    I’m really surprised at how many people have their why not to mix cleaning supplies wrong.

    Bleach + ammonia can make chloramine gas by the bigger problem would be making NCl3 and blowing your toilet up.

    Bleach + acid(like cleaning vinegar) is what makes chlorine gas that will auschwitz your bathroom.

    Bleach + rubbing alcohol actually makes chloroform, which is fun.

      I’m surprised how many people use bleach / bleach based products. You really don’t need such aggressive stuff the majority of times. Regular cleaners work just fine. Or is that an US thing where bleach is in every cleaning product or something?

      Just as an aside, Chloroform is not fun. It’s not at all like it is portrayed in movies, where you splash a little on a rag and it will make someone pass out with no consequences.

      Chloroform can render you unconscious in sufficient concentrations, but it will also cause brain damage and might kill you.

        Brother, you’re taking to someone who’s used a lot of DCM indoors with zero ppe. I mean technically dcm isn’t as poisonous as chloroform. I’m not going to live long enough through the upcoming AI global climate wars for long term effects to be a concern.

          I mean, isn’t that all the more reason to take care of yourself? Nobody lives forever, but there are some terrible ways to go.

      they dont want you mixing random chemicals, because they are worried you will make a special potion which gives you superpowers
