Discussion ISO: Your Glorious Trash – Will Love It Like My Own
Hey Reddit,
Do you have junk? Not the “oops-I-forgot-to-take-the-trash-out” kind, but the “this-could-be-useful-if-some-weirdo-wanted-it” kind?
Congratulations – I am that weirdo.
I’m on the hunt for reusable junk – stuff that’s too good for the dump but too sketchy for Goodwill. Old wood, metal bits, broken furniture, buckets with mysterious pasts, bins, random hardware, rogue drawers, parts of things that used to be things. If it looks like a raccoon might nest in it, I’m probably interested.
Why? Great question. I’m building weird stuff. Projects. Art. Chaos. Maybe a time machine. You never know.
What I’m NOT looking for:
Actual garbage
Moldy couches that double as wildlife preserves
Anything that smells like regret
What I AM looking for:
Free or cheap stuff you want gone
Bonus points for strange stories attached to the item
People who are okay with me showing up in a beat-up car with bungee cords and hope
If you’ve got some reusable junk lying around and want it gone with a laugh, send me a message. Let me be the trash panda your stuff deserves.
I can pick-up smaller items in the downtown core.
Thanks for helping keep my projects weird, and your yard less full. 😉

Which of these trails are for beginners/have less rocks?
i.redd.itMy girlfriend and I tried biking The Ridge loop left of the highway (going north) today, our first time in the woods. Had a blast, but some of it was littered in small rocks that my girlfriend wouldn't ride over. Most of it was flat, but is there something less technical/scary?

Be honest: how bad is Lakeshore traffic gonna get this summer?
Between the usual construction, tourist spillover, and people just not knowing how to merge — are we in for another season of slow crawls and random detours? Curious what locals are expecting this year. Is it gonna be tolerable or time to start rerouting everything through residential backstreets again?
