Not the food wasting one.

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

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

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 1 year 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 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] hdnsmbt@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year 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?

[–] dom@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year 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 1 year 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!

The community on Lemmy seems less about minimalism for the sake of being minimal and more about ethics, minimal pedantry ("should we stop taking pictures because they create clutter?"), and being cheap/frugal.

Did you have a different community or resource in mind? I'm interested, but only with respect to my stuff, and in a more "buy it for life" way.

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.

Link for kbin = @13thfloor

!13thfloor@kbin.social

You need to add the instance too

[–] livus@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year 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
