Comment on YSK: Regulations don't exist because governments like them...
SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 1 week agoAnd you just know the second someone got hurt they’d turn around and sue you because you didn’t tell them not to do that. Even people who know better will cut corners “Ehhhh, I don’t need to find my safety glasses. I’m just grinding this part for a second…”

100%, all of that.
I once owned and raised exotic reptiles, I remember being told “Take precautions in your terrariums, if there’s a way they can harm themselves, no matter how remote, they WILL find a way to maim or kill themselves with anything you put in there.”
I realized over time that this rule applies to all of us.
I am just astonished the concept of blanket safety rules is getting pushback on the same website where people routinely show gifs and clips of people suffering freak accidents at worksites.
