My girl Jessica coming in with some hot facts and searing truths regarding the war on plastic and the ableist rhetoric surrounding it and how a lot of the focus on straws is largely performative activism. (Video contains closed captions for those who need them.)
(As an aside, I love Jessica, I’ve been watching her videos for a while. She’s very vocal about her disabilities and illnesses, as well as LGBT issues.
