Agree. We’re a species still very much in its infancy.

And then watch videos of eating it 3-4 times a day for the next 4 years.

I feel like we could benefit from a support group. There has to be dozens of us.

And behaving. If not, then I believe he believes he is above all of this.

Good point

Ah I’m sorry

Anybody else disappointed after watching the most recent season?

Great question. Since we evolved consuming “fresh”, non-salt, water our physiology revolves around certain set points for normal neurological, renal, and basic cellular function. Consuming salt water changes the osmolality of the blood, which then causes shifts of fluid to try and balance the change of osmolality which negatively effects neurological function since we evolved to function within a strict range of osmolality, sodium level, etc. The body manages this from the pituitary/ adrenal / and renal perspective to maintain neurological function. If you could create a situation where the normal isotonic function is reset to a more hypertonic environment then that would be the start. I’m only familiar with human physiology and pathology but perhaps someone who is familiar with fish physiology could comment on how fish stay “hydrated”.

If evolution has taught me anything there will be probably be a section of the population who will become tolerant to microplastics. Perhaps already started. Also, perhaps those who are accumulating the most, who will come to evolve with it, are showing signs of low IQ /cognitive decline. As a result, they reinforce the accumulation of microplastics via lifestyle/decisions, further propagating the cycle. Hmm, perhaps this explains Trump and his supporters. Sorry, hate to make this political, but I couldn’t help myself. This would explain though our continued decline into Idiocracy.

That’s impressive foresight/imagination, I’ll have to check it out. ty

This would be a great plot for a movie. The organisms thrive on our pollution but in a sad twist of fate produce gas that we are unable to tolerate and all die off

Don’t forget Russia

I’m using Liftoff! (iPhone). Love it, but don’t see that option. Are there any iPhone apps that will allow this that you know of?

A short 110 lights years. Let’s pop over and say hi

Really wish I could figure out how to set up a filter for this POS so I don’t have to keep encountering him.

Earth truly is beautiful

Looks like they’re having post-coital talk to me

Keep the jar and put the sauce back in it and put only the noodles into the Tupperware.

I see what you’re talking about but I’m pretty sure this picture was taken in the 80’s
