I've got three dogs and get it. One dog is very old and needs special attention. Another is very young needing different attention.

When there is something wrong in my head their normal stuff annoys me. I try to remember they are being normal and it is I that is different.

I used The Swap Club to replace my wife's AirPods about six months ago but since then they always seem sold out.

Clean paper and cardboard are easily recyclable and worth money. I first figured this out over 30 years ago while taking commuter trains into NYC.

There were approximately one yard cubed wagons left on the platform to discard your already read newspapers for recycling. Local hustlers would often reassemble the papers and sell for half.

At some point locking tops eere put on so it was difficult to remove the papers. This was because the agency collecting the old newspaper was making money from it.

Fast forward. Some cities make it a crime to rummage through the recycling bins.

There is money there.

I never show the bottom of my shoe and think less of those who do. Learned this while traveling in Asia.

edit - Example of this is kicking my feet up on a stool at the local pub.

My kid wouldn't go to the bathroom at all during middle school. Said he would rather hold it.

Each recipe can have variations so one site is never enough for me.

For example, I am going to make curry pickled cauliflower. There are very basic recipes and those that add more ingredients. I found three on different sites and will merge them into one based on my tastes and ingredients on hand.

Sending an email to info@lemmy.world creates a ticket. Ruud got back to me slightly after 24 hours.

In a perfect world Pixelfed would be tightly integrated with Lemmy and Mastodon. Pixelfed is the Fediverse's image sharing platform.

I tried posting a picture from Pixelfed to Mastodon several months ago and it was not integrated at all. I went back to uploading directly to Mastodon.
