Also fun fact, some plastics melt into masses of black hydrocarbon that will then spontaneously catch fire & assist a plasma fire reaction anyways! Make sure it's microwave safe first!

Please, PLEASE, I am begging you as both a parent and someone who is sick of all this THIS, go vote for your school boards. Even if you don't have kids, that's how these reactionary dipshits got their feet in, that's where the book bans and library cuts start.
