Looking at the elections in the last two years (US/UK/Poland) the middle finger is precisely what people have in mind

Rhodium is a chemical element with symbol Rh and atomic number 45. It is a rare, silvery-white, hard, corrosion resistant and chemically inert transition metal. It is a noble metal and a member of the platinum group. I'm curious if the element retains the same properties (mainly durability) when plated to a non-metal surface (resin). Regardless, I bought one! |
