Yes. I mean I saw bits of that clip myself, it looked like that. But I guess you can’t spell contention without content.

Edit: You know what, you’re right. It isn’t. This is from the speech.

But… I don’t see how it matters at all, I don’t think perfect sourcing is really the point of this meme, we all got the reference obv. I mean not the moose thing, but the Melania thing, that I got.

I am so glad I missed this 60’s reference. That means I’m young!

I don’t get it.

Isn’t that a still from her speech yesterday?

…Suddenly

Since the 1950s…

I spread military propaganda as a community service!

I may be in a minority but I don’t think you should put too much trust in Veritasium, he’s known to keep fairly industry cozy opinions.

Just stay critical.

Except there is literally not a single unscratched and unchipped teflon pan in existence in any household kitchen.

You will consume those flakes and particles and the wear and tear in your food over years, and it certainly adds up.

And teflon scratches easy, and then you eat all the tiny little flakes every time you cook. Teflon is especially super bad, very carcinogenic.

I hate it, I don’t use it unless absolutely necessary. I make do with steel and cast iron. Nothing is worth having permanently contaminated food, day in day out, over years and decades.

Consequences are well understood in that they are bad and have long term effects on your hormone regulation.

One study showed teen girls in Copenhagen develop breasts a whole year earlier than during the 80s-90s, and it was directly shown to be the effect of PFAS in our consumer environment for lack of a better word.

It was a big thing, EU made lots of regulations about it. I know in an adjacent country they banned use of thermal receipts (normal receipts you get in the store) and some other measures. Don’t know what came of it long term but I stay very aware about what I touch in stores and stuff I buy.

It’s bad. It gets easily absorbed by the skin and fucks with your hormone system. It’s in all kinds of stuff- non stick pans, can linings, receipts you get at the supermarket, consumer electronics, earbuds (bad to have stuck straight into your brain in the fine membranes and capillaries of the ear canal), LOTS of clothes (basically all plastic derivatives they mix in).

With clothes or shoes and so on, if you go to an outlet and touch a PFAS coated fabric, you’ll get this thin sickly little film of oil on your fingers. That gets absorbed straight through the skin, and also now it gets on everything you touch, your face, the food you eat…

Someone mentioned PFAS, I would add regular old exhaust fumes. Terribly bad for you, terribly bad for the brain, effects linger and compound.

China did studies on it back before they went hard core renewables and electrical, turns out breathing fumes drops your IQ by so many points, and it takes more than 24 hours to kind of get back to normal, but if you whiff it again before that the timer resets.

I’m summarizing from memory, but that’s the gist of it.

Fuck cars, fuck fossil fuels.

No, we must worship the shoe! The shoe!

With these fuckers it always seems right though.

How many divisions does he have?

What family and social circle?

…It wants to be my friend?

I check-marked all alternatives!
