40 Of The Greatest Household Dangers From The 70s — A Nostalgic Thread

Also, OSHA was founded in the 70s which explains a lot. In many ways, it’s sort of the best time to be alive. Health and safety are taken into account more than they ever have been.

This Twitter thread by Twitter user Memorial Device hilariously reminisces about 40 of the greatest 70s household dangers.
