  • We think current pans are safe when used according to instructions but it’s all too common for

    • someone to use it at too high a temperature, causing outgassing
    • someone to use it while it’s scratched or flaking, causing ingestion
    • someone to dispose of it improperly

    But we need to start recognizing these are “forever chemicals”. We are adding them to our environment where they will accumulate effectively forever. How sure are we really that there won’t ever be problems, whether to us or any other part of the environment? How sure are we really that greater exposure over time, bioaccumulation, in every life form, won’t highlight later issues? Are we really that confident that we can afford to get in too deep, where cleaning and mitigation becomes impossible? No, it’s an effing stupid risk, especially for some minor convenience and when we have better alternatives






  • I almost used a Fred Roger’s quote for evil, before I caught myself. It was a thread about maga groupies abusing government power for personal agenda. Someone was lamenting how the Supreme Court made this administration above the law, so I almost said “Look for the helpers”. All those groupies and minions are NOT above the law and should face justice for their actions. As long as the charges are brought in three years, it could happen.

    Perhaps mass jail terms for everyone depriving human rights or violating the constitution or enriching themselves at our expense or following personal agendas will keep this situation from happening again
