The paper also found the quantity of microplastics in brain samples from 2024 was about 50% higher from the total in samples that date to 2016, suggesting the concentration of microplastics found in human brains is rising at a similar rate to that found in the environment. Most of the organs came from the office of the medical investigator in Albuquerque, New Mexico, which investigates untimely or violent deaths.

“You can draw a line – it’s increasing over time. It’s consistent with what you’re seeing in the environment,”

We use plastic for everything, and that trend hasn't slowed. Over time plastics and their mini-bits have been found in every part of the planet, in the soil and air, deep in a glacier, you name it. There is no avoiding it. Everything you touch, eat, drink, and wear at some point will contain these forever chemical plastics.

It's scary

It's pretty alarming

There’s much more plastic in our brains than I ever would have imagined or been comfortable with

I'm so glad this is being studied so we can do absolutely nothing about it

It's okay, you're not useless. You don't need to have a use anyway, just be smol and wrap yourself in a cozy blanket and breathe slow. Insanity can't get through the blanket, it's a barrier that squishes you into a calm bundle of comfortable warmth. It's gonna be ok. We're here with you. We're gonna make it through.
