Any restaurants you know that are reducing plastic?

    As far as I’m aware they are not - they have a lining inside that contains plastic. At least that’s what I remember of paper coffee cups for example. But yes - where I live they are still supposed to be sorted as paper products.

    In Germany you can usually bring your own containers for takeout. Many restaurants have also switched to using paper-based takeout containers.

    It’s gotten worse recently - previously I could dismiss that and still see the whole tab. Now after seeing visiting a few tab pages, it prevents me from seeing any on mobile. Switching to private browsing works, but gosh it is annoying!

  • I would love to hear other people’s experiences with travel fatigue - what do you think caused it, how did you respond, and did it go away or change at some point? I love traveling, both to meet faraway friends and to discover new experiences but I’m currently in the midst of a slump.

    Thanks for the tip! I actually ended up emailing every sewing machine repair shop in the country (there aren’t many) and struck gold with one. I now have a working machine!

    I have not - I’ll try doing that! The trouble is I don’t even know the model of the machine. Perhaps the picture will be enough for them.

    Just a shot in the dark but I thought it’s worth trying: I bought this old Brother machine, but it came without a foot pedal. The machine has a power cable and another cable with a 2-pin flat prong female connector, which is where the pedal is supposed to go. It looks very similar to this machine on EBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/283520681227?_ul=IN All the “universal” pedals I see online don’t have this kind of connector. Does anyone know where I can find a replacement, or even what type of pedal I’m looking for?
