Why are they advertising the mineral asbestos in asbestos magazine? Surely nobody is reading that publication because they’re on the fence about the stuff?
It’s kind of wild just how useful asbestos actually was. Aside from the obvious issues, it was genuinely a miracle material that did all sorts of cool things. Too bad our insides hate it more than just about anything else.
I used to know this retired Air Force jet pilot guy. He had an asbestos glove he took. You could put it on and just bury your hand in the bbq coals, hand didn’t even get warm. It was like straight up magic.
Still is, honestly. We still use asbestos in a ton of stuff, but we’re just generally a lot more careful about using it fortunately, and not doing as many open-air asbestos shoveling competitions upwind from the schoolyard.
Somebody still has to mine it though
Haha yeah. That’s where I recently learned about it myself. They’ve been on a hot streak of some really fantastic videos as of late.

They were just trying to market the stuff asbestos they could

My neighbor’s didgeridoo teacher hired a monkey gronker for his 9/11 party last year and everyone was pretty offended. Next year I think he’ll settle for live music instead.
