Licking bismuth would be very very very very very bad

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 8 points 4 months ago

Why? Bismuth is pretty harmless from what I can find. It's not great but it's way better than lead (which it replaced in a lot of applications). Based on what I read, bismuth probably wouldn't hurt you if you gave it a lick.

Are you thinking of benzene?
