People shouldn’t think “bandits”.π΅ I would say “dumpster diver”, β”scavenger”, “π²junk person”, π₯”rag-and-bone man”, π₯‘”waste picker”, π”trash picker”. These titles are from different parts of the world. For me title should be π”recycle selectors”! They take what we don’t want any more, even though it is still good to use. Or new title π”recycle choosers”!π¦
Beautiful characterisation!
Thank you, Malcolm.
Such a moving piece. Your depth of insight into her inner machinations is profound. I wish we all had your compassion.π€
Oh, thank you Jordy. I think it comes from years of being a therapist. π
Thank you for your service with the darkness and shedding light.π€
My pleasure, Jordy. π
