Common Home Appliances Emit Trillions of Harmful Particles, Study Finds

1. “Global pandemic”?

2. Odd that they didn’t compare it to the most common sources of indoor air pollution. (Or maybe it’s not odd).

   Like, for instance, how many “trillions of harmful particles” are released by walking on a carpet, or putting on a shirt?

   The authors talk about deposition in the lungs from these devices, but just the nicotine deposition in the lungs from a single puff on a cigarette is over 1000x the weight of the total mass in this study.

   Gas stoves have been shown recently to be major contributors to indoor air pollution in households without anyone that smokes. Why no comparison to that?

   It is neat and noteworthy that they were able to measure the airborne metals given off by these devices, though. That’s interesting.

3. We’ve made it this far!!!

4. But how much autism is released per piece of toast?

5. They call me Mr. Matyag because of all the particles I emit!

6. Science concludes that living is the #1 precursor to dying.

7. Brushed motor devices, like fans.

   My wife has always got to have a fan on in the room when sleeping.

8. That explains it! We’re all dead now and this is hell.

9. I get it. Everything around us is trying to kill us.

10. Imagine what happens when wind blows and gets various harmful natural and manmade particles airborne.
