What is Doomer? :(
It is a nebulous thing that may include but is not limited to Climate Change posts or Collapse posts.

I'm not sure why they chose a spoon, but the article is saying that it's a plastic spoon worth of microplastics - not a spoonful, but the amount of plastic needed to make a plastic spoon. It's an extremely confusing measure, and a bit much for my plastic addled brain
i'm still confused, how many football fields is that?
i think it's about 3 centiburgers by mass
Anything but metric lol. Also that's definitely worse than just a spoonful.
I think you'd be able to fit the plastic from a spoon in the bowl of a plastic spoon
Yeah they increase neuroplasticity haven't you heard 
I have 4 plastic spoons full of plastic in my brain 
Okay so maybe we need to…do…something.
Surely 
is the solution! /s
I'm legitimately concerned there's a threshold for too many microplastics in the environment and that once we pass it life will become unsustainable.
But for a glorious moment in time there were mountains of funko pops and wrappers for packages that contained 3 small cookies in landfills.
And lots of shareholder profits! Don't forget what's most important after all.
maybe human life, but bacteria are already appearing that can digest various kinds of plastics if they cant find better food. nature is healing.
Imagine if that's all we ended up being in time. A brief flicker of immense plastic production and away into the dustbin of history.
"Imagine," you say, like that's not the most likely possible outcome...
Truly the darkest timeline.
"death cultists die en masse", most unexpected headline
Imagine all the people,
Leaving a common trace...
I don't think ending life in earth is that easy, besides it would just incentive lifeforms that can break down plastic over time. It might become unsustainable for humanity however.
Just a spoonfull of plastics helps the memories go down
title is confusing it's not a spoonful of plastic, it's enough microplastics to make a spoon, important distinction
Not trying to shame you or anything (/gen), this is a good post, but there's a couple old threads too:

With some good comments if anyone is interested.
ohhh didn't see them 
You did, but the plastic made you forget.
tru
you will be microplastics and you will be happy
in the matrix there is no spoon
in the irl there is a spoon but it's in your head
woah
We could use 
and his comically big spoon right about now. 
Stalin and his comically big plastic spoon
Only a spoonful
the spoon: 
Could be worse
Hey, look on the bright side! At least we never told porky or any of the Protagonists of Reality^TM^.....what to DO!
Just a spoon full of plastic
in your fucking brain,
your fucking brain
your fucking brain
Ill bet some folks have up to two spoons of plastic in their otherwise pristine skulls.
da brain spoon
This is likely to be an inaccurate and inflated figure. The methods used in this study have high false positive rates and there is some doubt as to its usefulness in detecting microplastics in the human body.
This twitter post discusses the paper in question and links to a paper critical of the methods used.
They say jump
You just say how high
you're brain dead
you got a mother fucking spoon in your head
