     When I first saw the title "Plant-Based Glitter Does Not Harm Soil Organisms", it was in a context that truncated part of the title so that it said "Based Glitter Does Not Harm Soil Organisms"

     @bonkers Nobody needs dessert either, but if it doesn't cause disproportional harm to the environment, I don't see why people shouldn't enjoy it.

     @bonkers @clacke Dessert can be eaten or not, simple choice. With glitter, there is no opt-out.

     @clacke sugar helps my brain spin, so dessert is not a completely useless thing.

     @mansr I had two possible interpretations, either you meant there is no opt-out of glitter, because come on, how can you not want glitter, and the other one was that once glitter is there, you physically have no way to opt out.

     I honestly thought you meant the former, so I thought I was making a joke by interpreting it as the latter!
