2 months ago I was getting hype because bunkers and tunnels were making a popular comeback thanks to Hamas and the Hasidic bros in Brooklyn were digging a tunnel for their messiah. Now? Nothing. No more tunnel discourse. What happened?

Boring Company’s scarce output…has also come with a massive buildup of waste, the consistency of a milkshake, that’s said to burn the skin of anyone who comes in contact with it.

…the chemical sludge was filled not only with the commonplace byproducts of sand, silt, and water, but also accelerants used to set the grout to build the tunnels. As the sludge built up, so too did its associated safety risks — and as the workers told Nevada’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), people getting burned by the sludge was an almost routine occurrence.

…some workers were scarred permanently from their accelerant burns.

Beyond burning people on the regular, the sludge literally gummed up the works in other dangerous ways as well — though apparently, nobody’s been killed yet.

As Boring employees told OSHA, for instance, an intern almost got crushed by some two-ton concrete bins last summer when they collapsed because its metal brackets had become overloaded with the stuff.

The agency ultimately fined Boring more than $112,000 over eight violations it deemed “serious.”
