Are you joking?
Sadly, no. About 0.5% of our brain mass is microplastics.
https://pirg.org/articles/new-research-finds-plastic-in-human-brains/
Additionally, the average brain is about 1300 grams. 0.5% of 1300 is 6.5 grams, and plastic credit cards weigh roughly 5 grams.
0.5% is really hard for me to visualize. A credit card in everyone's brain is unfortunately easy.....
Once I put my head up to the EFTPOS machine and the payment actually went through
EFTPOS is the fastest payment system in the world for identifying Australians on the internet. If you need to camouflage, you can use "card reader" instead. I don't know when you'd need to camouflage like that, but these are interesting times.
