Home Depot taking a stand against Woke masks.

Or some other stupid shit.

Stop the liberal anti wallcandy propaganda. It feels so good to eat the wall candy. It tastes exactly like cotton candy but it's available in my walls and my mattress

I remember often playing in construction sites as a kid, and we once found a roll of fiberglass. we just decided to sit on it and play with it (I found it funny how it tickled my skin) 😭😭

The someone who wrote the text to image prompt, didn't know what goes into installing insulation.

That some big ass bacon.

If you are going to use reddit at least block the ads with revanced

There are more nasty things you ingest daily. the most healthy people die early because of simply bad genes while some smoking couch potatoes rapists live to 100 years old

We need some cope though and semblance of control hence existence of religion, nutrition ‘science’ and rumba. People brains ain’t made to handle the raw reality

So you can feel good and safe doing bullshit exercises up until the last day before random heart failure

There is no scorn or contempt here don’t get me wrong it’s all fine as long as we feel good in my opinion. I wouldn’t think of anyone who doesn’t raw dog reality as a lesser being it’s simply impossible to function without some kind of copium mechanism for fragile existence whether it is wellbeing coaching, technobrosing, mysticism or Christianity all fulfills same purpose

It’s much better for you as a mortal to adopt one of them, just pick one and not handicap yourself with existential crisises every evening cause that’s burden we aren’t made to handle

"Hmm, our focus group revealed that showing the 'home owner' having to wear PPE made them think the work was dangerous. So lose the PPE for the ads."

There's more, this guy is a rebel.

"Well, it seems his lungs are completely filled with Owens Corning fiberglass insulation. One third of his body weight is Owens Corning fiberglass insulation. But don't worry, he won't burn in hell... thanks to all that Owens Corning fiberglass insulation."

Ads disguising themselves as regular posts (e.g. the "LPT") is bad. It gets worse when someone screenshots and reposts the ad, presumably even for free. But why does the R****t ad make it all the way to Lemmy!??

Boomers hate using safety gear.

While this definitely is bad, I think people tend to be a bit unreasonable about this stuff.

Fiberglass is not asbestos, and by the way, asbestos is not uranium.

Do wear the proper PPE, yes, but also don’t be neurotic about it. Even full-time asbestos miners don’t always get related cancers. If you removed some without knowing, studies show you’ll be fine. Your body can and does eliminate asbestos, albeit very slowly.

And again, fiberglass is not asbestos, and doesn’t cause mesothelioma. It’s still not recommended to breathe it in, especially not on the regular, but you don’t need to live in fear of it.

A little unrelated but still related... I went to the JohnDepo this weekend to get some 2X4...yeah they still look good from far away but every single stick is warped, wet, splintered and such. But this time what really stroke me was that it was Saturday morning 9am and all shelves with the 2x4x10' and 8' were full to the top.

You know what that means if you know what it means. But let me say it: Nobody's buying! Nobody's working on a weekend project or house extensions or improvements. My 500k house now sits a few streets away from a 2mil dollar house. Like there's absolutely nobody who would want a house in my neighborhood for 2million. C'mon! There's just no way, no how. It boggles the mind that they even finished the stupid thing and put that price on it.

Either asbestos hands or maybe AI generated category images?
