Honestly I remember hearing that plastic molecules are stable and inert, I thought microplastics wouldn’t cause problems beyond accumulating and “clogging”
I mean… fiberglass and asbestos are actually chemically inert, yet they’ll still fuck you up good. It’s a bit silly to think any foreign contamination is harmless.
Lead has a very stable nucleolus. Forever chemicals (PFAS) were named that because they were stable. CFCs were pretty harmless too until we learned about ozone layer.
Anything that industry makes and distributes in large quantities throughout the world is pretty bad because by the time we learn about long term impacts, it’s everywhere
but remember the mantra of these cretins for the past century or few; “the solution to pollution is dilution!”. Never mind all the demonstrably terrible effects of quite a few things in the parts per billion/trillion…
What! You mean the bioaccumulating micro particles are not totally harmless? I’m shocked! Shocked I tell you.
What’s next? Are you gonna tell me water is wet, or fire is hot?
Don’t get me wrong, having the empirical validation (along with a mechanism) is nice, but this should cone as a shock to absolutely nobody.

Well, not that shocked.
Oh god you’re going to make me “ackchually”
If water makes things wet, and water is surrounded by more water is that water not also wet? 🤔
I think wetness has to be a solid surface with liquid sticking to it, and since there is no surface, there is no wetness.
One exception though, ice can be wet (and of course extremely dangerous if it is)
Ice is a form of water, ergo water is wet^•
