Someone used a Macrowave
Must have been one of these.
Why did I know exactly which video this was going to be before I even clicked on the link
Fun fact: most rubber is synthetic and made of plastic now, including car tires.
Another reason EVs are NOT the way forward. They’re heavier than ICE cars and so they go through tires significantly faster. I wonder if anyone has done the math on how much of our world is filled with microplastics from car tire treadwear. I imagine it’s astonishing.
Adding: It’s also not surprising to me if car tires are made of plastic these days. The level of engineering it takes to make a tire sticky enough to bring a modern 5,000 pound SUV to a full stop like the 3,500 pound sedans of yore has to be insane.
The awnser is 78% of all microplastics in the ocean are from tires.
So what you’re saying is that scientist’s laziness on the development of flying cars is what is going to lead to the downfall of man.
I always knew it…

But we have flying cars
its weoght would be dependant on how much of a battery capacity they have as its chunk of weight is just pure battery weight alone. An average model Y weighs in about the same as a large SUV. so if this statement was made in particular to the U.S, it wouldnt change much given how popular SUVs are. if you take away the EVs, the vast majority is just moving back to SUVs, which is ultimately the same problem.
EVs will lose weight eventually when there are faster and more chargers, and the necessity of having large battery capacities decrease.
I mean, but what of EV SUVs?
Idk, but the largest Cybertruck weighs 12 lbs less than an F-150.
model y is an EV suv.
the problem basically is that the people driving model 3.the 3 itself is also fairly heavy, but the assumption that if they were going to drive a model 3, the majority would switch back to a lighter sedan when in reality, they bought the model 3 because it was one of the cheaper EV options, and had it not been a cheap EV option, they would have driven a larger hatchback or SUV regardless.
for example I had a coworker who recently got a tesla. what he was driving beforehand was a V70 Volvo hatchback before he sold it to fund the model 3. the hatchback is only a few hundred pounds lighter than the model 3, which effectively isnt a significant amount of weight, given an addition one, or two lighter people would already make up the weight difference alone.
places in oven
“Honey what’s that awful smell?”
“Who knows. Probably the neighbor’s leaf blower”
Five minutes go by
“It smells like cancer”
“Maybe they are sealcoating their driveway, I don’t know, stop asking me”
Twenty five minutes later
Opens oven
“Fuck”
Retching, coughing “Sweet baby Jesus, what the FUCK is that?! Melted plastic? On my new casserole dish?!”
“Open a goddamn window”
“Open all the fucking windows”
“Mommy why is the house stinky”
“Charlie go play outside”
“But Daddy–”
“I SAID GO OUTSIDE CHARLIE”
from outside “Daddy it smells out here too, the neighbors are doing something black to their driveway”
Forbidden salsa
Old family recipe. Gently sprinkle 2 Tsp of turmeric on top. You won’t taste the rubber.
Why would I do that?! The rubber is the only good part in this.
Just needs some nutmeg
Meh … I’ve already got plastics in me already … so … munch, munch, munch
Damn non microwavable lid
Broccoli? You deserved that
Hey, Broccoli is great! >:(
