I’m still thinking about that “is OSHA regulations Cop Behavior” post. Like. You know who thinks regulations are for losers? People who build submersibles out of logitech gamepads and rejected carbon fibre. People who trust starlink as their only surface lifeline.

Do you wanna be like the fine film on the floor of the Atlantic that was once a billionaire? Is that the hill you’re really gonna die on?

We have an expression in my field- “Regulations Are Written In Blood”

People don’t have fucking safety standards as a power trip, we have them because somewhere in the past, NOT having those regulations killed or maimed someone.

A lot of laws out there are bullshit- safety regulations sure as fuck aren’t. I have the literal scars to prove it.

Please please please remember that bosses and CEOs hate safety regulations.

Doing things safely cuts into their profits and lets workers survive long enough to learn.

If you're ever irritated at how long it takes to be safe?

Remember your bosses hate it twice as much!

Then be even safer.

Safety regulations are there because businesses see workers as expendable.
