Did yours also get fucked up in the microwave but still used for food anyway? That thing’s gotta be at least 50% of the microplastics in my brain.
Herc and Megara went through college with me, moved back into my mom's with me, through a couple apartments and into my first home before they finally split in half in the dishwasher.

Yeah, unfortunately even the fediverse suffers from a heavy dose of US defaultism.
I've got more people assuming I'm an American here than I ever did on Reddit. I think a specific of type of online leftists just assumes you're from the US if you don't agree with them, because of course there's the countries they support and then there's the US and nobody else lol

just a PSA for those of you unaware; these plates up until 2004 contained lead paint. If you're using these plates, uh. dont. Use them as decorations or get rid of them immediately.

Came here to say this. I only recently found out and got rid of all my #7's immediately. I don't think I'll accept hand-me-down plates anymore after that.

Indian here! We have steel.

I forgot my mom even had those dishes.
#8 And as a sidenote I took them as hand-me-downs and only stopped using them this year.

Patternless. Plain white. Which works well, because if you break a plate you don’t have to worry about whether they still make that pattern.
