Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Ugh I'm dreading the day we discover turnout gear gives the wearer cancer or some shit. It's coated in all kinds of crazy crap.
The asbestos is in the middle somewhere so... Probably not?
After it's used it most certainly does.
Firefighters nowadays change their gear after certain operations before they get back on their truck. Or at least they do here.
Oh yeah, the carcinogens from a fire definitely are cancerous, and we're always taught to put our dirty gear in trash compactor bags and wash it in a special machine back at the station.
I meant all the coatings on the outer shell or inside the lining by our necks and wrists. That would get into the body through the thin skin there even when just walking around
I just wanted to share my knowledge from TV to be honest.
But at this point I expect pretty much everything we wear or use to be dangerous for us…
