I saw that they’re getting them to pay for additional trees locally which while not 1:1 is at least something.

Yeah I'm no planner but I feel like a real park instead of a golf course would benefit everyone and not be such a single-use project. It's cool that it was a progressive course back in the day but is there really that much demand for golf, especially privately-owned golf?

Boxes work but I can’t deal with folks who do grocery store paper bags

I think some combination of sanitation staff throwing them, losers who take them, oblivious neighbors, and mutant raccoons means that a 6 month lifespan is reasonable. They are free if you can find one at a city dump

Not going to be a popular opinion but if I can't source something downtown I just buy it from Amazon since it can go to a locker, since even USPS leaves stuff on the stoop. After a month-long UPS investigation chargeback nonsense I just figure it's worth the subscription since they can protect my stuff and the other companies (and the city) can't.
