      I never realised plastic was a relatively new thing? I assumed people had been making stuff out of plastic for ages but it's only really been relevant since as late as 1980?

        Plastic is a pretty broad term. Rubber can be considered one and was used in the western hemisphere prior to industrialization. But the first synthetic plastic was bakelite and was invented in the early 1900s. Honestly I'm also surprised production stayed low for so long, but I guess it makes sense since it follows the oil boom.

        But yeah my favorite theory this month is that plastic overproduction will make endogenous male puberty impossible, as well as natural reproduction.

    Complete with the usual failure to mention that this kind of decision will result in real, material harm to trans women.

    After the revolution as a part of the Starm-reduction Program, when Keir Starmer argues that he deserves clemency, I shall quote those words of his back to him.
