Hey, isn't this interesting? Turns out Mastodon is actually way bigger than @gargron originally thought! It seems that its userbase has been significantly undercounted.

By how much, you ask? Well, we're talking about 407,000+ monthly users!

So, with these new numbers, Mastodon actually boasts an impressive 1.8 million monthly active users (MAUs).

But hang on, that's not the whole story. The Fediverse itself is even larger than Mastodon. There are millions of people connecting to the Fediverse through various platforms like Lemmy, WordPress, Firefish, micro.blog, and more! My hunch is that these platforms might also have been undercounted, although I can't confirm it for sure.

Study linking poor clearance of BPA with Autism and ADHD. They are not claiming that this is a cause, though there is some speculation in this article.

“The research found that kids with ASD and ADHD couldn't clear out BPA and another similar compound called Diethylhexyl Phthalate (DEHP) with as much efficiency as other kids, potentially leading to longer exposure to their toxic effects.”

@VeeRat @Judeet98 @chu @actuallyautistic Folks, don’t store or especially heat your food in plastic.

@dalias @VeeRat @Judeet98 @chu @actuallyautistic I honestly use hard plastic bins in my pantry for dry goods, but avoid softened plastics, like ‘tupperware’ and ‘rubbermaid’ for storing food.
