About the recycling thing; if it's small enough to fit a regular ICA kasse then just dump it in those and throw it out in the bin. That's what I do.
It's now illegal to throw worn out socks in household trash but if they wanna check my trashbags they're welcome to dumpster dive as far as I'm concerned

If one cannot enforce a law, there is no law.

But I did hear that those that collect old garments suddenly had much more to do so obviously people do follow it.

Wait what am I supposed to do with holey socks now? What?
And no, it won't fit in the bin. The house looks like a hoarder lives here. I need rid of a few hundred kilos of trash.

They don't make recycling convenient here. At all. I have to take it to the containers, I have to separate it, they don't do curbside pickup, I don't drive.
I don't recycle food. I don't recycle anything. It all goes in the effin bin. Eff em.

We're supposed to put them in recycling bins, or whatever they're called. Together with other types of clothes if I'm not mistaken. Not allowed to burn them anymore.
I can't even begin to imagine the thought process of those actually following this

As Khajiit said; it's a friggin mess. They want us to recycle but do everything they can to make it as difficult as possible.
Yeah; eff em. I'm not gonna do their work for them. I throw everything in the bin too and what doesn't fit in that, I take it to work and throw it there

Apparently there's gonna be a spike in coffee price come Monday. Ten bucks for 450 grams of coffee. I imagine next time they'll simply take all my money at gun point without giving me any coffee at all.

Why'd it go up? I haven't bought coffee in over a year myself
mirocu

Pick any excuse and they are using it. Climate change, bad crops due to no rain, too much rain, inflation, general price increases etc.
You have to drink coffee to count as a Swede, btw. It's law

It will make for great hunting this deer season! Now to buy a bipod for it.

Do you skin the deer and do all that too? I do all except cutting it up into pieces; know a retired professional for that

I know my father and Brother-in-Law have skin deer, I might just leave it up to them.

He's like, it doesn't feel bad. Well, no [censored], it's called "diabetic neuropathy" and basically means you don't feel pain due to nerve damage. His foot is going to go septic, he'll lose toes, and it'll be MY FAULT.
