I recently watched "Brief history of the Wrong Earths" by Hardcore Sci-Fi, not many of these are well known so you could have so much more ammunition for fooling around like that with people.

"flat earth? Nah, it's expanding bro! Oh wait actually it's 9 hollow earths one in another!"

I would have screamed "do your own research!" before just leaving.

What a great meme you have here, one question, where funny?

I don't know. There's a lot of plastic in the ocean, and as far as I know there are ways for it to go back into the rest of the ecosystem like water does, so plants will probably gather it as well. Less than animals but still some.

Regardless of whether you eat meat or not, you will get some of it in your system. Whether that's bad, and how much of it could cause issues is still unknown. From what I know there aren't any studies that state what effect microplastics have on our bodies. Probably because you would need a significant amount of people without any in their bodies as a base group, and with how much plastic is used by us every day that would be difficult to find.

Although, eating less meat is generally healthier, better for the ecosystem and cheaper (especially if you grow stuff, even in small pots near a window) so if you can switch to vegan/vegetarian diet without any health problems, you should give it a try but be mindful of your diatery needs, it's easy to not get enough vitamins or proteins if you don't plan your meals well which could lead to anaemia. Even if it doesn't work for you, at least you will know more recipes.

Also, I'm not a scientist, biologist or anyone with any credibility in this field, I'm a software developer and my biology is on high school level, so take everything I said here with a grain of salt since I may be wrong.

Sure, but how much really is biodegradable? Genuine question since I can't really find any statistics.

Even a systemic change wouldn't do that much, plastic doesn't break down into other things, it only separates into smaller pieces.

Even if we stopped using all plastic right now, the plastic that is already in the environment would still enter the food chain and accumulate in the top of it.

9 out of 10 dentist recommend!*

*in a questionnaire where we ask dentist which tooth paste brands they recommend, and every one of them recommended multiple!

Reading the part of this article about London being paralysed by tube workers I could only think about the Crowdstrike shutting down millions of systems and yet, life went on as if it didn't even happen unless you were yourself affected

Two questions... Why pink and not white? Second question, why did you order these panels like that? You wouldn't need them if you ordered it like any other meme, left to right then top to bottom.

Meme? A meme has a joke in it, a meme is funny in one way or another, even a shitpost has some comedic value. This on the other hand is a fucking ai image, if it at least had a good caption or even a title making fun of something. If in your opinion a meme is just an ai image, maybe instead of sharing your 'memes' just keep them to yourself and keep creating more hilarious images for yourself.
