I remember often playing in construction sites as a kid, and we once found a roll of fiberglass. we just decided to sit on it and play with it (I found it funny how it tickled my skin) 😭😭
Home Depot taking a stand against Woke masks.
Or some other stupid shit.
Why would I shop at Home Depot if I didn’t think guys with perfectly chiseled jaws and manicured nails worked there?
Description like that, someone may think you’re looking for some Proud Boys.
His neck isn’t nearly beardy enough.
Stop the liberal anti wallcandy propaganda. It feels so good to eat the wall candy. It tastes exactly like cotton candy but it’s available in my walls and my mattress
After all, if it wasn’t delicious, why would they dye it that delicious pink?!?
That some big ass bacon.
There are more nasty things you ingest daily. the most healthy people die early because of simply bad genes while some smoking couch potatoes rapists live to 100 years old
We need some cope though and semblance of control hence existence of religion, nutrition ‘science’ and rumba. People brains ain’t made to handle the raw reality
So you can feel good and safe doing bullshit exercises up until the last day before random heart failure
There is no scorn or contempt here don’t get me wrong it’s all fine as long as we feel good in my opinion. I wouldn’t think of anyone who doesn’t raw dog reality as a lesser being it’s simply impossible to function without some kind of copium mechanism for fragile existence whether it is wellbeing coaching, technobrosing, mysticism or Christianity all fulfills same purpose
It’s even better for you to adopt one of them and not handicap yourself with existential crisises every evening
Nihilistic optimism or bust.
I’m still working on the optimism.
Optimism comes easier when you have all the real estate you will ever need. I imagine if you are struggling it would be hard to find some kind of solace
If you are going to use reddit at least block the ads with revanced
The someone who wrote the text to image prompt, didn’t know what goes into installing insulation.
What is wrong with it other than lacking mask, and probably overalls?
gloves, the part where you don’t want fibers in your hand.
It’s kinda itchy, but modern glass-wool might irritate your skin and lungs, but afaik there aren’t any know health risks in handling it.
Can’t tell if the pic is AI or not, but your point stands and applies to a much larger issue with the slop being generated at a death-spiral pace across the internet.
Most of the people trying to replicate “stock photos” on the cheap have no clue what the subject is about or how it should look, so if some South Tanzanian family decide to make a few bucks pumping out content with help of their local internet cafe, they can generate the most professional pictures of people doing all kinds of activities. Pictures which get picked up by someone else somewhere else who is trying to make a guide or informational content, again for a few fast bucks. And this story repeats at all levels of human society at all levels because of capitalism. Every time, something is lost, some detail missed, some cultural context glossed over, and this is how we lose human history.
And eventually, inevitably, one way or another, humans.
Stock photo creation has always had the problem of not knowing what the subject matter is supposed to look like. Take a look at desktop computer assembly/maintenance or medical stock photography. The newer problem is that it’s happening faster; more laypeople are able to produce more incorrect stock photos.
It’s an ad. Ads were slop long before AI.
Clearly AI look at his hands
While this definitely is bad, I think people tend to be a bit unreasonable about this stuff.
Fiberglass is not asbestos, and by the way, asbestos is not uranium.
Do wear the proper PPE, yes, but also don’t be neurotic about it. Even full-time asbestos miners don’t always get related cancers. If you removed some without knowing, studies show you’ll be fine. Your body can and does eliminate asbestos, albeit very slowly.
And again, fiberglass is not asbestos, and doesn’t cause mesothelioma. It’s still not recommended to breathe it in, especially not on the regular, but you don’t need to live in fear of it.
You ever get fiberglass in your skin? Shit sucks.
Thankfully no, I do wear gloves and a mask when I’m handling this stuff ! Im just saying it’s not going to kill you.
How have you managed not to get fibreglass on your skin when handling it?
I used to install it professionally, and even with goggles, a mask, and overalls tucked into your socks and gloves, that shit gets everywhere.
I’m pretty sure I just haven’t handled large enough quantities of it for that to happen. I’ve never installed it myself, I’ve only had to take it down for minor roof repairs, and put it back if afterwards.
It’s not that they don’t want to sell it to you, it’s just they don’t want to force you to wear protective equipment, so your employer can cheap out on it.
Also isn’t Home Depot one of those very christian corpos in the US? If yes, then there’s also a non-zero chance they think wearing protective equipment is “gay”.
Folks, is staying alive gay?
One of the founders is a hardcore Trump guy, but he’s not part of the company anymore. The company itself splits its donations between Democrats and Republicans. (That’s one of the tricks of a two party system. You can split your donation in half and win either way.)
They’re not overly Christian the way Jimmy Johns or Chick-fil-A are.
fellas is it gay to not die
Also, it’s the president of Slovakia, Peter Pellegrini…
Hard times in the country
The forbidden cotton candy 😋
Why is he kneeling on that board? He should be balancing his knees directly on the roof beams - get those kneecaps wobbling
i call em roof bananas because you gonna slip if you walk on em and not the plywood
Lol, I got yelled at for wasting time cause I went back down to get a scrap piece of board and some knee pads. After really slowing down an hour in, he went down and did the same. What’s the point of buying stuff that helps you work easier and faster if you’re not gonna use it?
Fiberglass is food, isn’t it?
Of course, it’s moist and delicious
Ads disguising themselves as regular posts (e.g. the “LPT”) is bad. It gets worse when someone screenshots and reposts the ad, presumably even for free. But why does the R****t ad make it all the way to Lemmy!??
It’s ok, you can say Reddit.
just don’t use the hard R
Can’t figure out if that would we ahddit or weddit.
I’m glad people are talking about what a bullshit trash hole of an ad platform that site is. but it definitely would be funny if OP blacked out the brands in the image just out of spite
In this case its more like an anti-ad once OP posted it here, as its showing the incompetence of the company.
he got safety glasses tho 👍
