Help I poured gasoline down my kitchen sink
I thought it was a water bottle so I poured it down the sink thinking it was water but then I smelt is and it was gasoline. I didn’t read the bottle but it was gasoline. I accidentally poured about 2 cups of gasoline down my kitchen sink. What do I do??
Found a video about carboard with melted wax and tried it with some cotton balls
This thing burns around minutes
One cotton ball can burn around 5 minutes to 10 minutes but paired with 2 or more it can prolly burn around 30 mins. It also has great resistance against the wind. This is very good for fire starters.

Not Sure If This Fits But It Sure Was Loud
Someone destroyed the toilet at Laspadas.
I’m not sure where else to post this but I’m trying to figure out what happened here. The cameras recorded smoke from the bathroom at around 3 am and the store closes at 8pm. There’s no one suspicious on the cameras. However we think someone might have put a timed explosive in the hole at the bottom of the tank but we’re not sure how that would even work. Can anyone possibly help me out with what might’ve happened?
Where?
Hello, wanted to ask, where can I buy those strobe fireworks that go POP POP POP POP then make a huge explosion sound in the air? If i cant buy them how do I make them?
I was looking through old dry cleaning journals. I found one from 1950 that featured a full-page advertisement for carbon tetrachloride. 40 pages later, near the end, there was an announcement of the death of a dry cleaner from carbon tetrachloride.
