How can I dispose off old towels and bedding? These are beyond being donated, so I was wondering if there are any recycling options?

Some cities have textile recycling bins these days. And definitely yes to your local animal shelter - just call first to confirm.
A few of my local shelters stopped taking donations during covid - not for safety reasons but because they were overloaded w donations as everyone was at home purging!

I got to know someone thru work, and flirted a bit over 1 week. Then we never spoke again because of work geography. He reached out this week after 9 months+ asking for a visa sponsor to take a vacay in my country (given mobility restriction these days), and asked me to hook him up with a business visa referral letter thru my connections. He also said he’s coming with gf. I said im happy to write him a personal reference letter, but wont be able to get him a business one. Is this rude?

I’m not sure if this happens to you, I’m constantly intimidated and feel judged by white men and women and/or people born in the US for having a strong foreign accent in the US. Nobody says that to my face, but I can see it in people’s actions. This has severely affected my confidence and I focus more on the way I pronounce some words rather than the content. How do I battle this situation? Would definitely like both perspectives.
