Table free to good home in #Oakland or the broader #EastBay / #SFBA

Pick up near lake merritt

Its a 6ft x 2.25ft wooden table with a slight wobble (easily fixed with shoes)

#BuyNothing #TrashNothing #FreeCycle #Free #Furniture

I am surprised how many people in #Ottawa don't know about #trashnothing. I have used it over the years to get rid of my unwanted furniture, house plants, clothes, spare apples from our trees, books, dishes..... All these items, for years, have gone (free) to people who wanted them enough to come over to our place to pick them up. #ecology #recycle #community

For my first #marchintosh post, some scores from #trashnothing #freecycle over the weekend.

The #iMac apparently had the magic smoke & sparks fly out, we shall see what parts can be salvaged

- An older #ipad
- a few #macpro - Two appear to be the 2012 vintage, the same as my orignal MacPro that I still have. Hopefully candidates for #OCLP
- Some #keyboards
- retro surge srtip
- random ewaste: panasonic land line phone, some cables, spicy pillows,

It will never stop annoying me when I offer something on #TrashNothing or #Freecycle, and someone says they want it and names a specific day and time when they're going to come pick it up, and then they no-show and ghost me.
If you're enough of a grown-up to be participating in one of these groups, you're enough of one to figure out to show up when you say you're going to or apologize if you can't.
Grow the fuck up, show some respect for other people.

Not being able to hire a car has (almost) worked out. Have picked up a free thing #Freegle #Freecycle #TrashNothing #Reuse via a short train hop though admit the object is hella heavy #Womble

Oh yay! I was able to give those old lanyards away on #TrashNothing!

There's a very cool elderly lady who will be wearing her bus pass with attention-getting high-tech references to grab the eyes of young techies on the buses.

"Excuse me ma'am, did you invent the original ZigBee protocol?"

Dear Friends without Olio ... 😱
Well that did not last long. Essentially, Olio are trying to capitalise on Freecycle and the Trash Nothing app. https://www.freecycle.org/

I deleted Olio as soon as the pay money to the Olio app, for their premium 'service' came up. Yuk! What is wrong with startups like this - are they starving? Greedy? It took less than an hour for them to reveal their moneterisation of food plan ...

In the UK and in Greater #London, we have food charities/banks being used by working people. I am going to Church and eating the whole Eucharist and wine ... The dharmic #charities in #Tooting are feeding people (as are the #Churches and #Mosques)
I have to start giving again on #Freecycle and #TrashNothing. I also have two bags of clothes, charity shops like #Oxfam in walking distance ...
Must do! 😇
