SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•The road they drove to dump this trash literally takes to the landfillEnglish4·22 days agoI worked on regular cleanups of a wetlands near my old apt and the bike path that ran by. We’d pull literally tons of crap out of there but over time it got less and less.
I remember the 70s-80s and the trash but that doesn’t excuse littering even less now.

SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Doordash deserves it's fateEnglish2·4 months agoI cook a lot so I have never used DD and for pizza the place near me does their own delivery. I really hate extra fees.
SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Doordash deserves it's fateEnglish6·4 months agoProbably because the real trick is getting recognition. In the fog of a million voices on the internet all vying for your attention it is hard to make yourself a brand name. When people think of delivery now they automatically think of doordash.
SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Doordash deserves it's fateEnglish6·4 months agoYup. I’d make a tray of lasagna, in my bachelor days, and it would last me about 4 days. Of course I’d be really tired of lasagna by then lol

It never stays pristine but the worst of it took decades to accumulate. We found over a dozen tires, a safe, a beer keg, a beaten up rowboat, tons of old clothes piled up at an old campsite and of course the ever present cans and plastic bottles. We also worked on removing invasives. As time went on most of the trash was what got carried by the streams feeding it from drains. There was one time I found a car had been dumped off of the bike path and set on fire.
Thanks for cleaning things up. It is very satisfying if a bit frustrating too. It is one of the few things in life where the result is obvious and clearly positive. I’m always picking trash up on hikes. Maybe the owner of the land would be willing to assist you by providing a place you can deposit the bags of trash and they could truck it out weekly or so. We did something similar with the state (it was public land) and had a storage shed with tools a local business let us use.
