It should also be noted that you are not required to swear on the internet.
TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 5 days ago
Correct, you’re not required to swear on the Internet. That’s why there are a trillion other words to use if you’re not comfortable with it. “This kind of stupid packaging foam.” “This kind of annoying packaging foam.” “This kind of ovnoxious packaging foam.” If you want to say “fucking”, then you can just say “This kind of fucking packaging foam.” The censorship is useless and distracting. Commit to the word you want to say or use another word; nobody’s going to punish you for swearsies here.

I didn’t even want to touch it in case bits got on me

Keep it in case you need to make napalm, perhaps?

Fuckin’ A! Two fingers of unleaded in a pickle jar, stuff it in there. You can fit a whole TV worth of packing in a quart jar.
PRO TIP: Dry in the sun on an old cookie sheet, cut up with scissors, pack it out.

Personally started stockpiling last summer. New solar panels? More napalm. Dad just got a smart tv? Napalm. Replaced the old laptop? Funnily enough, napalm.

Expanded polystyrene

As far as plastics go, at least it can decompose. Black soldierfly larvae can eat it!

Source?
pennomi@lemmy.world 5 days ago
I was both mistaken and correct.
I say mistaken because here’s what I was thinking: mealworms have been known to metabolize polystyrene for a long time:

I say correct because there is also active work on tailoring BSF larvae to do the same thing:

Yeah, styrofoam’s notoriously bad for the environment. Plus just annoying to deal with. I hate it.

Nothing some acetone can’t take care of.

What did you get?
Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 5 days ago
New Lamps from Walmart. I love them. It helps that my old lamps were the shittiest imaginable.
d00ery@lemmy.world 4 days ago
They look really nice and adjustable brightness too. I think good lamps make a room much more cosy in the evening.

A mess.
NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 5 days ago
Always makes a mess and it’s always statically charged so good luck getting rid of all the little pieces that invariably fly everywhere without a fight. Not to mention the environmental issues with it. Yup, fuck that shit.

Ugh, I always end up having to use a ball of masking tape to pick up the little bits, and I always miss a few.
