Great. I've been breathing all week.

[-] Spitfire@pawb.social 10 points 7 months ago

Shoot, me too.

Not breathing is hard.

[-] Nfamwap@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Not for long though.

[-] xploit@lemmy.world 10 points 7 months ago

Oh boy I can finally stop breathing to stay alive!

Good news everyone, article says nose only - just need to commit to full time mouth breathing

Where do the plastic go after they are inside us?

[-] ProgrammingSocks@pawb.social 1 points 7 months ago

Everywhere. They are very, very small. Small enough to cross the blood-brain barrier.

They don't know. It's found in sperm and embryos too.

My guess: it's the cause of low sperm count

So thats why everyone is so fat

I like to think your body just uses it to replace some other organic materials. So effectively we're now beings who are like 0.5% made of plastic.

Mostly down the toilet.

I don't think this is what the smart people meant when they said neuroplasticity is a good thing...

[-] R00bot 3 points 7 months ago

Yeah, okay. Great.
