Biodegradable Plastic
I
s there something of validity to this investment? I’m not sure.
What I do know is that the subject of biodegradable plastic has been the subject of scrutiny of materials scientists for many decades.
Part of the problem is the time frame in which you want the degradation process to take place. If you have a gallon of milk with a shelf-life of two weeks, you don’t need the plastic to last centuries, but if you have a case of bottled water in your garage in case of an emergency, you want the plastic to be good for at least a few years.
I’ll grant that the graphic below is, in fact, terrifying, but it’s factually incorrect; this does not represent anywhere near everything we eat and drink. In actuality, if you stay away from the center of your grocery store, you’ll avoid every one of these poisons, and you’ll cease to support the corporate control of our food.
Hmm.
The meme here points to a tragedy in U.S. history, but keep in mind that things have only gotten worse.
There’s nothing enviable about the task confronting the five Republican hopefuls running against Trump, especially when you consider the chorus of boos they receive if they’re bold and honest enough to point out that Trump lost a free and fair election in 2020, and God bless them, if they want to point out that the former president faces 91 felony charges stemming from four indictments.
Polite society lives in a world of euphemisms. If you have a low IQ, it may be more tactful to refer to you as “intellectually challenged” than “stupid.”
Before the advent of Donald Trump, the term “narcissism” was used very seldom in America; it normally came up only in the context of the Greek myth in which a young man was so taken by his own image, reflecting in a pond, that he eventually fell into the water and drowned.
In the politics of conservative Americans, the term “The Great Reset” refers to their desire to take government and social norms back to some point in the past. Though it’s unclear exactly how far into the past would satisfy those folks, it seems that a good estimate would be the 1950s, before Roe, the Civil Rights Act, gay rights, and certainly anything remotely resembling “woke.”
As suggested in the meme here, another reason the Republicans are getting killed at the polls is their effort to throw sand in the gears of the U.S. military. I’m referring of course to Alabama Republican senator Tommy Tuberville’s ploy to raise awareness for the need to ban abortion, by blocking thousands of promotions with in our armed forces, thus gumming up our entire defense apparatus.
As suggested by the Arabic proverb here, we face a real threat from Donald Trump who says that, if re-elected, he will use the federal government to punish his enemies.
