Meaning and Interpretation

☢️ Okay, so this is THE radiation symbol. Obviously, it's for anything nuclear, dangerous, or contaminated – think power plants, toxic waste, that kinda thing. But online, we also use it way more loosely. Feeling super pumped or like you're radiating chaotic energy? ☢️. Did you just drop a super controversial take? That's a ☢️ opinion. It's also huge in gaming for radiation zones or toxic abilities. Basically, it marks anything that's hot, hazardous, or just too much power to handle.
