But you should first try to reuse something bedore you start to repurpose (or reuse it). If it can’t be repaired or it isn’t viable enough (because nobody want’s it or nobbody wants to pay for the repair) then reuse it

No it’s not, the full ladder is basically (and even legally here in NL rvo.nl )

1. Refuse and rethink
2. Reduce
3. Re-use
4. Refair/refurbish
5. Recycle
6. Recover

But the saying is often used as “Repair, Reuse, Recycle” in the right to repair programs.

Isn’t the recommended amount a lot lower than 6-8 ounces? It’s like 500g or 5 ounces per week.

Reparing is the first one, idk where reduce comes into the saying.

Maybe we need to include a 4th R?

Ideally people wouldn’t use abbreviations in general context. Searching for it on Ecosia doesn’t help that much either.

But coalitions are a mess on their own, just check politics in Europe. At least Geert Wilders is only an example for Trump and nowhere near as bas

The US law is a shit show always has been and always will be as long as people keep believing stupid shit like “sales tax is not included in the price because it’s different in every city”.

Luckly for most of us in first world countries, there is punishment for docters, for accountants, etc who do not do their job.

Bidets aren’t common in a whole lot of countries. Heck there are probably more countries where a bidet is uncommon than common.

Depends ofc where you look, what country etc. And if you count people living here who themselves don’t count themselves as an European

While the EU acts more like one country than the US we are not a single country. So it vastly differentiates from country to country.

Asking people about gypsies will either bring out the worst or they will correct you and say that calling them Gypsies is like calling a black person Niger. Romani is the preferred term btw.

Not OP, but keep seeing the world as if it is “us vs them” or “black vs white” or “right vs left” or “rich vs poor” will not help find common ground and compromises. There is no compromise for racism, but people putting more attention on it will only promote looking at the situation in a way where the difference matters.

The US shouldn’t be considered a single country. The EU has way more in common between it’s members and acts more like one country than the US.

Breaking it up in 50 different states is probably gonna cause a war I see that.

Slowly the US (which has been a terrible country for a lot of people) is dying and pulling others down. The US has pushed it’s bullshit into way to many countries it is not even funny.

Yeah the shooting in Sweden is getting buried by news like this. Not that the situation in Gaza isn’t terrible or that the US isn’t a terrible country to be in, but stil

Most privacy minded people don’t, but that is something that is a lot harder to get rid of for the majority of the countries where it is the default way of communicating these days

Normally the state would have a lot less power over judges. In the US the state has power over judges AND there is a jury system.

Ideally you wouldn't have two parties, but have an odd number of parties to figure it out. So three at minimum

Describing the good of the opinions that are more on the right side of the spectrum isn't going to come across as good if you use conservatives to describe it.

You can help strengthen an oat if you introduce a third party that punishes people who do not follow the oat. You see that with doctors, accountants and other protected jobs all across the globe.

That doesn’t sound like are actual parttime workers, but either freelancers or “small business owners” who get hired.

I dislike billionaires just like the next person, but this also exists in other countries where billionaires either don’t exist or don’t gave the impact.

Part of it is because people think it’s better (at least here in NL) because they earn more after taxes, but in the long term it’s more expensive and because it used to be better for businesses. Now we mainly see a lot of people who wish to work like that.

Sadly the country is basically bankrupt and has been for decades

Excuse me for my ignorance, i keep forgetting the US only acts like it’s a first world country to the outside world, but it is basically a shit hole in the mean time.

Most of these things I couldn’t know and we get a lot of news about the US here in NL.

Voting here takes like 10 minutes and there are multiple voting locations available. A town with 2k people will have 2 or 3 voting locations and you can also vote in other cities.

Edit: I was not talking about freelance work, but parttimes on contract, they get paid leave as well
