This is how the Karens and Mommy Blogs sound when they complain about "Mercury in vaccines" but it's just one mercury atom in a molecule that no longer behaves like elemental mercury

I was going to make a sodium joke, but Na.

Even just H and O on their own can be quite scary. Throw them together and BAM, ubiquitous lifegiving liquid.

That's one thing that annoys me about lithium batteries. Every time there's an EV fire, people pop out of the woodwork to shit on the FD for using water to put it out.

Just because the name has lithium in it doesn't mean it's elemental lithium.

Salt is scarier than the elements sodium or chlorine because, according to Wikipedia, "Salt is essential for life in general." Without salt, there wouldn't be humans creating things like chlorine gas. Life is scary.

Fun fact; cats can drink straight seawater. Mad good kidneys or something, so the soup is going to get far too salty for a human before it gets too salty for a cat.
