      Nah, you’re thinking of orichalcum, an orgasm is the philosophical position that states that the universe and its various parts ought to be considered alive and naturally ordered

        I’m sorry, but that’s organicism. Orgasm is a function describing the location and wave-like behavior of an electron in an atom.
