Everything about that Pasta Zoo menu item is crazy.

She isn’t “minimalist.” She doesn’t advocate throwing things out for the sake of “minimalism.” She is interested in helping people who have begun to feel oppressed by their stuff. That’s it. I’m guessing that you have stuff and feel judged for it? Hey, I have stuff, too! I embroider, I sew, I do dabble in a couple of…

Well now I feel less bad that it’s almost impossible to return opened makeup in the UK :)

I agree, broken and damaged items-with the store immediately putting it in the bin- I can get behind refunds on those.

As I said to someone else, I think make up should be refunded if it was sold broken/unusable or becomes that way within the first few uses, or if there is an undisclosed allergen. BUT it should just be thrown out - I’ve returned make up where I opened it to find the applicator was broken, and the shop threw it…

Stop returning makeup and underwear

If they even want it, I should add. I tried to give away some pretty nice wood furniture recently, not antique, and nobody wanted it. I asked 5 different charities and had to go through craigslist in the end which was a huge pain in the ass. And this was stuff that was like new. The charities were either all full or…

God that was weird. Even as a homely little teenager who definitely wasn’t having any sex I remember thinking that was 1. really odd that they were talking about this stuff in public and 2. very obviously a lie in 100% of the cases.

Not for all 11 year olds. There’s no fucking excuse for this at all, but early developing tweens is a thing that can happen and they’re frequent targets of harassment by older men.

No lies detected. When I adopted two cats from a shelter, they sent people to look at my apartment to make sure it was suitable for pets before I could take them. Can you imagine the uproar from the NRA if home checks were mandated for gun ownership?

I think part of the reason she doesn’t go into it much because Japan has an extremely complex system for disposing of waste.

I’m actually not very tidy at all. Part of the reason I love to throw things away is because then I never have to clean them again. And less furniture means less places dust can hide, which means I can do one half-assed sweep of the room and be done.

I’ve read different news outlets report that this is the 15th through 19th school shooting. In other words, we have already lost count and it’s February.

If you see a house you’ve seen on tv, say “oh, it’s the house from [tv-show]!”, and then move on. Don’t rent cranes, don’t throw pizzas, don’t be WEIRD. Seriously, it’s just a house you saw on tv

You’re confusing the drunken brawl at a party with the drunken brawl at their house when their shithead son showed up with a gun and beat the stuffing out of Todd.

Atlee Bay sounds like the town where a sudden spate of werewolf murders takes place in a Netflix Original movie.

One of the characters I’m playing now is in a similar boat. He’s a fancy-pants bugbear ranger and we keep running into bad guys who...uh...own things. It all started because one innkeeper tried to send us on a quest to a cave so that we’d be killed by giant spiders (long story). We went back and killed the innkeeper,…

“Some of the best parts of D&D is playing the way you’re not supposed to and seeing where that gets you.”

As in the Netherlands, French is the legally official language of France.

Because.... Believe it or not, the Netherlands recognizes only Dutch as its official language! Such a thing does not exist in the US, so why would be English the reference ?
