Has this been done?

IMPORTANT PLEASE READ

A side blog of @bird-trappedinacage has been reported, and the outcome was that Tumblr, without warning, terminated all of her blogs, including @the-most-diabolik-of-lovers. She has emailed Tumblr to try and get her blogs back.

Please reblog to spread the word!

Too Much College

I am not entirely sure when I will start posting some content due to being to busy, hopefully I will be able to soon. But, I do want to be committed to this blog so I will try my very best.

Things to do to help save the fuckin’ planet

1. Hang clothes out to dry inside or outside your home

2. Use cloth napkins that are washable/reusable

3. Make sure your home is properly insulated - this’ll be cheaper in the long run too

4. Buy rechargeable batteries

5. Always reuse plastic bags, don’t buy new ones, invest in cloth bags/tote bags/reusable bags

6. Reduce the physical mail you get - ask for emails instead

7. Use matches rather than plastic lighters

8. Buy cotton swabs with paper rather than plastic

9. Buy plants for your house or garden

10. Go to the library or buy second-hand books from charity shops, online etc.

11. Donate things on Facebook, freecycle etc - someone else might need your junk

12. Buy biodegradable dog poo bags

13. Avoid beef and lamb for yourself and your pets - it’s the worst meat for the environment

14. Buy biodegradable baby wipes

15. Try meat-free days, try good vegan alternatives or even go vegetarian (hit me up for tips and recommendations)

16. Decline plastic straws in restaurants or bring your own reusable ones

33. Take public transportation, car share, walk or cycle

34. Recycle - can’t believe I have to say that one

35. Try composting

36. Go to charity-shops, second-hand stores, thrift stores or whatever they’re called - use Depop, Ebay etc. and buy second-hand
