no offense to older people in chat, but why do so many older USonians try to overuse appliances or reusable containers with worn out plastic in contact with food?

@chat@hexbear.net

is this a worldwide issue? my hypothesis was they got introduced to them as wonder materials of the future. even plastic sponges get reused when they clearly have molecule-deep filth in every crevasse

    some people have difficulty just throwing out the daily onslaught of junk-mail

    This reminds me that I accidentally solved junk mail. Our neighborhood mailbox got destroyed and hasn’t been replaced yet, it’s been a few months and every time I go to get my mail from the local dispatch center I never get handed any junk mail. I asked about that and the lady said they toss all that junk for held mail, lmao. I can’t imagine the box I would need to carry it all after a weeks buildup.
