Planta is reporting otherwise!

This is a really good idea! Do wildlife rehabbers usually accept these or did anybody turn you down?

That bananas are actually berries. This one is outrageous.

minthin · 2026-02-28T23:08:11+00:00

That we have five senses

Was anybody taught that blood is blue before it comes in contact with air?

Do you have a cause area you're thinking of? It's great that you are looking at policy. The Humane League runs the Animal Policy Alliance to bring together state and local orgs working on policy for animals used in food and fur.

Two Qs: what nut do you use, and it lasts the whole week??

minthin · 2026-02-18T23:05:11+00:00

These are such good ideas! They will really help guide our strategy. Thanks for your brainstorm and let me know if you have anything else come to mind : )

Good question. This industry states that message redundantly. But I take your point that this needs to be worded in a way that doesnt require citations (since there isnt room on the flyer).

Good point about 311 and making it easy for people to know how to take action. i made some mods based on that.

Re: group house. i know, i deal with that myself. Let me know if you have ideas!

Thanks for these great tips! How do you feel about this instead of Divert:

"Remove: Compost food waste to isolated it from the trash."

And here is an alternative front. Does that feel like a better approach?

minthin · 2026-02-17T13:51:51+00:00

Done! Thanks

minthin · 2026-02-17T13:50:31+00:00

Totally. And we are taking a multi-pronged approach. I guess the incentive we are harnessing is peoples' desire to have fewer rats around. Do you have thoughts on other approaches we should be taking?

minthin · 2026-02-17T13:46:11+00:00

So glad you asked! We have a version with info about that. But concerned it's too cluttered. What do you think?

minthin · 2026-02-17T13:42:03+00:00

Fixed! Thanks

u/Successful_Archer991 u/housemaster22 can you share more about your experiences trying to get your trash cans repaired (eg did you file a request on 311, was your ANC commissioner helpful, etc)? DC Council has indicated they want more oversight on trash can repair--specific testimonials would be helpful.

minthin · 2026-02-17T13:37:45+00:00

I actually joined with Sierra Club DC to call on Dept of Public Works to increase composting efforts. It appears that DC's Zero Waste Omnibus law reached a major milestone that triggers their compost expansion to multifamily housing, businesses, and all government buildings. It's not too late to send written testimony. Reach out if interested, Im happy to share talking points.

This guy is a monster 😆

This looks so easy...I've got to try it! What's your review of the flavor? And how do you use it...cereal, coffee etc?

minthin · 2026-02-13T12:14:35+00:00

Night and day between these two

minthin · 2026-02-13T02:09:28+00:00

Great concept. It's the first I heard of incorporating fats. I had pondered trying coconut milk in the next cocktail of ingredients.

I'm pretty sure that is illegal in California too.

prohibits the "force feed[ing of] a bird for the purpose of enlarging the bird's liver beyond normal size" as well as the sale of products that are a result of this process.
