I am once again reminding the world that the ancient Romans warned not to buy slaves from asbestos mines because of the health issues they had.
We have known for a very long time that asbestos was bad and we keep using it to this day.
At least we aren't using it to make easy clean tablecloths and napkins that only need to be thrown in a fire to clean...
...have you heard the latest presidential executive order from the U nited S tates?...
... I picked a bad presidential term to stop smoking
...have some airplane! glue...
Sorry, I'm out of the loop
Did the orange idiot suggest to bring asbestos back?
That would play well with Russia, as the current biggest exporter of asbestos and would pretty much fit the picture of the idiots way of doing "business"
