Who said we can't multitask?
At what point do we ingest enough microplastics to become plastic and stop aging/decomposing? Asking for a friend.
Life in plastic. 🎶
It's fantastic.
You’ll leave a beautiful, mannequin-like corpse.
Oh my goose, thank you! That's the nicest thing anyone's said to me in a long time. 💖
Sorry, not meant as an insult, just a brain fart from the idea of people ingesting so much plastic that they become plastic.
Oh don't apologise, I figured it was! And it is also like the nicest thing someone's said to me in a while 😅
Well, you’re a lovely person.
Seriously though, I wonder if future anthropologists will be able to age their findings by looking at plastic cobtent, similar to radioactive steel
Damn. Carlin was right.
He seemed to lean left imo.
I assume this a play on words.
He was apolitical but a realist. As we know reality has a left leaning bias.
Damn that’s such a good pun, I didn’t notice at first
I assumed they already have at this point.
Everything is past the point of no return.
When life is microplastics, it's not fantastic...
