    Now Trump & Musk can't even push the federal employees out via their "special resignation deal". The new administration's sketchy stuff isn't going all that well.

    It's completely absurd, I agree. But it was also absurd to ban the straws in the first place. It's not like there weren't better things to focus on back then.

  7. Plastics are not friendly to the environment in any way and paper works just fine. Microplastics really are getting into the ocean and water supplies in large doeses. It is an area with some of the greatest use next to plastic bags which clog up recycling machines and do not dissolve.

    It is a fucking straw, you suck air and the liquid rises up. Paper does not work only if you spend an hour drinking through it. The number of straws in landfills and the ocean is pretty significant so I would say banning them at least has a purpose in mind that is not partisan in any way. Unless you work for a palstic straw company, banning them is trying to reduce waste in landfills and micro plastics and is not Dem or GOP.

    Un doing the ban is simply, BIDEN did this so I will un do it and claim a victory. If you think it is absurd to ban plastic then clearly you took a bias agaisnt it because Biden did it and never googled the issues with micro plastics. This is the reason also many stores are trying to limit use of plastic bags.

    Just because Biden name was there does not mean it was stupid or leftist.
