has anyone ever explained how to sort and put out the recycling to you?

for instance, do you know in SF not to bag your recyclables?

did anyone ever explain that using a garbage disposal for food means a plumber will have to snake your pipes eventually?

or that flushable wipes aren't?

just wondering, because it seems like many people don't know

Toot

@kingrat flushable wipes are a lie. I can't believe people are allowed to sell them.

However... Your sink drain and toilet go to the exact same place. A garbage disposal shouldn't make a difference. Maybe if there's a long way between your sink and the connection to the sewer, but for me, the toilet is literally 10' from the kitchen sink. Both connect to the same pipe.

@coldfish a) poop doesn't clog pipes like food does. especially fat. b) there's a lot of pipes between where the waste goes in and the pipes join. those can get clogged super easy.
