For an image subreddit with fewer restrictions, check out /r/misc!

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  6. No animated images. Please submit them to /r/gif, /r/gifs, or /r/reactiongifs instead.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

actually, touching mercury is fine. only inhaling the fumes is bad. leads to small holes in the brain.

When I was in junior high the teacher passed around an open container of mercury. She said we could touch it so I stuck my finger in it and swirled it around. It was weird.

It had a similar level of thickness as syrup but it was as fluid as water. Oh, and it was much heavier than I thought it was going to be.

That's pretty cool, but I worry about any adverse effects of skin contact. Are there any?

"While not considered toxic, the data about gallium are inconclusive."

Thank you for the link, none-the-less.

Sounds cool but I remember reading that you end up getting little tiny blobs of it on everything after a while of playing with it.

Where can I acquire a sample of this most curious alloy?

[–]av4rice 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's a single element. Not an alloy.

[–]Raseth84 -1 points0 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Interesting. Is there a way for average people to acquire a piece?
