A place to post memes & images that won't absolutely obliterate your mental health! Memes must not stray into hopelessness and be generally positive or neutral.
I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!
Only goofs & silliness. (:

there's 2 types of electric current: electrons flowing through a wire, and protons flowing through water
the second kind is also called a pH gradient (because pH value measures how many protons there are in water) and is the main theme of most of biochemistry. since biochemistry is all about moving protons (and other charged ions) around. so this opens up a whole new field (biochemistry) for you!
Well, to be honest, I did try to sell live yeast I grow through pure culture protocol at home in my tiny lab, but demand is so low (and yes, it's regulated so I have to please the big brother by paying for their nonsense sanitary checkups which costed more than I made in revenue), that I just make beer for myself now.
Also, to be honest, there are way more forms of electric current. There is plasma conductivity, superconducting pairs dynamics, molecular conductivity through coupled orbitals, quasiparticle conductivity and other weirdness of solid state (Hall effect shows whether it's electrons or holes where electrons are missing are charge carriers, for example). World is beautiful.
