I genuinely believe walking is one of the best exercises you can do for both physical and mental health.

Many of our cities in north america don’t have good access to third places anymore, due to both availability and cost.

I refuse to use online dating/friendship services so I struggle to meet friends and partners in the new citiy I moved to. Everyone at the local bar scenes is 15-30 years older than me, my outdoor local areas are homeless emcampments or riddled with needles and litter. I’ve met some people at my local climbing gym, but I find it difficult to get there between the cost of climbing and my physical labour job.

It almost feels like if you don’t make the plans online you don’t get to meet/hang out with people anymore and I’m not a huge fan of that.

Your bones are not weak but its still not a good excuse to abuse a turtle by knocking on its shell.

Please don’t tap/knock on turtle shells. It would be like someone knocking directly on your bones.

Many conservation authorities look for volunteers for tree planting, invasive species removal, and cleaning up litter. They can be a great way to start helping your local areas.

We should defintely still make EVs, overall they are going to be better than ICE. We just shouldn’t force/subsidize everyone to have to buy and drive an EV like we did with ICE cars.

Electric cars aren’t going to fix climate change

Plus burning it allows those toxins to disperse across the environment while more traditional recycling can keep the toxins mostly concentrated on landfill/processing sites.

Or i could just plug my vacuum in when I’m done with it.

This was not an automated model of vacuum. Connection features for automated models makes sense.

Unlock more power for an extra $4.99/month*

*warranty period reduced by 1 week per use of MaxPower mode

Or even like modern wifi. I saw a vacuum with wifi capabilities. Do I really need to check my vacuum battery level from my phone?

So does shortened attention spans not count as any type of brain development change or is that not actually happening/outside of this study?

Dictators and war are not unique to capitalism, they are just more profitable under it.

Remember when people were conspiracy theorists for saying AI would replace a ton of people’s jobs?

1-800-got-junk? doesn’t care at all about its environmental impact. No sorting what so ever happens to what goes on their trucks it all goes to landfills. All the ads will say they recycle and that they repurpose old furniture but I was threatened with being fired when I recommended donating antiques instead of dumping a load of furniture.

More jobs and more profits comes before anything else in that company, including employee health and safety. Several times I was told to enter spaces we werent trained for (attics and crawl spaces) and carry waste I legally couldn’t transport (human/organic wastes and the laws states the driver is fined, not the company). One guy injured his shoulder during an attic job and was told to finish the shift or lose his job. Absoulte scum of a company with very sleazy management and possibly the labour board in their pocket as they kept “losing the files” when I tried to file a report with buddy’s shoulder (he was hesistant to report for fear of losing his job).
