While swimming competitively for many years, my parents were insistent that the chlorine would make my siblings and me impervious to disease. Because it does kill microbes in the water.

After one particularly grueling meet, I got the most sick I’ve ever been in my life, probably a bad flu. Freezing shakes so bad even a shower couldn’t stop them, I was so sick I couldn’t walk ten feet to the bathroom, almost certainly caught at the meet.

Of course now I find out that inhaling shitloads of chlorine may have hosed my lungs for covid, all because the *common sense* idea that breathing chlorine must be good for you. Every time I asked ‘uh but isn’t chlorine gas used as a weapon’ I’d get a “oh that’s totally different!” response.

In short, tons of people will die and conservatives won’t learn a goddamn thing from this.

I saw an episode of CHiPs as a child where there was a chlorine gas tanker truck the guys were taking up some mountain road but there was a wreck and a tiger got lose then Ponch was sexist but no one cared

That's when I first discovered that chlorine gas was dangerous and the cops were jerks

totally different chemical but there's that youtube video of a cop responding to an overturned ammonia tanker truck who doesn't assess the area at all, runs right into the cloud of ammonia and dies within 10 seconds as his dashcam records the whole thing

You can only complain about a half hour of epilogues in Return of the King if you've been able to sit through the entirety of Peter Jackson's King Kong.

I’ve been shown the video as part of training and the explanation they gave was that it’s real, and the family gave permission for it to be used in training videos to prevent future deaths.
