Who benefits from this? Corporations, their greedy CEO’s, and their billionaire oligarch owners.

Who suffers from this. The workers and the public.

mumbo foreshadowed his own death earlier in the session. the minecart track is very finicky, with lots of levers and powered rails to make sure it works correctly. its the kind of system where if you breathe wrong everything can blow up in your face. multiple times mumbo got overzealous and forgot to check that everything was set back the way it should be which meant the minecarts just ran off the edge instead of gaining momentum. and this was still fine, because it didn't kill any of them.

the thing is though, on the part of the track you're supposed to initially place the minecart on they used a powered rail, but most of the time they had it turned off and just nudged the minecart until it ran onto the loop. but this time, someone had turned it on. mumbo, in his haste to try to kill gem, didn't bother checking if everything was safe. by the time he noticed the minecart was moving on its own it was too late.

You know, if I had just witnessed a live bird erupt out of a dead woman’s chest cavity, flutter to the ceiling, and shake a fine spray of human viscera off itself, I don’t think that my first impulse would be to remove my splash-protection visor.

A Nova Scotia excavation company has been fined $80,000 after a worker died when scaffolding collapsed on one of its job sites. In a decision released Wednesday, a Nova Scotia provincial court judge in Pictou, N.S., found the failure by Blaine MacLane Excavation Ltd. to ensure scaffolding was properly installed led to the 2020 death of Jeff MacDonald, a self-employed electrician. The sentence was delivered after the excavation company was earlier found guilty of an infraction under the province’s Occupational Health and Safety Act. Judge Bryna Hatt said in her decision she found the company “failed in its duty” to ensure that pins essential to the scaffolding’s stability were present at the work site.

would love to write a romance book where the main characters' names are noah and iris and everyone loves it and it gets super popular and people are obsessed and are posting meta about it and someone asks me on twitter (i get a twitter specifically in preparation for this) why i chose the names noah and iris. they have done the research and know that noah means both 'to rest' and 'in motion' which encapsulates his character, while 'iris' means rainbow which could be a nod to her being queercoded, which many readers have picked up on. i reply that noah is NOAA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and iris is IRS, the Internal Revenue Service. i never again answer another question about this

In 2023, the World Health Organization classified the act of firefighting as a Group 1 carcinogen, just like asbestos and tobacco. While firefighters are socially lauded for their vital work, the invisible danger of cancer still looms large. It’s not just fires that release toxic chemicals — it’s also firefighters’ uniforms, which are filled with “forever chemicals” known as PFAS.

Holy shit

Can I just say

I am so

motherfucking tired

of these exorbitantly huge

vehicles with front hoods/grilles that are as tall as my head

These need to have the shit taxed out of them and heavily regulated instead of being subsidized as farm equipment and being given out like candy, people are basically like bugs on a windshield if they get hit

I like that in the acolyte, characters continue to comment on the dangerous nature of the protagonist's Job, as a meknek.

The protagonist who's name is OSHA.

COVID denialism and misinformation has led to Olympic athletes not even washing their hands because they wrongly think it will help them become more resistant against disease.

There is no evidence handwashing weakens your immune system. There is no evidence that adopting unsanitary practices makes your immune system stronger. But there is a lot of evidence that handwashing and other precautions protects you and others from infectious diseases, especially in risky environments like bathrooms.

Hello, 👋

I hope you're well.

I humbly ask for your support by reblogging this post on your account to help save my family. As newcomers to Tumblr and GoFundMe, we are in desperate need of your kindness and support. 🙏❤️

My previous account was deleted, and now I'm reaching out, seeking your help to share my new account. Our sole hope is that your generosity can help my family endure this merciless war. 🙏🌹

Thank you sincerely. 🌹

Hello @m8hammed , I will do my best to share your campaign 💚 I have shared your pinned post, and I encourage my friends to take a look at your pictures and learn your story. And consider that a high number of notes isn't always a good thing for the tangible goal! Much like how a campaign will stagnate right before its goal, it's as if people see a large number of notes and assume everyone else is helping.

The only way to be sure someone helps is by helping :)

So please be a helpful compassionate soul and follow my friend @m8hammed and learn the names and dreams and hardships of his family.

Move forward in the world with good intention and care and you are always on the right path🙏

I am sorry this world is cruel and stupid. I am sorry you must implore petulant strangers on a cheap web site for relief. Many citizens of the empirical core believe themselves to be benevolent, good people yet have a wicked greedy little heart that only has love for themselves. These are people who complain about the price of gas to a person with a photo of their bombed, burnt car on their wall, man! PLEASE😭

Please feel free to send an ask, I may not always answer them all, but I do try to reblog a post from you when I see them! God be with your family and bless your health and see your goals met with perfect speed my friend🙏🫂💐💝❤️🖤🤍💚
