Never understood why some people care so much if you take stuff out of the bin, A. You're recycling B. Usually those bins charge by the weight so you'd actually save them money plus you make money so there's literally no downside

It is the same in the US. If it is on the curb and the curb stretches about 3 or 4 feet inward the supreme court has a ruler that it is considered abandoned property and anyone is allowed to take it, although it isn't worth it to get into a fight over it.
@E-BikingAdventures 2 ай бұрын
It has nothing to do with how much a curb "stretches". It's 6 feet from the road side or curb. That is serviceable land. Anything left there is considered abandoned. However, being under construction with equipment may have some exceptions.

It’s thankfully not super common but yeah, there are lots of folks out there who totally buy into the manufactured infighting to feed their personal progress myths. So many people actually believe they’re “temporarily inconvenienced billionaires in the making” rather than the one bad month away from being dirty and homeless which more closely reflects the reality. If I could teach them I would, but at least you and I know their bad attitudes come from an absolute fiction

I already found something I could’ve used that for though so I definitely should’ve kept at least a piece of it! 😅
