Plastic is very durable, will it make my brain last longer?
Also plasticity of the brain is a crucial function, if it benefits the plasticity that would be great too.
What is acceptable amount of microplastics you would allow into your brain?

It, checks notes, makes you stupid.

This is not a matter for personal action.
It’s up to environmental scientists to figure out how we can deal with it, and then it’s up to lawmakers to make the laws accordingly.Of course if you are in the USA you are probably on your own. 🤔

Please post a picture of the tag on the shirt you are wearing right now.
The overwhelming majority of microplastics in your body are polyester fibers, and most of those originally came from textiles.

we could control it if we took it seriously
I doubt that. It’s already too late. It’s literally everywhere.

42 microplastics.

420 microplastics?
fuzzy_feeling@programming.dev 3 months ago
all i can do is 69 microplastics…

That’s the answer
DragonsInARoom@lemmy.world 3 months ago
You cannot choose what the world throws at you so the acceptable amount is the amount that doesn’t cause a problem
Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 3 months ago
What if you have no idea what that amount is?
DragonsInARoom@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Them you either don’t know enough about the subject to do anything about it, or it doesn’t matter
Scolding7300@lemmy.world 3 months ago
All of it, if it helps with neuroplasticity

As many as I have now? They aren’t coming out and I don’t plan to off myself because of that.
OldManBOMBIN@lemmy.world 3 months ago
6, maybe 7
Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I got some fucking bad news for all yall
OldManBOMBIN@lemmy.world 3 months ago
What, they ain’t got that many? Fuck. Can I at least have one?

6,597,436. I’d leave the 6,597,437th huddling out in the cold.

konalt@lemmy.world 3 months ago
at least 2

Preferably none, but I guess the max would be when it began affecting brain function.

How many plastics does it take to get high?

See also lead. Its similarly in all of us.
queermunist@lemmy.ml 3 months ago
As many as I can fit.

100%. I’m trying to convert my brain matter into an acceptable substrate for circuitry.
LuxSpark@lemmy.cafe 3 months ago
You probably need microsilicons for circuits. Microplastics are similar to micropotato.
NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 3 months ago
Nah, I can just implant the chips. Need an insulator as substrate for mounting the components.

Dr evil it’s 2025 there’s far more microplastics in everyone’s brains already
