Isn’t that the one where they literally used asbestos or something?

They DID? ...Well, I guess it was the 1930's so nothing was exactly safe, but that's honestly kind of sad

Yeah, it’s kinda fascinating to me how people back then used dangerous minerals like it was nothing, how they used lead in dishware, for example…

Dude have you heard of Judy's story on the set of this movie? Its legitmentily tragic.

Yep, shit ton of asbestos, and many people almost died in the production (or at least got very hurt)

We're not much better these days either in fairness, we've still got issues with microplastics or PFAS for example.

It feels as if we don't tend to realise the issues until they've shown themselves after the fact...

Yeah... Damn microplastics make me really mad!

At least they’re not causing serious health problems… yet

Just a matter of time!

Anyways just got a hair cut

Ever heard of Fiestaware? Cool dishware, but it's uranium glass

Fucking what? URANIUM GLASS EXISTS?

Yeah, pretty cool stuff, and can still be used as long as it isn't chipped or broken. The dishware has a very cool glow to it when put under a blacklight (only the transparent pieces, though)

Edit: seems like the opaque ones also glow. Nice!

I like the color of Fiestaware, that weird orange color it has is unique and charming, in a sense, even though it may kill you

Reminds me that vicorirens thought tomatos were evil because it killed a rich family... but then the family was just.. eating off of plates made of led.

It's insane that nobody caught onto that for a while

We were kind of idiots, but to be fair we didn't really know

I mean... the average person person isnt that smart..

True! I can confirm, because, well, obviously I'm not that bright

Me neither (Unless it involves animtion, ask me anything and l'll probably know it)

I dabble in animation sometimes, I have an expensive software made for it just kinda sitting on my PC

I've gotta start using it again, It's just that I'm kinda bad at it

Im decent! You wanna see a gif i made?

Sure!
