Between the microplastics, the pfoas and other fluorine based stuff from 3M, and the lead in fuel that airplanes are still allowed to use, and the lack of a more natural diet, it’s no wonder we’re all so screwed up.
It’s worse than “allowed” to use, in the US it’s more like “required to use”. Newer engines that work on unleaded gas exist, and even some older engines are perfectly capable on unleaded gas. However, the FAA has to test and approve each part that goes on an airplane, and it’s a ton of work to do that for every type of airplane engine. Unless the government subsidized such testing and paid for unleaded fuel tanks to be installed all over the country, it’s unlikely to change anytime soon.
No. No no, the chem trail people cannot be right. This is the worst day. (So far!)
To be fair, I think this is for gas engines and not jet engines. So big commercial airports, and the
conchem trail generating traffic, are in the clear.No, it’s just the smaller airports and tiny fields used for crop dusters. You know. The ones that are literally everywhere. :(
well that and being told for your entire life that you could be anything you want and do anything with your life that you chose as long as you worked hard (oh, and voted for tax cuts for the rich).
People were using lead in day to day life for thousands of years.
So?
For thousands of years it wasn’t aerosolized. It isn’t even debated anymore. It’s a known and accepted fact that it has made people dumber.
Nothing new under the sun
“One study speculates that Roman wine contained as much as 20 milligrams of lead per liter. Over time, the researchers said it would cause a “decrease in fertility and increase in psychosis among the Roman aristocracy….” Lead was also suspected to have been used in Egyptian winemaking vessels.”
Yeah, it was simply added directly to the food as a sweetener. No biggie…
If the researchers are pretty, I would like to have my testicles in that study.
Microplastics, son! 💪
ingredients, recipe for
They say every, but no one’s checked mine yet.
You are a heavy sleeper.
Is it too much to ask for them to wait until I’m awake until they play with my balls?
Prude
I just don’t see what I get out of it. Other than microplastics in my balls.
microplastics are their own reward
How do you think they get the microplastics in your balls in the first place? Can’t have you knowing.
If I knew, I might have let them put some extra in for good luck!
As far as you know.
Every tested testi. Testis of non-testee testi’d are not tested.
Fine. Please urinate into a coffee mug. Someone will be by soon to collect the sample…
Pee is stored in the balls.
They said “every testicle in study.”
Yours were not in the study.
Can you prove it?
yes.
Not even in the Mayo clinic?
They’re calling but Dr. Ham on 3 so hold the Mayo
They stayed above the waist.
Fair enough, how are you doing now? Any word out from them yet?
We’re looking into intensive therapy programs at the moment. Hopefully we’ll find something by the end of the week, but we had to wait until my daughter’s school year was over.
Ah man, sorry to hear you are in the midst of a health issue Flying Squid! Wishing you a full recovery. Lemmy wouldn’t be the same without you!
Thank you!
For what it’s worth, I hope they find something to get you well again.
Thanks, me too!
We really have sacrificed our species atop the fire of industry.
Got us to the moon in a relative jiffy though. Makes you wonder what majority of industrialized life ever burns itself out vs external circumstances.
We’ve been pretty up ourselves about it though, a blank flag waving on the moon will be cold comfort for the burning remains of our civilisation. I could imagine this being the inevitable end to an intelligent species, smart enough to destroy itself but dumb enough to destroy itself.
This is why we’ve never seen or heard aliens out in the universe. Every civilization burns itself out faster than they can solve long distance space travel. Maybe the Great Filter is just the inherent nature of sentient beings. It would make me feel better to know that every other civilization to ever exist in the universe also destroyed itself in this manner, but maybe we are a special level of stupid.
TIL about the Great Filter. Thanks for the rabbit hole!
All by design. The powers that be want to limit the world population. Slow kill is a tool.
BTW, in testicles like sperm? Or somehow melded to the organs?
Which is why reproductive rights are being stripped away? Can’t have it both ways.
Live in the U.S.?
Check all the ingredients of everything you eat and drink. You bathe with, you wash dishes with, you wash clothes with, you use for lawn care etc… Even medications are forms of slow kill. All of which is approved by governing bodies like the FDA.
Wait. Both left and right?
Even the center one?
Wingus and the ping pong boys attack again
Are they all speckled & colorful like in that thumbnail stock photo?
The stock photo is of plastic pieces that are too big to be considered microplastics
The microplastics are probably mostly colorless/white
Aww, was kinda hoping that at least there’d be a party in my balls.
Rub a lil icy hot on em
If your idea of a good time involves masochistic discomfort, ok
This is just joshin’ around, pal
Me joshin’ around too, buddy
Just sound in some glitter
Excellent idea, my fellow intellectual! furiously destroys my own urethra with a rusty deck screw caked with shiny plastic shards
Y’know nobody forced you to write this.
My brain did.
So the pee isn’t stored in the balls, but the microplastics are
So is RoundUp according to an article I read a few days ago.
PVC is stored in the balls.
There’s microplastics in your urine too.
Wait so microplastics in one ball, pee in the other?
Sometimes they switch places to keep you guessing
The micro pees are in the micro P’s
What I love about this is the canceling out of the unholy intersection of ideas in the Republican Party of forced birth and environmental deregulation.
All the evil billionaires need a plethora of desperate people so the veil of the Christian sanctity of life thing gets trotted out and behind the scenes they want maximum profit so they tear down any limit or mitigation of the collateral damage their industries cause, and wouldn’t you know it: turns out you can’t have both things. Poetic justice, really. Almost a valid argument for the existence of an Illuvitar like being.

Rubber balls and liquor.
Our dicks are now reclassified as Nerf Guns.
Can mine be the BallZooka? It shot like 30 balls in 10 seconds.
So can we call them plasticles now?
These were the testicles, here are the resulticles.
When they’re made of plastic, they’re called nuticles.
guess i gotta take them off then
I’m gettin mine removed in 3 weeks
hell yea rid yourself of those micro plastics
Good for you! I still have mine, but they were disconnected a few years back, much happier with them now and I hope you will be too
