Hate to break it to you, but you are also full of Teflon.

[–] ladam@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

And Teflon is also a plastic

Sorry, it's hard to think with all this plastic in my brain.

Don’t forget the lead and steel.

I think they might be referring to when steel workers were exposed to heavy metals like lead, cadmium, and manganese through their work.

Unfortunately everyone is full of Microplastics and Teflon.

So we won’t decompose or stick to things. Where’s the downside?

That might be the creatures that are evolving to eat plastics.

These microplastics consist mainly out of bisphenol A, which bonds to estrogen receptors, that with waste water from "the pill" for woman making a boost in the last 30yrs. Which hardly gets filtered out of tapwater, might be the reason why so many young people struggle with their gender.

I dont mean this bad, but if your are hormonal imbalanced when hitting puberty, weird stuf happens. Just a brain fog thought.

Before you start to downvote. My daughter is trans with my blessing. But it really made me thinking about it. Mainly because she only drinks tapwater and seems like hooked to it. She is under the tap every 30min, doesn't like anything else to do drink.
