OK, FUCK YOU!

I'm concerned that you're secretly trying to turn Romanian...

God I love this meme so much.

I've seen them, never tried buying any. I'm guessing they're steel? Would be easy enough to recycle, because you can easily separate them from other metals via magnets.

But as a daily use, cleaning them would be hard, and I wouldn't trust to drink with one in any kind of restaurant. Maybe specialized automatic straw cleaning equipment will appear at some point, but for now I don't trust reusable straws being hygienic.

@hj @shpuld
Ideally you'd want to reuse paper straws to make other paper/cardboard products. Compost is the last thing you want to do with paper/cardboard stuff. Technically you can, but it's not the easiest thing to compost, and it's a waste.

But from the discussions I've heard when this entire mess started, the issue is that straws are too narrow/small to throw into the normal paper shredders, so they currently can't actually be processed.

Places like McDonald's apparently invested money into custom infrastructure to handle plastic straws, precisely because of their small size leaves them harder to deal with. And now they're forced to do it all over again because some stupid politicians behind a desk that have no idea how the world works.

She looks quite pleased...

@icedquinn @shpuld
Recycling itself is somewhat a scam anyway. There are very few materials that actually bring a return on investment for recycling, and most of it actually happens in China anyway. You're not actually recycling your own trash, you throw it away into China, thinking they'll take care of it responsibly.

@shpuld
Life without straws isn't worth living.

@shpuld
This is why "green" advocacy is retarded. This is what "green" advocacy brings you, along with shitty straws that are no longer recyclable and now get to rot in your landfill.

@emilis @galena
I'm sorry, but I'm afraid you failed your test. And if you don't get an A at the next test, I'm afraid you'll have to repeat the class.

She secretly wanted the d.

@emilis
Who are you calling old?

@Xalef
No, apparently I can after all. But the UI is kinda stupid about it.

@icedquinn
Technically, they're not allowed to say it works until they get FDA approval. Which they don't. And probably won't ever get.

@icedquinn
Have fun buying into glorified food supplements: "RaDVaC vaccines are complementary to commercial vaccines, and do not preclude the use of other vaccines."

Wait... is masto not able to mute threads?

@icedquinn @Terry @pasture @graf
Considering how stupid some posts have been here, I thought we already reached that point.

@Terry @icedquinn @pasture @graf
HOW DARE THEY NOT GIVE THE VACCINE AWAY FOR FREE! THE NERVE OF SOME PEOPLE... ACTUALLY TRYING TO COVER THE COSTS OF MAKING MILLIONS OF VACCINES! THEY SHOULD JUST LOOSE THE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IT TAKES TO DEVELOP AND PRODUCE THESE THINGS! IT'S FOR THE BETTER GOOD! QUICKLY, WE MUST ENFORCE SOCIALISM FOR THIS SPECIFIC FIELD OF OUR ECONOMY!

If you're gonna tell me you trust a "vaccine" that an unnamed group of people worked on as a hobby over the current commercially available ones, for me that's like saying you'd trust ReactOS to run your nuclear facilities.

@icedquinn @Terry @pasture @graf
Looks like unverified BS. How you could have more trust in this is beyond me.
