in the matrix there is no spoon
in the irl there is a spoon but it's in your head
woah
This is likely to be an inaccurate and inflated figure. The methods used in this study have high false positive rates and there is some doubt as to its usefulness in detecting microplastics in the human body.
This twitter post discusses the paper in question and links to a paper critical of the methods used.
title is confusing it's not a spoonful of plastic, it's enough microplastics to make a spoon, important distinction
da brain spoon
Ill bet some folks have up to two spoons of plastic in their otherwise pristine skulls.
Just a spoon full of plastic
in your fucking brain,
your fucking brain
your fucking brain
I'm not sure why they chose a spoon, but the article is saying that it's a plastic spoon worth of microplastics - not a spoonful, but the amount of plastic needed to make a plastic spoon. It's an extremely confusing measure, and a bit much for my plastic addled brain
Anything but metric lol. Also that's definitely worse than just a spoonful.
I think you'd be able to fit the plastic from a spoon in the bowl of a plastic spoon
i'm still confused, how many football fields is that?
i think it's about 3 centiburgers by mass
Hey, look on the bright side! At least we never told porky or any of the Protagonists of Reality^TM^.....what to DO!
I'm legitimately concerned there's a threshold for too many microplastics in the environment and that once we pass it life will become unsustainable.
maybe human life, but bacteria are already appearing that can digest various kinds of plastics if they cant find better food. nature is healing.
Imagine if that's all we ended up being in time. A brief flicker of immense plastic production and away into the dustbin of history.
Imagine all the people,
Leaving a common trace...
"Imagine," you say, like that's not the most likely possible outcome...
Truly the darkest timeline.
"death cultists die en masse", most unexpected headline
I don't think ending life in earth is that easy, besides it would just incentive lifeforms that can break down plastic over time. It might become unsustainable for humanity however.
But for a glorious moment in time there were mountains of funko pops and wrappers for packages that contained 3 small cookies in landfills.
And lots of shareholder profits! Don't forget what's most important after all.
Only a spoonful
the spoon: 
Could be worse
Okay so maybe we need to…do…something.
Surely 
is the solution! /s
We could use 
and his comically big spoon right about now. 
Stalin and his comically big plastic spoon
Just a spoonfull of plastics helps the memories go down
Not trying to shame you or anything (/gen), this is a good post, but there's a couple old threads too:

With some good comments if anyone is interested.
ohhh didn't see them 
You did, but the plastic made you forget.
tru
you will be microplastics and you will be happy
Yeah they increase neuroplasticity haven't you heard 
I have 4 plastic spoons full of plastic in my brain 
Polyester girl, so shiny 
that is going to haunt me for days you stinky avian
