This is so dumb of course it's a controversy about veganism. It's so obvious that no imminent harm is coming from a community literally founded on the idea of reducing suffering. Probably switching instances sometimes soon

"vegans are so annoying they always try to force their opinions on you"

Which instance is the "fuck it do what you like" instance?

There are groups of people who are in genuine danger when around the person on the right

Fuck I need to clean my apartment

Veganism is unhealthy because of all the mental damage I get talking to people about it online

UwU

Climate impact, health, the feeling of superiority

From my understanding of the study they used an unverified method on a small part of the brain to get the amount of plastic in the entire brain. Which can be misleading because if you only look at the parts of the brain that are microplastics, the brain is 100% plastic. There hasn't been widespread replication of the results yet either nor has the paper been peer reviewed.

I'm sceptical especially with the microplastic doomer narrative going around. As far as I know the danger of microplastics on the human body is yet to be determined. But it's definitely alarming I just don't think it's responsible to be saying there's a credit card in your brain.

I gave the study a read. It's in preprint, it's yet to be peer reviewed and the method they used is atypical. Yeah I think disbelief is a pretty reasonable response since it's hard to imagine that much plastic wouldn't be making noticeable changes in behavior/physiology. But it's possible and the research seems rigorous

I don't think this is true

Ahh 0 up votes, 100 comments, my beloved

I almost want to say you'd have better luck breeding super intelligent fish

On the contrary they were a comedic genius

XD hell yeah bro

Back the fuck up cos I ain't halal

Man you can't be spending more than 30 seconds on a comment. If its taking longer to write out just delete it and move on. If you've really got something to say in longer than 30 seconds make a post about it

Yeah I'm always confused by the people who are like the downvote button is for off topic discussions. Like no that's reporting and functionally the downvote button is the "I had a negative reaction to this button" and the up vote is the "I had a positive reaction to this button"

Personally I don't downvote anyone because it just feels petty and pointless. Some of my favorite comments have loads of downvotes and to me it just makes whatever dumb shit I said funnier

Not watching that I'm just gonna pretend it reinforces my viewpoint

No I use kilo all the time as shorthand for kilogram. Context usually does the work.

If you don't I will literally die
