For message received, I use the press and hold emoji reactions, "tapbacks" I think they're called.

For some reason I associate an actual "👍🏼" text as being less nice? Because now you took the time to open your keyboard and find the thumbs up. Like equivalent to texting "K." Lol

Like the char you got on there! Also this is so very American😂

Well aint that the cutest thing. I like the tiny bed idea!

Looks like Death Stranding X GTA😂

What did they get themselves into?😂

No they're there, however there aren't trash bins once you leave the food vendor. If you walk away then you're responsible for the trash. So people just finish eating and dispose the trash there. Even if it's a stall or food truck, you can hand your trash back to the staff, they will happily accept it.

If it's for carry-out, people will pack their trash for disposal at home (you'll see a ton of people walking around with backpacks and totebags).

Yeah for this reason, you don't see this culture of eating/drinking while on-the-go in Japan lol. It's too inconvenient. It's something that tourists have to adjust to. But it's nice - the country is very clean and beautiful, no trash in sight. You might see some little old lady picking up a piece of trash that isn't even hers lol. That's the pride they take in their country.

Also there's an important difference in Japan that should be mentioned. A lot of the success is due to shame culture. You will feel like a bad person and get the side-eye for littering.

As far as this sign in England - I think suddenly taking away all the trash bins for a place that relies on them would be a disaster! But if that's the plan, then maybe taking only some away here and there could work over time. People need to be trained after all lol.

Guilty as charged. Me watching horror game let's plays too

Well I got this silly image of an iguana floating on a log raft now

Pretty! It's a lot lighter than the ones in my area

The way the capybara's just mildly annoyed lol

I do it like your friends and even block the tops of curtains where the light peeks through, but that's because I work night shifts lol

Well I just went and gave it another upvote😂

Same here. I've been reading Steven King's The Stand for like 2 years now😆

Well you might want a separate account for NSFW for example

That response time though. You guys are amazing. I love Lemmy.ca!

I use this approach sometimes and it really works. Provided it's the erm.. simple type of crowd that doesn't ask too many questions lol. They'll wander around and figure it out. If they do, congratulations😂

So much personality

The name Lemmy grew on me lol. I thought Reddit sounded dumb af once upon a time too. In fact I still cringe at the thought of being called a "redditor."

She was looking really thin in recent photos. Sad. May she rest in peace.

Thanks for doing that! It'd be helpful to have it in list form too, so we can help point people to instances based on location should they be interested:)
