This implies the person knows the person’s birthday yeah? Just confirming.

They didn’t tell me how much energy it takes to put your mind to things. I can barely stay awake for a normal day length without putting in the effort.

That’s actually an interesting one.
The ‘p’ could have a different meaning for a variety of languages. ‘Puissance’ in French, ‘Potenz’ in German, ‘potential’ or ‘power’ in English, ‘pondus’ or ‘potentia’ in Latin, or ‘Potens’ in Danish (probably the Danish one originally, since it was a Danish chemist who first introduced the measurement).
It’s very fun that because of the vagueness, various languages can have its meaning directly translated to their own.

Are we supposed to avoid talking about misogyny like this? Because this wouldn’t be a divisive topic if men didn’t try to force women to have pregnancies they aren’t ready for.

We can see already from the free market of the goods and services, and the free market of ideas, that free markets tend toward worse outcomes pretty much every time. If anything, a free market of violence would tend towards a world where only assholes survive.
That is my bad, not explaining this clearly.
Our formations of plastics usually utilizes petroleum products being formed into long polymeric chains. That’s what provides the pliable, even stretchy nature of many plastics. However, we don’t make all plastics out of petroleum - we also use resin mixtures and various other chemical processes for specialized plastics - PLA, for instance, is synthesized from plant starch. So, when we’re talking about ‘plastics’, we’re usually talking about petroleum products, but it includes other long-polymer-chain materials we artificially synthesize.
Having covered that, Teflon is often called a forever chemical, but it’s a chemical which we synthesize into long polymer chains so we can attach it to the surface of things. It’s how pans are non-stick, gore-tex is waterproof, and how many food containers are grease-proof. I am of the view that perflourochemicals classify as plastics because of that. And the reason it’s so pervasive everywhere is the same reason all other microplastics are everywhere: it chips off. You use a metal spatula on a nonstick pan - bam, stray Perflourochemicals, as tiny little solid microplastic flecks. And everything points to them not being inert to human health.
No, I think they want us to bomb data centers and gas pipelines.
Another link talking about the case. It was confirmed that the chemical at high concentration in the water was PFOA, which is the percursor to Teflon, and which was leaking from the factory site. It has the same effects as other perfluorinated carbines (PFCs). It is also the exact chemical group that we’ve been testing peoples’ blood for, PFOA and other PFCs. It’s the group of chemicals we’ve found strong links to various types of cancers. Research communicates that it is not inert in the body as a microplastic.
It is 100% the reason those cows withered and died like they did. it directly lines up with everything else we know about PFOA. The concentrations were higher than anywhere else, which explains why the cows died so rapidly. The only reason we don’t have complete confirmation is from DuPont meddling to try and downplay this, the same way they meddled by witholding their research on the health risks of PFCs, and the same way they stayed silent and didn’t act when the alarm was sounded by that Parkersburg farmer.
The water surrounding DuPont plants manufacturing PFOA-based materials was contaminated with those plastics. A local farmer videotaped his cows develop ulcers, grow tumors, and eventually wither and die. He constantly insisted that something was in the water that was killing his cows. Those same chemicals are now pervasive everywhere, in everyone’s bodies to some extent. It is 100% accurate to say these chemical compounds will kill you longterm.
Well ya got me there.
