Do you think it's conspiracy theories that turn people gay and they're just trying to justify it so they can feel comfortable with their sexualities?

[-] choab@discuss.online 15 points 13 hours ago

This is the woke DEI future that the globalists want

[-] Wilco@lemm.ee 13 points 13 hours ago

Send this to Fox News! The MAGATs need to know about this substance. It would be amazing to hear a MAGA politician comment on the dangers of this substance and vow to eradicate it.

What does the T stand for (or is that a typo)?

[-] untakenusername@sh.itjust.works 10 points 13 hours ago

I heard somewhere that if you breath this stuff in its liquid form, you can die!

[-] fyzzlefry@retrolemmy.com 9 points 9 hours ago

Everyone that has ingested it has eventually died

Dihydrogen Monoxide

What is this woke liberal commie trash. Are you trying to summon a demon? Speak American!

[-] leftzero@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 8 hours ago

Oxidane, hydric acid, hydroxylic acid, hydrohydroxic acid, hydroxic acid, hydroxoic acid, hydrol, μ-Oxidodihydrogen, oxygen dihydride, hydrogen hydroxide, aqua, neutral liquid... 🤷‍♂️

“Universal” Ha! Knew it you commie!

[-] Eiren@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 14 hours ago

I think in America it's usually called hydric acid! 😨

[-] Rolive@discuss.tchncs.de 58 points 23 hours ago

It's an extremely addictive chemical as well. You'll feel withdrawal symptoms after mere hours and going without for multiple days results in death!

[-] psud@aussie.zone 24 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

I felt I needed more than 1L of DHMO after breakfast, I have been a habitual user for pretty much my whole life

It's there hope for me‽

[-] Apocalypteroid@lemmy.world 18 points 22 hours ago

No, I'm sorry. You only have years to live.

[-] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 13 points 22 hours ago

It depends, I have known people die just a few days or hours after drinking it

[-] Rolive@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 21 hours ago

If too much gets into your lungs it's lethal.

[-] el_bhm@lemm.ee 2 points 15 hours ago

Join ADHMO brother. There is 12 steps.

*frogs naturally turn gay its a plot point Jurassic Park

[-] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 22 points 23 hours ago

My God... They look just like flakes of frozen water!

[-] Comment105@lemm.ee 18 points 22 hours ago

You can't freeze water. Water is a liquid, frozen things are solid.

You're thinking of quartz.

[-] Mighty_Appititey@lemmy.world 44 points 1 day ago

That's the kind of ground breaking studies that keeps S.H.I.T. a top tier institute

[-] spechter@lemmy.ml 6 points 16 hours ago

I didn't even catch that one

[-] rasbora@lemm.ee 133 points 1 day ago

Recent studies found this chemical in all of the human samples that were examined, implying widespread contamination of people's bodies. We are in deep water, folks.

[-] th3dogcow@lemmy.world 47 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Worryingly, examination of those recently deceased has found high levels of dihydrogen monoxide in their bodies, leading scientists to ponder whether every person who knowingly or unknowingly consumes this chemical will actually one day die.

[-] Echinoderm@aussie.zone 27 points 1 day ago

I've heard that it's so addictive that people who stop using it will die from withdrawal in a matter of days.

[-] 1024_Kibibytes@lemm.ee 7 points 1 day ago

Not unless there's a whole bunch of it, we're not. Although dyhydrogen monoxide does make up about 60 of a human, so for any individual person, you're correct.

[-] boydster@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

DHMO can cut a person into 60 pieces is what I take away from that statement, and that's yet another reason to keep this dangerous chemical under very strict lock and key. Won't someone think of the children?

[-] MarcomachtKuchen@feddit.org 2 points 23 hours ago

Cut my life Into pieces...

[-] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 13 points 23 hours ago

It can also hold a plethora of other chemicals that make it highly conductive (nanobots!?) and even in its most pure form it contains acidic as well as basic components (sorcery!?).

[-] perishthethought@lemm.ee 5 points 15 hours ago

Nanobots‽

Sorcery‽

interrobang :)

[-] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 3 points 14 hours ago

It's a fun symbol with a fun name but I'm not a fan because it removes the nuance of which symbol you put first. I use "!?" for exclamations where the speaker can hardly believe what they're saying themselves and "?!" for rhetorical or emotional questions.

[-] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 1 points 13 hours ago
  • Nanobots?
  • Sorcery?
  • Hotel?
  • Trivago
[-] Jolteon@lemmy.zip 8 points 23 hours ago

This substance is a key ingredient in some energy drinks. All humans who have consumed these energy drinks develop a dependency to it, and have withdrawal symptoms up to and including death.

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago

I'm sure like 99.9% of us here get the joke, but the meme says water turns into ice when it freezes.

[-] tfed@infosec.exchange 4 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago)

@fossilesque with Hydric Acid it may produce blistering vapors :blobcatterrified: when exposed to temperatures of >100° C
