Turns out that microplastics in human bodies may not be as bad as feared. The most recent article I read concerning this is that early findings are that normal/average amounts of cardiovascular exercise (ex. walking) per week will rid the body of microplastics through sweating.

Don’t get me wrong here. That may be good news, for now, for us humans. However, there is still a lot of research that needs to be done. Not only for its effects on humans, but all the other environmental issues as well.

Did you read the article? Do you understand, technically, how Bluesky differs from Twitter (X)?

Preference?

Yes. This is the best explanation of why people choose the platforms they use.

I don’t believe it has anything to do with people’s fear. More money means more marketing power. It’s that simple.

Yeah I agree.

I’ve seen hundreds of those photos on Bluesky today. Very encouraging. BTW, my neighbor (across the street) took his Trump flag down this week.

Bluesky is great. You can follow me there if you’d like to.
