Microplastics are released from plastic when exposed to heat, including leaching from tea bags into hot tea and plastic containers releasing nanoplastics when microwaved. While health effects are still unclear, minimizing heating plastic is a simple way to reduce exposure.
Microplastics are everywhere. You can do one simple thing to avoid them.
The biggest sources of microplastics have one thing in common: Heat.

I have a really hard time reconciling some things in this life. One of them is that my father bought me a copy of Our Bodies, Ourselves as a teen but also voted for Trump 3 times.

Don’t take medical advice from the current administration if it is not evidence-based and risk-to-benefit adjusted. We’ve long known NSAIDs can cause premature closure of the ductus arteriosus. Here’s an example of this after a course of just 6 doses over 2 days: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

Let me guess. Barron’s on the spectrum and he’s been looking for someone to blame because he thinks being on the spectrum is shameful, not perfect? There is always some long simmering personal score to settle or shame against which to launch blame, with this one. Always. #trump #tylenol

We’re not one country because we have been in a slow motion civil war. Make no mistake. This is not “politics.” We are beyond politics. We are a place with people fighting for legitimacy in this place. We are willing to see millions ruined or gone in this place.

The new iphone is thinner. It’s not like that makes it more discreet in my bra or pocket. It’s like that friend you know who went on glp-1 drugs to lose weight but didn’t need to.

RFK: "It's the biggest infusion of federal dollars into rural healthcare in American history."
Sen. Bernie Sanders: "You know why? Because you're cutting $150 billion for rural hospitals and putting $50 billion back. That's not an infusion — that's a loss of $100 billion."

There are people who want, will fully enable a dictator. They think it can be their dictator, a strongman doing THEIR will, a powerful extension of them. It never really works out that way. But it’s like that friend who is obsessed with that new terrible relationship that most can see will end badly
TRUMP: “A lot of people are saying maybe we’d like a dictator.”
He’s saying it. Are you listening? 🇺🇸

And what actual talents, ambitions do these ICE masked brofuses even have, to contribute to society? Culture purity? To have what? Nothingness. They represent mediocre. Storming around the place like that one asshat we all knew who peaked in 6th grade.

You all keep going on about The Epstein Files as if any amount of horrid info would get Trump removed from office. It won’t. Because 1. Any amount of UNQUALIFIED/HORRID is, they believe, just a reflection of liberals (“see, you libs are so bad that you deserve THIS 🤡 “). 2. They have all the guns.
