Too Good To Toss Free Store Fundraiser

Help us build positive changeWith a donation of any size, you can help bring the TGTT Free Store to Warwick in 2026—saving money, strengthening community, and protecting our environment.Too Good to Toss Overview Too Good to Toss started as a free household goods swap event in 2017 for Earth Day, aimed at fostering sustainability through reuse. The event quickly gained popularity, leading to annual celebrations supported by the Town and Village of Warwick. From 2020 to 2021, we adapted by hosting "Too Good to Toss at Home," allowing community members to participate virtually. In 2024, Wickham Works officially adopted the initiative and began researching and pitching the Free Store, which is set to open in June of this year. If we may brag, please view Payton's message in the 2025 Wickham Works Impact Report (and view page 20 to preview how sponsors are mentioned).Too Good to Toss Free Store LocationThe store will be in a sun-filled corner of the basement at the Warwick Valley Community Center, refreshed under the guidance of Retail Design Expert, Carina Miranda of Carina Miranda Studio.What's NextToo Good To Toss is rolling out a new brand image (courtesy of Rebecca Pry) and will host the main event on June 6 at Stanley Deming Park.

We just had a blizzard in the Northeast #USA and in #NYC a news reporter just wanted some empty chatter about the weather

But her interview subject had other ideas

You think web page size bloat is bad on some things? oh boy.

Good afternoon to everyone, except bumn.go.id (an Indonesian government website) for having a (at least) 3GB web page because of embedded MP4's with uncompressed audio and video seeming straight from the camera...

This must cost so much for them, like a single page load could cost at least $0.15 in cloud egress fees alone

I also wanted to say a huge thanks to Framework, not just for the sponsorship -- but also for the pressure they've put on their suppliers to support fwupd and the LVFS.

I'm a big fan of reducing e-waste and repairing my electronics, and I'm glad to be a helping in a small way with that. Thanks again!

I'm also happy to announce we've got a new sponsor for the LVFS: #Framework

Although there are about a half a dozen OEMs that have promised to sponsor LVFS, Framework is the first to have actually signed the paperwork. You can see the new logo on https://fwupd.org/ and also the new "sponsorship pill" on various vendor pages like https://fwupd.org/lvfs/vendors/#framework

Wooooooo-ooo-oo-oah

everyone was wearing fingerless gloves

Biking in this morning I thought about all the evils we've fought back that people might not remember:

we stopped the ozone hole
we stopped acid rain
we defeated Y2K
we improved the air in many US and EU metros
we cleaned up US rivers substantially
we reduced childhood mortality
we saved countless people from cancers with early detection, smoking cessation, vaccines
we exterminated smallpox
we're close on guinea worm

If you tax the wealthy they’ll leave.

We tax them. They leave.

Every country taxes them. They leave.

Now they live in international waters on giant boats. They hate it. The food is awful. They get norovirus a lot.

The world carries on, considerably better off.
