted the previous preprint, I finally found the courage to submit my manuscript for the Quantum Gravity interpretation of supramolecular to a preprint server. First I considered arXiv, but decided against it because submitting there requires a recommendation from someone who has done it already (and I don't know any such person). I also consider bioRxiv, but decided against it as well, once I realized that my article did

Plot Your Own Quantum Gravity
In today’s post I’m showing all of my calculations and most of the measurement data for my Quantum Gravity manuscript. The calculations showing the curvature of space-time due to steric constraints . Actually, the closest term in the literature is Van der Waals strain , or: strain resulting from Van der Waals repulsion when two substituents in a molecule approach each other with a distance less than the sum of their Van der Waals radii . This isn’t exactly the same t

The Theory of Supramolecular Motion, the Primary Structure of Lignin and its Application to Adhesives
In my last post I promised to very soon present the version of the manuscript on Quantum Gravity and Lignin Adhesive that I would be submitting to Nature . Today is the day that I do this. To some extent I had expected that it would take longer, but as I read the publishing guidelines by Nature , it became clear that even though I had to make some changes, these changes weren’t extremely laborious. The main text needed to be separate from the figures, as the layout of the

Submitting the Theory of Quantum Gravity Part 2: Needs More Data
Do you know what the most frustrating phrase in science is? It’s “It needs more data”. As in “I acknowledge that you state that you are observing a pattern emerging from your data, but I think there’s a good likelihood that you’re just attributing meaning to random noise”. The reason why this phrase is frustrating is because the phrase is both kind of right and kind of wrong. Very often in science, the first signs of a fundamental discovery are vague. You observe an anomal

Submitting the Theory of Quantum Gravity Part 1: The Streetlight Effect
I’m in the (hopefully) last stages of submitting my manuscript on the Theory of Quantum Gravity and Lignin Adhesives and while I’m polishing the paper to fit all of the criteria for Nature , I’m also feeling quite nervous of the streetlight effect . I might have mentioned the streetlight effect in at least one previous post. According to Wikipedia, the story goes like this: A policeman sees a drunk man searching for something under a streetlight and asks what the drunk has

The Living Theory of Quantum Gravity: Part 4 It’s ready! (sort of)
In today’s post on my ongoing polishing of my manuscript on the Theory of Quantum Gravity and Lignin Adhesives I present the ready manuscript! Well, the sort of ready manuscript. I’ve been polishing the text to the point where I’m finally at a point where the major changes are the descriptions of experiments by my coauthors. So, this is what I’ve just done. Sent the manuscript and the supplementary information to them for their input. I’m not assuming that they would cont
