Calling using scent diffusers "pumping soothing gas" sounds more than a little clickbaity.
I clicked expecting chloroform.
I know, they sell these at a smaller scale for your furnace/ac units, you just clip them onto the intake.
They are honestly pretty great, but i'd never classify them as 'soothing gas'.
True
Having said that, piss off with your marketing crap, companies
And all the sensitive people who break out in hives and loved it when work had a scent free policy.
I don't break out in hives but I can guess being in that subway would immediately give me a sinus headache.
That’s nasty it’s just gonna smell like piss and pine and vanilla

"Fragrances, particularly terpenes such as limonene, are associated with secondary chemical reactions in indoor air and can contribute to the production of formaldehyde, glycol ethers, ultrafine particles, and secondary organic aerosols (Nazaroff and Weschler 2004; Singer et al. 2006). Exposure to fragrances has been associated with a range of health effects, including allergic contact dermatitis, asthma and asthmatic exacerbations, headaches, and mucosal symptoms (Heydorn et al. 2003; Kumar et al. 1995; Steinemann 2009)."
That Pax is gonna turn them into Reapers…
I'm like a leaf on the wind, see how I soar.
ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL
Break the chains.
Oh, they did their research and are claiming it is totally safe! I am relieved, thank you big corps
They are just getting ready for the genocide.
aka they started using a pine scented air freshener
me sitting next to the subway pot head getting some second hand smoke.
They'll be putting it in the chemtrails next.
Is it a gas or an aerosol?
Try pumping some soma ... mmm ... I wanna be sedated.
