What's worse is we haven't replaced plastic straws with a good alternative. Paper straws fucking blow and I'm not going to carry around and wash a silicon straw with me at all times.

*Silicone. Silicone is rubber, silicon is a crystal.

Maybe MeatsOfRage is just really fancy? 😁

I mean, one alternative that you are carrying around at all times is your mouth. It's very rare that a straw is needed at all.

They had acrylic straws back in the 80s FFS, this isn't hard.

Or you could just not use a straw, only babies need them.
