I better block this instance. I'm not here to see sinful content like chemistry.

I follow Bruce Lee's advice and keep my PH at 7 so I can be like water.

Hey! This even has голубой!

Today I learned a color, that its etymology is tied to pigeons, and that it's also used (in certain contexts) to mean ideal as well as a slang term for gay (possibly as a pejorative?)

. . .

Kinda, but I was talking only about color. Also it's not perjorative. Perjorative version is гей which is transliteration of gay.

Also сизый is color too. And сизый голубь is common pigeon.

I have a proposal: what if we map where you are in the Gender Spectrum like we map colors? Red is how much female you feel, Blue how much male and Green how much you are willing to change sex or something...

Have you seen the terrible gender input controls?

Why in God's name would you want a pool test strip on your wall?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I actually kinda want that as a flag now.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 7 months ago

Y’all don’t use digital ph meters?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

I'm neutral pH=07.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 7 months ago

So based it's purple.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 7 months ago

I think...I'm acidic?

This is much more likely to actually hang on someone's wall.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 7 months ago

I'm pH <3.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 7 months ago (2 children)

oh shit those colors are a standard?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Theres some slight variance, but generally, because they usually use the same indicators, the resulting colours will be the same across most tests.

E: Double post because lag, oh well.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yes, because most universal pH testers will use the same indicators.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

I have a feeling it's the other way around. They use the same indicators because it's standard.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 7 months ago

I'm a vagina with a pH of 4

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)
