The soundtrack MIGHT be better than the film, but I still enjoyed my rewatch!

The final scene is a real treat for Portman-heads

If you had posted this in 2021 we would have enough money for the commune by now

Hey that’s not true! I don’t like 80s American media in general!

The bottom line is:

Microplastics are just the visible tip of the iceberg. We have invented nearly 100k new chemicals since the 50s and we don’t longterm health studies for ~75% of them. And we add hundreds every year. This is no time for hair splitting. Our ability to reproduce is on the mf line!

This is no conspiracy. The word “bombshell” in the headline is from a retired DOW Chemical chemist, but I don’t think “Big Chem” paid for this. They don’t need to! Media needs clickbait to keep the doors open. Which is why they were irresponsibly posting “Yup! There’s a credit card in your brain! 🥴”

The criticized scientists respond in this article by basically saying “yeah due to technical limitations of such a young field of study, it could be half as bad as we say or ten times worse”

But the average person will read the headline and think “oh so microplastics AREN’T a problem after all!”

Basically, the article (which I’m sure you, like most people, did not read) is WAY less spicy than the headline suggests.

A more accurate headline would be:

Plastic is in our bodies and that’s really bad but we aren’t sure exactly how much is in there yet (boring! 🥱)

This is just another example of incredibly irresponsible journalism. And by giving it more visibility at all, even if just for the bit, you are unwittingly doing the bidding of an industry with a body count that would make every evildoer in human history blush.
