It's really disgusting how people just toss their old used stones out into the wilderness like they're just rocks or something... Smh damn litterbugs

Microstone is everywhere. Soon most of the planet’s beaches will be covered with teeny tiny rocks.

microstone pollution

A.k.a. sand? It's terrible stuff. It's coarse and irritating, and it gets everywhere...

The ocean is full of it and our beaches are awash with the stuff.

One time I ate a spoonful of microstone. Gross
