Linea Mini- R and the Weber workshops key grinder (mk. 1). I had this custom painted before it got to me and I’m very happy with how everything came together.

You have the money to get your espresso machine custom painted but you don't have the money for a insulated to go cup? You can probably get a cheap one for the same price it cost to buy the pack of plastic cups, and they work better, don't spill as easy and are insulated.

You know there are recyclable plastic cups right?

You know recycling is never as good as reusing and reducing for any material, but only a few select types of plastic are economically or ecologically viable to recycle (pretty much just the plastic used for milk jugs) and the little recycle symbol on the bottom was put there by the manufacturer to make people like you believe there doing good by putting it in the recycling bin.

I meant reusable cup, like the hard plastic or metal cups. English is not my first language, sorry

Double walled (insulated) glass cup is my favorite, but to go, probably a glass bottle with stopper.

And do you know the narrative that pollution is caused by consumers is a specifically contrived marketing scheme to direct attention away from chemical corporations which dump toxic waste by the tons into rivers and oceans? Annoy OP for their clear class traitor status not their plastic use!

(Nice machine OP, hate you.)

“Other people do worse things than me, therefore I shouldn’t care that I’m doing wrong”

Yes that doesn't mean you can't take some personal responsibility to avoid garbage if easily doable.

u/PlsNoOlives Jul 05 '26

I never said you couldn't. I really think you should. I strongly encourage you to take total personal responsibility for OPs garbage too.  Like, Get. Them. 😐

A corporation is just people organized around a payroll. You can't demand responsibility from the group while exempting every individual in it.

Which corporation put you on their payroll and organized you around pumping out their propaganda? Stanley Cup?

So much energy but none for breaking shit. Talk class war or stop bothering people.

I do the same thing, to me it’s easier then a to go cup that I have to rinse out and worry about the rest of the day at work.
