Would aliens in 10000 years even be able to tell the difference between trash and … well, not trash? They’d probably just think that we were really into plastic. Which isn’t wrong - I literally bought a plastic mixing bowl this week (it was that or steel, and I hate the noise of steel bowls).
wood: literally porous, pain in the ass to clean, can’t go in dishwasher, and you have to oil it like a fucking engine
steel: heavy, dents easily, your kitchen is STOMP! now
(I think I recall a STOMP! performance played on PBS when I was a kid in the early '00s where they used primarily steel bowls but couldn’t find a clip)
“This is Trash Planet, former home of the Trash Aliens. They seemed to really, really love making trash.”
It was a ritual fetish act.

mixing bowls are the fucking worst
plastic: scratches really easily, probably toxic, environmental nightmare
ceramic: heavy af, breaks easily
glass: heavy af, breaks easily
wood: literally porous, pain in the ass to clean, can’t go in dishwasher, and you have to oil it like a fucking engine
steel: heavy, dents easily, your kitchen is STOMP! now

How dare they. This is Planet Dirt, not Planet Trash!
Planet Plastic Ocean.
