@rnd oh no, my hydrogens

@rnd based

@rnd if your body doesn't ache you are basic. got it
-
@rnd no. Type out those 15 characters in the content warning, instead of trying to get a lot of people to use language the way you want to.
@szakib i dunno, consider the cohort of people tooting regular health-update content. like, people with autoimmune diseases, mnd, pain disorders, people accessing fedi with assistive technologies etc.. 15 characters might be negligible to you, but others might have legitimate reasons for abbreviating where possible, like letting their mutuals know using devices is currently very painful for them and sorry they wont be interacting much for a little while. not every fedi niche needs to be for you.
-
@szakib i understand, but also i think you should re-read my post and realize that it is a chemistry joke
i am not out here telling people that they should abbreviate words like "physical health" to two letters, but that is what is currently happening on fedi
@rnd As a joke it makes perfect sense!
-
@rnd I will continue to read "mh-" as a delighted "mmmhhh~" and be confused when I unspoiler
-
@rnd my mind always jumps to 'public house' (posts about good and bad pub experiences).
-
@rnd thanks for the advice, I'll be tagging all my posts pH+ as I'm just getting more and more basic with each day.
-
@rnd why can't people just be bothered to type out content warnings in the first place though? Content warnings are obviously taken very serious here, so why have a barrier of entry by using abbreviations or accronyms on them?
If anything in your post should be clear and easy to understand, it should definitely be the content warning -
@kris_of_pnictogen Argh, you're right. That's exactly the opposite of capacitance, which is why I have the two apparently entangled in my head.
That joke didn't farad all well.
-
@rnd pH+ is when you like pumpkin spice lattes???
-
@rnd my hydrogen ions!!!!!
-
@rnd pH+ you're so based bestie
-
@rnd @gwenthefops what happens when you mix pH- with mh+? does it neutralise or does it explode?

@rnd I'm a pH+ bitch with a pH- tongue.

@linuxandyarn okay that makes sense then, but also I'm gonna say that's stupid and shouldn't be like that
