> Bioplastics have come a long way since the days of Alexander Parkes. Today, these materials can be made from many renewable resources: cornstarch, beet sugar, kiwi skins, shrimp shells, wood pulp, even mangos and seaweed. They can function approximately the same as materials like vinyl or PET, the plastic most commonly used in drink bottles. But if these polymers don’t actually have a smaller carbon footprint than plastics refined from petroleum, they may only be another example of greenwashing,a misleading marketing tactic more about image than outcomes. That’s one of the problems with the fact that there isn’t yet a universal definition of “bioplastic.”
You don’t have to get angry when you hear opinions different from your own. It’s called being an adult.
it’s not about opinions alone it’s about someone’s obvious bias formed by opinions that has innacurate information. if someone’s opinion is leading them to lie and exaggerate, I have no reason to continue reading what they write, and I don’t.
you need to understand that in actual ‘adult’ world you don’t just validate and accept every opinion even when it’s based in false information.
Fuck, that’s actually true: “Mr Kissinger, who allegedly orchestrated the mass bombing in Cambodia in 1969 and in Vietnam and Laos in the 1970s as secretary of state under Richard Nixon…was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1973 for his efforts to conclude the Vietnam War. The award was described by critics as a move which ‘made political satire obsolete’. The Vietnam war was not over until 1975.”
The critic who said that was Tom Lehrer, who was known for political and social satire music (I highly recommend you look him up, he’s hilarious) and it actually did cause him to just.. stop.
I’ll always defer to Anthony Bourdain on the topic:
There is hardly a better way to avoid discussion than by releasing an argument from the control of the present and by saying that only the future will reveal its merits.

I don’t know who this bloke is, but I definitely think we should all start saying “thriving wage” until it becomes a thing
This makes me think of that line Hopper from A Bug’s Life and just the relationship shown between the grasshoppers and the ant colony:
In case you can’t see the quote very well, “Those puny ants outnumber us a hundred to one. And if they ever figure that out, there goes our way of life. It’s not about food, it’s about keeping those ants in line.”
Are you telling me that when i watched bug’s life i was actually watching a proletariat revolution?
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
