@LexYeen Caro's acid (piranha solution) might be a better option, as you can just make it on-site rapidly using such common and banal ingredients as concentrated sulfuric acid and 30% hydrogen peroxide

@LexYeen Of course, there's the difficulty involved in moving around strong fluorinating agents. It's less of a mess if something goes wrong than nuclear weapons, but things do go wrong much more often.

@anthracite ah, we used to hang out there

that was a lifetime ago

@LexYeen Some things can survive nuclear radiation. Nothing can survive fluorination.

@LexYeen i dunno if i was an intended target, but it sure did hit

@trysdyn Better the feedback column vibrates than you lose control of the car!

@oceanotter for us i guess it's just that we don't know you yet? you seem like a cool enough sort of person but it's hard enough for us to talk to people we do know, let alone people we don't, when they're not specifically talking to us or asking a question we know the answer to

@owashii@plush.city Oooh, that makes sense then. Series that are forced to go on too long often end up like that.

@owashii@plush.city I kinda wonder if the protagonist of I Am a Cat being increasingly less cat-like is intentional, if it's meant to have some meaning

@oceanotter @Freakus @Caudlewag a lot of the less obvious CWs you can think of as accessibility concerns--eye contact is off-putting for a lot of autistic people like us, pictures of food can be a problem for people with eating disorders, a *lot* of people we know find AI-generated art to be viscerally upsetting,

The norms on here are norms for a reason

@oceanotter @Freakus @Caudlewag Speaking as someone who finds eye contact extremely off-putting to show up all the time, i *really* appreciate the fact that people tend to CW eye contact on here. it makes it a lot less stressful to be on here

@Caudlewag @Nomaxice @oceanotter like the main point of frission we've noticed with twitter people joining is them trying to Be Noticed and Get Numbers, when... I dunno, most people here, or at least on this corner of here, are here to hang out and not worry about that sort of stuff

it's a sort of culture shock thing, i guess
-F

@Caudlewag @Nomaxice @oceanotter I think people like that might also be trying to use this network as something it isn't and isn't trying to be? like, the point of this place is to be comfy. we're not trying to be Big and Endless-Growth-Venture-Capitalism-Nonsense, it's just to be a place people can exist and talk to each other and not have to worry about Algorithms and Clout and whatever the buzzword of the week is

@hi_cial well, FA doesn't really make it easy to change usernames, so maybe that?

@hi_cial i wonder if it's just a standard off the shelf bluetooth keyboard

@hi_cial @heatherhorns what makes humanity distinct is that they're utterly convinced that they're distinct, despite evidence to the contrary
