No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Eh, short term it's no big deal. Teeth are durable as hell and won't get fucked up by anything that minor if it's a rare thing. But, the more you do it, the more damage accumulates over time. A few times a year over decades? Never gonna notice it.
A few times a month, and it'll be a decade or two before it would be a problem.
A few times a week, and you'd better have dental coverage and/or good income, because you're looking at a few years before it starts showing up as carries. Less if circumstances are bad, or you didn't start out with very good teeth.
There's also the fact that keeping in the habit of brushing after eating stays a habit better if you don't deviate from it without an important reason. In my mind, if you're awake enough to eat, you're awake enough to brush afterward. If you aren't awake enough to brush, then you probably shouldn't be eating either. Fucks with digestion and metabolism. It's better to just stay on track and skip the snack, if you dig me.
But nah, if it's a rare thing, you'll take more damage from a soda than a single night skipping brushing after a midnight nosh. It's all about the acids.
Now, if you can't be bothered to at least swish out with some water, I'd say you've got worse things to worry about because you can do that on your way back to bed, swallow it and take zero extra effort beyond the mouthful of water. If your energy is that low, or there's some other impediment involved, focus on that.
