This whole “trust Tumblr blindly” thing is eventually going to kill someone, as I became pointedly aware of on one occasion I was making fun of how poorly a particular bleach-based drain declogger was working on my sink and got a chorus of really dangerously misinformed people telling me to pour vinegar in after it because all cute little cool kid diy home care blogs they’re following talk about vinegar like it it’s the big secret the cleaning companies don’t want you to know.
And I cringed knowing that someday, some Well Actually expert who read a blog article once is going to give that advice to someone who unfortunately didn’t take high school chemistry and isn’t aware that MIXING VINEGAR AND BLEACH MAKES CHLORINE GAS.

Trufax: I once dated a plumber, so I knew this little factoid. Still – yeah, signal boost for important chemistry FACTS.
I don’t know what high school chemistry you were taking, but they NEVER taught me this in school. Not even a home ec class. Like, i learned about this from “The Boy Called It” and this literal post.
And if you don’t know, chlorine gas was used as a chemical weapon during WWI, and its effects were so terrible that it’s banned under the Geneva Protocol.
I know someone else has already looked, but it’s legible to me! And it’s the book background on chrome 🙂
Thank you! The more people who think it’s legible, the happier I am, so it’s all good. ^_^ And I have no idea why Chrome is kicking up the old banner on mine, but sometimes browsers are weird that way, I guess. O_o;;; Thanks for checking for me! ^_^
Dylan O’Brien
– the star of the ‘Maze Runner’ movies – was severely injured in an
accident on the set of the new movie … and has suffered multiple
broken bones …. TMZ has learned.
Sources on the set tell us the 24-year-old – who plays Thomas in the hugely successful franchise – was filming a scene for “Maze Runner: The Death Cure” involving a car … when something went wrong and he was run over.
We’re told O’Brien was rushed to a hospital in British Columbia with
“severe injuries” – where he is currently undergoing treatment.
Story developing …
Apparently he’s going to be OK – injuries were not life threatening, and they’re shutting down production until he recovers. Glad to hear it!
