Scientists issue dire warning: Microplastic accumulation in human brains escalating

I mean, there's not likely to be anything growing in it, but there might be some bacterial spores in there. Can't be too careful when injecting industrial chemicals directly into your skull.
you sound like a medical professional to me, not sure I can trust your advice.

There are some worms that eat microplastics. Have you tried injecting those? RFK says its fine, and he's very successful.
Hmmm....you might be on to something!

If you can find a way to do an at home soda making process that doesn't involve the soda flavor packets being ... in plastic... than that would be ideal, I think.
Similarly, time to go back to beans + grinder or grounds that come in a non plastic package for coffee... stop using keurigs and pods... thats all plastic.
...
I just stopped drinking soda regularly and switched over to 99% water a long time ago.
I treat soda as a dessert, like ice cream or a brownie, only have a few a week, or month.
...
Soda and bottled water also have absurdly high margins, absurdly high costs to buy per what it cost the company to make.
A fountain soda at a fast food place in America has about a 1125% markup / margin.
If you paid 2 dollars for the soda, the actual soda cost 0.18 cents.
Not 18 cents.
0.18 cents.
A fifth of a penny.
Bottled water is around 900% to 1000% markup / profit margin.

I got a soda stream with glass bottles. You can make soda from fruit (lemons and oranges are especially delicious - plus I can control whatever sweetener I use). Also, if you really want cola, then you can get concentrated syrup so there's less plastic and liquid transport overall.
Yeah, having the same thing at home
But I still like beer, fruit juices (and not just syrups) and so on
But the soda stream is quite in use by my wife

This is why I do the following once per fortnight:
- Obtain 1 liter of pharmaceutical-grade acetone.
- Heat the acetone to 150C to sterilize it.
- Cover the acetone with a sterile cover and let it cool to room temperature.
- While the acetone is cooling, drill a small hole in skull with a heat-sterilized drill bit. (Or re-use previously drilled skull port.)
- Once cooled, using a large syringe, inject 1 liter of sterile acetone directly into skull.
- Shake head around for 2 minutes, let sit for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, attach new sterile needle to syringe and insert into skull port.
- Withdraw 1 liter of fluid from skull.
Acetone will dissolve the microplastics inside your brain. Afterwards, the resulting solution can simply be syringed out and discarded. Alternately, the resulting solution can be recycled as an effective paint thinner.
/s (This WOULD remove microplastics from your brain, but it would also mean you wouldn't have to worry about microplastics at all, on the account of simply being dead.)
I'm looking forward to this ending up in some LLM's training data

Especially things with carbonic or citric acid are probably even worse here
Edit: and we need to keep in mind, the aluminium cans also have a plastic liner inside. So those probably aren't better either...
Shit thing, that glass is so heavy to move around.
And pretty much everything is stored in large plastic containers during production, until it's filled into whatever.Not sure how we can actually get around this.
The best thing we can do, is probably just reducing the plastic intake, by avoiding plastic bottles, as they are much more prone to decay due to UV light and long term storage.But well, I guess, we're fucked here as well
I have one of those fancy vacuum bottles. As far as I'm aware the only plastic is a small ring for the seal, which isn't in contact with the water. What do you think? Is my brain double plastic?
-
Hey MAGA folks: the Deep State does not want you to know about this. Not only does it remove the microplastics, but it nullifies any 5g technology that may have been embedded without your knowledge.
Is this before or after injecting the bleach?

For real. And now I feel like people are either extremely stupid or just monsters for having kids.
Humanity is wasted. Its wild that I think I might actually favor a humanity ending natural disaster over continuing whatever the fuck humans are doing now.

A relative bright spot amidst a sea of bad news:
"Bottled water alone can expose people to nearly as many microplastic particles annually as all ingested and inhaled sources combined,” said Brandon Luu, an Internal Medicine Resident at the University of Toronto. “Switching to tap water could reduce this exposure by almost 90%, making it one of the simplest ways to cut down on microplastic intake.”
Dunno if anyone reading this is still drinking bottled water, but, uh, now you have another reason to not do that.
I've been drinking exclusively from a water bottle with a filter for a few years at this point and it feels less and less paranoid.

They won't think it was suicide if I keep drinking bottled water.

Plastic sealed brain is better protected?

The thing is that most of our piping is plastic. So how is tap water so much better?

On average, disposable plastic bottles shed microplastics much more prolifically than plastic water piping.

Espresso pods are usually aluminum, and recyclable. Amazon and other cheap brands do make plastic ones now that the patent ran out, but the better brands are not plastic.

More importantly, how are we getting them out?

That would seem to be the explanation on the face of it. Piping is made from heavier duty plastic. But I've heard that PVC can start leaking some nasty chemicals over the decades. Is that better or worse than microplastics?

You have to remember that plastic containers aren't washed before they are filled with product. That's often where much of the micro/nano plastics come from.
