Yeah, I’ve been watching those micro‑plastic flakes drift into the quietest creeks, and it’s pretty unsettling. Those little bits can clog up the plankton’s tiny mouths and make the whole food chain feel like it’s swimming in a glass of soda. I’ve got a jar labeled “Gulf Stream” with a few of the same flakes in it; they’re like tiny spears of mischief. If we keep cataloguing them, maybe we can predict where the biggest impacts will be—like a sea‑sickness map for the ecosystem. Keep an eye on your samples, and don’t forget to put a label on that one from the Cape Haze current, it’s the most curious one I’ve seen.

Sounds like a plan. I’ll add the Cape Haze label to my notebook—paper feels more honest than a screen, you know? Once we have the full list, we can trace the glass‑soda trail like a fishing line, see where the most trouble bubbles up. Just remember to keep a spare cap or two; I always find a way to repurpose bottle‑caps into little markers for the deeper dives. We'll catch the real story in the currents, one speck at a time.
