Basically everywhere there's water except in space now.

i’m sure there’s microplastics in space by now…

Wouldn't be surprised if they were in space too, eg. from plastic parts in satellites that have broken up

I believe they tested pfas in the air in the most remote place we have test sites so yeah. Not just in the water sadly.

Sounds like if we keep going we’ll finally have male contraception other than condoms, that is surgery free!!

When you turn your head to cough, the microplastics doctor checks em too

If they didn't, then logic dictates: you're not human!
