Original Content We have replaced actual civic duty with performative internet patriotism. Social media "likes" won't fix our rotting streets.

The youth spends hours on the internet criticizing the system and posting patriotic statuses, completely confusing this digital noise with actual nation building.
While spreading digital awareness is an important tool, it becomes entirely hollow if it is not backed by physical execution. The ground reality of our public spaces is deteriorating rapidly, and no amount of social media outrage or 'likes' can fix a choked drain or a garbage filled street.
If we redirected just 10% of the energy we spend arguing online toward taking absolute ownership of our immediate physical surroundings, the transformation in this country would be unstoppable.
It is time we stop being a society of keyboard warriors. Step out of your screens and face the reality of the ground you walk on.

Hey! I'm trying to lose weight and clean up the environment at the same time!
Hey y'all. Here is my latest adventure. Would love some feed back. I just ordered a fancy trash grabber! My main set up is like a modified gorilla cart that ties to my waist so I can carry my water and a trash can. I look like a goof for sure. But I think it's so fun honestly 😂

Discussion Can anyone recommend a good heavy duty litter loop/hoop/bag holder, please?
Can anyone recommend a good heavy duty litter loop/hoop/bag holder, please?
I clean up rubbish/litter in Ireland, and it's often very windy, which makes holding a bag open while using a grabber in the other quite difficult
My partner bought me a bag loop a few years ago, but unfortunately the bag would just slip out as soon as any kind of weight built up, and then it broke entirely. I don't want to buy multiple loops just to throw them away again

Is getting rid of your non household rubbish a nightmare?
With illegal dumping sites and fly tipping on the rise, I'm just curious how everyone feels about trying to take stuff to the tip/get rid of anything that isn't normal rubbish? Like if it was less hassle to get rid of stuff surely these problems wouldn't exist? Am i missing something? Are you happy with how your council does it? Definitely not bashing bin collectors more the system itself.

This morning's dog walk pick
This neighborhood is usually very clean. One really good thing, almost zero cigarette butts. But there's always a little something from the handful of morons that dgaf.

Removed: 76+ pieces of confetti
Someone released confetti at my favorite park in Seattle. Picked up over 75 pieces of mylar confetti and streamers. I’m sure I’ll find pieces for weeks.
