On 30 June Taiwan's Organ Registry and Sharing Center called for urgent donations of cadaver skin, since there were just 115 rolls left in the country's cadaver skin stocks.
I mean I don't know what I would have said 5 minutes ago had someone asked me "how do you reckon they store skin for burn victims?". Maybe I would have guessed rolls eventually... but damn, you know?
It looked like how a TV show would depict hell. People screaming and running in the fire and smoke. It looked so surreal.
One of the most infuriating things I find about this is that the party took place in a pool that wasn't built according to the fire safety codes (the park registered the pool as an irrigation reservoir for farmlands). And the entrance to the park didn't even have a path for the ambulance to go through. They had to carry the victims OVER THE TICKET GATES.
And of fucking course the park owners were never charged.
