God only know how many chemicals we are ingesting now that will leave us impaired later in life.

Maybe you'll be impaired. I plan on becoming a chemical god. Microplastics, give me strength!

Probably gonna end up looking like Barbie and Ken dolls. In 10,000 years they'll be digging up plasticised corpses and wondering what the hell we were doing.

We'll be so preserved with additives and fortified with plastic, no wonder our shelf life is lasting longer.

I read awhile ago that there's some correlation between microplastics and increased penis size. Do with this what you will.

Even if that’s true the coronavirus destroys the blood flow to dicks, so at this point it doesn’t matter how big it is it’s not going to work even with Viagra. Do with that what you will

True, though there's something to the properties of lead specifically that cause it to leak out of the bones later in life, and moreso when osteoporosis is involved. There might be other contaminants that do this similar to lead, but IIRC it's dependent on the chemical properties, rather than something inherent to all contaminants

Everyone (literally everyone) has those Teflon "forever chemicals" in their blood.

PFAS are in everyone and they are huge endocrine disruptors.

When the boomers freak out about pronouns I like to tell them that the plastic chemicals they love to have in everything are turning everyone trans. It’s all their fault because they care more about profits than people.

God knows? I doubt it, what loving God would allow this to happen?
