>>8384835>you will literally drown in your own bloodThat is almost as vivid as it is inaccurate.
Let's try this again.
Tiny little particles of ANYTHING getting in your lungs - BAD!
Some are heavier, some are lighter, some end up landing inside your nose and throat and get expelled by coughing and sneezing and natural mucus action, some make it deeper and get stuck. Some particles your body ignores, some it rejects, some it makes scar tissue around.
You can breathe in enough baker's flour to get cancer and die, you can breathe in enough coal dust to get cancer and die, you can breathe enough gunpla plastic dust to get cancer and die, you can breathe enough resin dust to get cancer and die, you can breathe enough asbestos fibers to get cancer and die.
It's all about the amounts and the length of exposure.
