Good. I hope the ocean keeps spitting it back at us until we learn our lesson.

It’s like complaining that your glass is spitting water back after it’s full and you keep pouring water in. What else did you think would happen?

I hope the ocean spits a Godzilla out and humanity is wiped off the planet.

She doesn’t destroy “humanity,” just a city or two and then back into the ocean she goes. Sometimes she even helps people, she helped save us from Ghidra the three headed dragon from space, for instance. She’s not as clearly benevolent as Gamera, friend of the children, but she’s still ok in my book!

I’ve just been thinking about how the Earth is generally dirtier than it has ever been.

Making all this plastic was a huge mistake, and the generation that was duped into supporting it won’t be around to live with the consequences.

Now I’m wondering if there is more of less actual dirt on earth than there was 100 years ago. I’d assume less.
