@mattgrayyes what's the point of brushing your teeth if your toothpaste *doesn't* have radium, anyway?

@mattgrayyes use arsenic in your mint drops, it adds a beautiful green colour! As Sir PTerry wrote, "they are to die for! (or maybe of, the handwriting is unclear)"
@drchaos@sauropods.win @mattgrayyes@chaos.social a sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich? with arsenic sauce?

tetraethyl lead 
tetraethyl lead @kuriko@wetdry.world @mattgrayyes@chaos.social A fun* fact: Thomas Midgley Jr, who played a key role in the development of leaded petrol, then went on to create some of the first CFCs. It's been posited that he may be the single organism in history to cause the most environmental harm. After contracting polio, he designed a series of ropes to lift himself out of bed which he got entangled in and died.

@mattgrayyes I swear one of our far-right parties had "legalise asbestos" on elction posters, can't find it because they've chosen a common enough political word for their name
instead, there's a national chain called Pound Bakery, who's logo on all their shops is "Pb"
@patterfloof @mattgrayyes I remember seeing a full page ad in a magazine back in the mid seventies, from the associated octel corporation advocating leaded petrol and various other products on the grounds that leaded fuels helped us win WW2. So we should continue using it out of gratitude for saving us from Hitler I guess.

@mattgrayyes@chaos.social If you've played "Thank Goodness You're Here", there's a street preacher saying we should bring back asbestos. I think it's a parody of the anti-vax street preachers who are still somewhat prevalent
@als @mattgrayyes And if you haven't played Thank Goodness You're Here, go play Thank Goodness You're Here, film yourself playing it and put it on YouTube
