Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.

RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

What's an expensive purchase you've made recently and was it worth it? (piefed.blahaj.zone)

A laundry basket with legs that you can fold out.

I have to hang-dry my laundry (I live in Japan), so being able to raise the basket high enough so that I don't have to bend to the ground every time to grab the next item is worth it.

Technically, it's not that recent, nor that expensive, but it was like double the price of the laundry basket next to it at the store.
