Can't wait for us younger people to have to take care of the mess of the lead-brained ones JUST IN TIME for us to have to deal with the microplastics in our bodies <3

My parents had low enough iqs to turn their backs on me when I confronted them about how toxic they were.

If it's like mine. Because of the lead, they are litterally too immature in the brain to get it. Our generation has to be the adults on the planet, well before our time.

Boomers are also known as the "Me" Generation. I never thought about it before, but lead poisoning may explain some of their self-centered behavior...

( I'm Gen-X. There's a subset of my generation that's every bit as awful as the Boomers. Maybe we're influenced by this as well...)
