My right sink was briefly occupied and my ocd was twitching, so I switched things up and used the left sink. I feel like a rebel - almost a gadabout. I'm still a bit anxious about it, but there's definitely a 'spring' in my step.

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Ya...never had one in about 10 homes in my lifetime. They've always piqued my interest, though.
Nowadays I compost most scraps - gotta be careful bc we have racoons, skunks, fishers, lots of critters but mostly bc bears, and 'tis the season.
Interesting to hear that you’ve never owned a garbage disposal. It’s quite the opposite for me. I’ve never lived anywhere without a garbage disposal in the kitchen sink however, I’ve always used the garbage disposal as more of a preventive tool. Composting kitchen scraps (or feeding my chickens kitchen scraps) has always been my preferred method of organic waste disposal. I’ve been raised, and I’ve raised my children to use the garbage disposal to grind food waste that is not suitable for composting, and would otherwise simply fill my bin with methane and other unpleasant decomposition by products. For example, we feed our dogs boiled chicken. Inevitably, some of the pieces of chicken get stuck to the bottom of the pot and have to be scraped off while washing. I wouldn’t feed my chickens anything with soap on it nor would I compost this as the soap may have a detrimental effect on the microbes that are breaking down my compost.
