        I’m ready to shit on boomers for a bunch of things like housing, education and job competition, but asbestos is not one of those things. They probably were more affected by that fuck up than any subsequent generations. Same with thalidomide.

          I suppose it’s different everywhere, but I see a lot of asbestos that has been left in place behind a coat of paint, like a cancer landmine waiting for someone else to tear it down.
