Let's be honest Osha does not have a gun. They have a bubble wand at best.
you haven't read the msds on what's in those bubbles
And every dipshit in the country complains about them trying to stop this exact shit.
Near future tweet?... "I own three Teslas. I know from experience that if you keep your windows up everything is guaranteed safe. People don't have any idea how good Tesla filtration and ventilation systems are..." And the comment goes on for hundreds more words of nonsense.
How many Elon fan boys are real and how many are bots? We may never know
"I love tesla but it's uhh very very not cool that my legs rotted off below the knee from driving in their tunnel, hopefully Elon fires whoevers responsible"
What if we kissed 😳🙈 bathing in the flesh-melting ooze in the Musk tunnel?
I said: "kiss me, you're beautiful - These are truly the last days"
You grabbed my hand and we fell into it Like a daydream or a fever
KEEP YOUR ARMS AND LEGS INSIDE THE VEHICLE AT ALL TIMES
you have been warned
up to TWO FEET? where is this shit coming from? this reads like an SCP
According to the article, it's not the completed tunnels, but rather, the dig sites. It's mostly normal digging byproduducts (silt, rock dust, sand, water), but also chemicals for making/setting grout. All of that stuff is "normal", but the outrageously lax safety standards have let it build up rather than be dealt with.
"Elon Musk Tunnels Oozing with Skin-Burning Chemical Sludge" is a sensationalist clickbait take. "Elon Musk's Tunnels-In-Progress Full of Improperly Stored/Disposed-Of Dangerous Chemical Waste" wouldn't spark the imagination so hard.
the fact that it's "normal" due to corner-cutting would be really bad if we lived under an economic system that incentivizes corner-cutting 
You just said literally the same fucking thing and think that's supposed to make it better?
...Fucking redditors man
No, it's not supposed to make it better. It's worse. "His tunnels are oozing with sludge" is mysterious, meant to draw readers in. The truth is, like every goddamn thing he's ever done, he's mismanaged it so hard and cut so many corners that he's caused yet another entirely predictable, entirely preventable industrial disaster.
I can hate Elon Musk and clickbait at the same time, mate.
Alright fair enough, it came across to me like trying to make a bad thing sound reasonable by making it sound mundane which is a common tactic of his supporters.
He's never going to even know your name, much less love you.
Sorry, did you think that was meant to be a defense of the man? Do you think his fanatics would ever describe him as "outrageously lax"? Read, mate, read.
It really doesn't read like a defense, not sure what these replies are on about
People here see a chance to try to crucify somebody they perceive as an imperfect leftist to show they're the one pure socialist and that takes precedence over reading comprehension.
Correcting misinformation is good actually.
this reads like an SCP
The Boring Company dug too greedily and too deep.
The Vegas Loop is the Dark Souls of tunnels.
It even includes a poison swamp!

He’s just trying to make Fallout New Vegas real because he loves video gaming like a boss
This was during construction only and it was only because of the caustic concrete mix.
I say as the psycho-reactive slime from the ghostbusters sequel slowly fills my tunnels.
I call it Ubik
concerning
This cannot be real
Normal Day In Vegas
Why do his fans not realize that he is very obviously trying to kill them with every single thing that he makes
Oh cool, I always wanted to drive through the real-world equivalent of the Star Lasso Experience.
Common sense tells me to stay out, but jrpgs tell me there's good loot if I defeat the sludge
THE SLUDGE
I had to click through to the Bloomberg article just to confirm this wasn't satire.
I'm sure mixing this stuff with 1/2 ton lithium ion batteries in a tunnel underground is going to be a fantastic combination.
“and the walls will ooze green slime?!?”
“oh wait they always do that”
Emerging from the tunnel looking like the Trashcan Man from The Stand.
Anyhoo
He's just a performance artist at this point
Looking into it
Teenage mutant neurolinkers.
Peep the Sludge
Why did I first think of Ghostbusters 2?
