What we usually do is find an empty milk jug or soda bottle to collect them in, and we have a method where rake and spread out garbage out before we pick it up in order to spot any sharps and avoid injuries.
Though, pretty standard large size nowadays. When you have to start categorizing and classifying adjectives, then you’ve gotten to the real stuff. Let me know when you come across a flared xl chance :}
If your kids are playground aged, you probably don’t have a ton of free time/babysitter money to be doing that. You could bring the kids, but I’d rather not have my small children handling used needles and condoms (just a few of the delights I’ve found on my local playground)…
I can think of a million completely valid reasons that may prevent someone from helping improve their community.
But still something that we need to find the time to help improve our community and that time needs to come from our jobs, not our family, so steal as much time from your employer as you can.
At least here in Los Angeles, many of the parks are unsafe for children. I found a knife in the playground last year.
Defund public spaces, then increase the cost of private spaces. Neoliberalism, everybody.
Go help clean them up, then.
Done that plenty, it makes a huge difference and as people notice they come and help out too.
Ya know how many toilets I’ve helped dragged out of local streams and creeks? Way too fucking many.
I did, I still have the knife.
Sick. Free knife, yo.
It’s probably an abandoned murder weapon.
I don’t mind cleaning up garbage. But I’m not usually prepared to safely handle sharps.
Nobody is. Kinda heartbreaking.

Toilets? Like ceramic? The home appliance that you shit into everyday? People throw those into streams and rivers??
…(Shatner.gif)But why?
That’s just how people are sometimes.
I’ve also helped fished out:
Define “enormous”
It was like three inches in diameter, the length of a forearm, & covered in algae.
At first I thought it was a wolf eel or something, but then I saw the balls.
Nice. 😏

Goddamn! Well, times have sure changed. 😂

After I sent that I was worried that would be the answer. I am so sorry your kids can’t just go to a park.
