It was, yeah. The market crashed pretty much over night too. Really obvious in hindsight, but if you’re making six figures from reselling the things you’re probably too close to really notice the wider picture.
I think some of them are still still hoping for that sweet payout
I was trying to find a specific beanie baby I had as a kid the other day and all the results were for these pristine in box listings that I don’t think anyone’s given a second glance in years going for like ten or twenty dollars
…man I just want the dumb jingly elf I had as a kid I don’t really care about the tag
True, but I always get the vibe from tise auction listings that they were originally for much more - they’re always set up nice and pretty with backgrounds and super nice shots and everything

Like you know something about the world and by saying, “I am not mainstream I am alternative,” you are making yourselves inclusive in some way. You don’t know anything the rest of the world doesn’t already have some idea about. Some sort of secret knowledge. I think my favorite thing I have seen on here is people thinking they are private and secure on the Fediverse. Despite the fact you are on a self hosted instance of someone’s hardware and handing your privacy and security to someone random or an entity at random.
Being inclusive is not how you educate people. It’s how you isolate your knowledge and make people think you are a jerk.
Lemmy attracts this FOSS/linux/firefox/self-hosted or die mentality because the biggest jump in Lemmy users came from a corporation messing with a product they liked

People like me are the black sheep among thousands of white sheeps, between lefties and boomers. I could only be in an eco chamber if I was literally schizophrenic. Right-wing people have to deal with woke every day it’s just impossible to ignore it.
No, you had night and weekend minutes. You had a package of texts like 300, 500, 1000, and texts over the limit cost something ridiculous like 15 cents or something.
I thought this is quite comical, cute,… wasn’t offended or upset by it in any way. And coincidentally 54% of adults in USA have a literacy below 6th grade level, while 21% of adults in USA are actually illiterate.
Pigs are resistant and it doesn’t matter to any animals unless they are eating brains. All of the smarmy aasholes in here commenting “wHaT aBoUt PrIoNs” are embarrassing themselves.
I always start with my Home/Frontpage/Subscribed feed on New. Then, when Ive exhausted that (since I’m a lemmy addict) I switch to All - New. That’s usually enough for me. If my soul still desires content I switch to All - Hot. Your All feed can be pretty good if you block certain communities.
