Much has been written about landfills and the monumentality of rubbish, but little attention has been paid to litter, the small trash that soils the urban pavement, like the bits of chewing gum that some artists decorate. Talking Trash looks at refuse in its early stages, when it is still tiny and unassuming, still lives in the city, and has yet to grow, leave the metropolis, and accumulate in landfills. The chapters of Talking Trash reflect upon the anthropomorphic nature of urban refuse; upon the poetics and semantics of micro-litterscapes and the archives of all things discarded; upon Dumpsterology, or the history of the garbage container as a gendered artifact dense with cultural meaning; and upon dirty innocence, or the complex and contradictory link that ties childhood to muck. The author also focuses on one significant non-urban scene, the desert landscape and the clothing and other items that immigrants discard as they make a desperate trek across the border.Binding Type: Hardcover

Great paper
Model: Kraft er Paper 002
Great product. I'm using this for shelf paper. The paper is clean, a good weight, easy to work with, and a good price. The paper also comes with white cord which I was not expecting. I highly recommend this item.

Nice quality butcher paper
Model: Kraft er Paper 002
This is great paper. It even comes with a spool of string for tying up whatever you’re wrapping if that’s how you’re using it. I’m using it to cover my sublimation projects in a heat press and it works perfect.

Great thickness and color
Model: Kraft er Paper 002
This paper was great for wrapping Christmas gifts this year. It was a good color white and was easy to write names directly on, no need for tags! The weight of the paper was great and tape also held up easily. It is perfect for medium to small packages. Purchased item.

My Go-To Sublimation Paper — Flawless Results Every Time
Size: 8.5"x11", Size: 8.5"x11"
This is hands down the best sublimation paper I’ve used and the only one I continue to buy. I get a perfect transfer every single time—no fracturing, no fading, and no uneven results. The paper dries fast, which makes my workflow so much smoother, especially when I’m producing items in batches.
I use this regularly to make air fresheners and tote bags for my small business, and the color payoff is always vibrant and crisp. The transfer rate is excellent, and it works beautifully on light-colored, high-quality polyester and other sublimation-ready surfaces.
If you’re a small business owner or crafter who values consistency, quality, and ease of use, this paper is absolutely worth it. I highly recommend it and will continue to repurchase.
