  • You share a community, and get a solid 8 downvotes with people coming into your community to downvote the content you posted in the community you made and shared.

    Thank God I have no other communities to share because genuinely what the hell. Why bother sharing a community you made if people that clearly aren’t interested in what you’re sharing only come in to downvote content they know doesn’t appeal to them?






  • I appreciate this, thanks a bunch. Only question though is what if any risks I should consider in not having the shelves directly attached to the frame.

    I don’t have kids, so no worries there for furniture tipping, though just want to know if there would be other scenarios at all where the shelve might slide out and fall from the frame. Planning on eventually getting some pet bunnies, so if there’s any risks of the shelve sliding out and/or falling over, wanna make sure I prevent that from occurring to begin with.


  • Thanks for this, just one question though.

    The single shelve that’s already installed I see has has some wide screws in the bottom. I’m not a handyman by any means (hoping that can change), but I have put together IKEA furniture before and they seem to resemble these pieces I’m familiar with where you screw them in on the bottom to help hold the pieces connecting them to the frame in place.

    With this said, would the shelf pins still be fine? Just want to ensure everything will be properly sturdy is all.




  • Having done that myself admittedly, some people do that due to lack of electronics recycling in their area and simply not being aware of how to properly dispose of them.

    Took a while before I learned that the bottle depot few blocks from my old place did electronics recycling, and where I’m from at least, they teach you how the municipal waste system works when you’re in elementary, but I don’t think they ever touched on electronics. Do remember them touching on chemicals like cleaners and whatnot.

    While it’s better than not teaching kids at all, I believe in high school a refresher should be given to students in a general mandatory home economics course so that it’s touched on again when people are closer to entering adulthood and can learn more specifics of the system that they wouldn’t have understood before.
