A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected]. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

What are your arguments for or against letting it mellow if it is yellow? (lemmy.world)

And if you somehow disagree with flushing it down if it is brown, I suppose I would like to hear about that as well.

If you have to throw your toilet paper in the trash instead of flushing it in order to not have issues then yeah, you're not emptying it often enough.

But hey, you do you and you deal with the issues, I mean, what's a new septic system when you can save the equivalent of 100$ a year, right?

We don't put tp in the trash at our family home and have no problems.
The rental unit has to because of the smaller tank (it has a ~900gal one or something) and it normally gets emptied on a 3 year cycle- as it had been for about 10 years without issue before this tenant moved in and problems arose because of their copious TP usage.

Thanks for the advice though 👍
