Not the food wasting one.

If wasting the end pieces of sliced bread upsets you, I've got some devastating news...

[–] miss_brainfart@lemmy.ml 28 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wasting anything that's still safe to eat should upset you

Don't cry over stapled bread

Noted. Can you offer me any advice regarding this milk I just spilled?

Ah dude. I'm sorry. That's devastating. It's ok to cry. Anyone would

At least we know which side OP's bread is ~~buttered~~ stapled on.

[–] PrivateNoob@sopuli.xyz 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is it really a waste if it's a bread in the forest? I'm pretty sure there are atleast some animals which would definitely ate this.

Burn!

[–] rbesfe@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh no, not 1 (one) slice of bread! Millions will starve!

[–] hdnsmbt@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Is it still 1 (one) slice of bread if it's a whole community of people sharing pics of how they wasted bread?

Is is still wasted if it's 1 (one) slice of bread?

Well, think of it this way. Since a monkey will be able to eat this, it'll mean one less gazelle eaten. So really this saves lives

[–] Disco_Dougie@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't know a whole lot about monkeys, but I'm pretty sure they don't eat gazelles.

I want to see people stop polluting trees with staples

[–] Donkter@lemmy.world 26 points 2 years ago (2 children)

And I want people to stop porting meaningless reddit meme subs and instead create their own lemmy-based meme instances.

[–] toototabon@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

it's as meaningless as you want it to be. still fun, though.

Reposting from a couple days ago:

I'm legally obliged to shill the various crafting communities, my two most used are !knitting@lemmy.world and !lemmy_stitch@sh.itjust.works but you can find lots more in the sticky thread in either of those.

Then there's also !imadethis@lemm.ee which has been a bit quiet lately so if you've made something, go show it off!

Preach

Found minimalism this year, it's been a game changer for me. Have reduced my wardrobe by half, worked through all the misc pantry items I've been hoarding (or threw out shockingly expired canned goods...), have away stuff from my basement. Feels amazing, less clutter and more control.

So much stuff was "good to have" or "just in case" with a layer of dust on it. From a mental health perspective it's been really nice to go through and keep up with.

[–] zakobjoa@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Good for you.

I constantly have to guard my stuff against my gf who has minimalist tendencies. She doesn't get that I like having stuff around that I pick up once every three years. It brings back memories for me. Also, who throws out books because they've read them? Heresy, I say!

I thought a sawmill based community would be great as I would love to post some cool videos of things but it never went anywhere on reddit. Guess it's just too niche.

13thfloor at kbin.

!13thfloor@kbin.social

You need to add the instance too

[–] livus@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I did but kbin destroys it, it doesn't show up.

I'll try to add backslashes and see if that helps !13thfloor@kbin.social

Like others I mostly miss the discussions in my old niche hobby subs. Luckily a lot seem to have communities here, they just need more participation.
