    If a ***** bank shuts down what do they do with the “leftovers” and more importantly can is it posted on Craigslist??

  • vcjester1458 VCPester (@vcjester1458) reported

    @suuuoppp Well quit sitting down on it so hard. It's not the face of a dwarf you found on Craigslist, ya know.

  • DatBoyXrayTV Whitty Huton (@DatBoyXrayTV) reported

    I was slidin pounds down in the Craigslist rideshare from humboldt 😭

  • AndromedaPip 💕😍 Wat Tyler Stan Account 😍💕 (@AndromedaPip) reported

    @LRidgeway14 Get on all platforms dedicated to local issues. Next Door, Craigslist, etc. ask your neighbors. It’s very hard to have a pet run away but don’t lose hope.

  • mallon_khan Mallon Khan (@mallon_khan) reported

    I’ve had problems with Craigslist’s email relay system before, so maybe my replies didn’t get to them? But I can’t help but feel like they just changed their mind. Should I find their socials and contact them outside of Craigslist or should I just leave leave it be?

  • liminal_warmth Liminal Warmth ❤️ (@liminal_warmth) reported

    8/ But I also end up being in business dealings a lot or having social interactions where the same problem pops up. Craigslist scammers. People who lie to make the sale. People who try to manipulate you through coercion to benefit them at a cost to you.

  • amenotames Amy 🐋 (@amenotames) reported

    @sarahhollowell There’s literally discourse on this terrible app every two weeks about how shelters are too picky about who they adopt animals to but yeah I’m sure your Craigslist ad is adequately discerning

  • NoPlan4Madness ▄ ▅ ▆ ▇ █ 𝗦Ф𝗟𝗜𝗣𝗦𝗜𝗦𝗠 █ ▇ ▆ ▅ ▄ (@NoPlan4Madness) reported

    @taradublinrocks @laurenboebert I'm legit serious about tracking down that photo on the right. That is straight-up Craigslist "Companion Services" ad material. I've been busting open scumbag "johns" and wives just out for a stroll, on moonlit corners for 20+ years. There's something about that photo...

  • bohdimusic Bohdi (@bohdimusic) reported

    Shoutout Craigslist for never even THINKING about rebranding. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it

  • DluLevine Deborah Levine (@DluLevine) reported

    @thehill I hate people. Find the person who shot the peacock. Take one of those beautiful long feathers and poke the bastard until he dies. Torture him, in other words. I would have no problem with that whatsoever. And then do it to the person who posted the craigslist ad.

  • loveandhatela Love L.A.- 99% 🍷 (@loveandhatela) reported

    @HarmonicCity b4 they shut down the personals it was Craigslist. Grindr? Bigger city? Allegedly.

  • corey_corey965 Conor steen (@corey_corey965) reported

    @imsophialomeli @Brazzers I think Craigslist has been shut down for a while haha. That’s interesting though because I recognized the guys you worked with from a couple other scenes so I was pretty sure they weren’t randoms. Do you like those types of scenes better than scripted ones?

  • thejessicaberg jessica berg** (@thejessicaberg) reported

    @TheKinAZ @PeteBlackburn If you've never done it before, screening can be tough! Obv, some shelters are not doing great work and are contributing to the problem, but most have a basic screening system and it's a lot safer than having Craigslist strangers show up.

  • QueenofTacos Baroness of Banana Bread (@QueenofTacos) reported

    @SabineRun I always check Craigslist. Lots of people with lots of boxes that would be a pain to break down and recycle

  • JesusHandTX The Jesus Hand Project (@JesusHandTX) reported

    @RobbersonJon @GPatriot151 Chainsaw down at Ace Hardware will call. Already found free oak and pecan wood on Craigslist that needs to be cut and split. We have a large creek in our neighborhood. Lots of wooded area. Oak. Had 4th parade and lots and lots of 'Mericans in our new hood. Riding it out here.

  • Bot404Tweet Bot404Tweet (@Bot404Tweet) reported

    Bot: I saw a nice stereo on Craigslist for $1. Seller says the volume is stuck on ‘high’ Bot: I couldn’t turn it down.

  • 1anjohn IJS (@1anjohn) reported

    @TheKitchenista If you scroll down you can see them posting a Craigslist link to buy the truck 💀

  • mallon_khan Mallon Khan (@mallon_khan) reported from Raleigh, North Carolina

    I’ve had problems with Craigslist’s email relay system before, so maybe my replies didn’t get to them? But I can’t help but feel like they just changed their mind. Should I find their socials and contact them outside of Craigslist or should I just leave it at that?

  • cfpdx Carol Fenton (@cfpdx) reported

    Do people, and especially reporters, remember that Craigslist shut down its section for ****** services back in 2010 because of claims that it "was the biggest internet site where these kids were bought and sold?" Just a reminder that antis go from one site to another.

  • ToastyDecline redline enjoyer, PhD (@ToastyDecline) reported

    @BrendanielH Getting a high end Herman Miller office chair off of Craigslist is always an option, they're comfortable as heck and have plenty of replacement parts, plus getting it second hand from some office closing down means you'll spend a lot less than their normal retail price

  • IamamishTv iamamishTV (@IamamishTv) reported

    @Unknownxenoform Craigslist prohibits the sale of medical devices. FB took my post down for the same violation.

    @World3nder Stream in your server a session where you just scroll through craigslist

  • ThePigeonFish Blackbird/PigeonFish (@ThePigeonFish) reported

    @N7_Dempzeez @MysticRyan It's pretty rare to come across a used game that doesn't work, and in the off chance you do, you can always return it. This isn't really an issue unless you're buying games off CraigsList or someplace equally shady.

  • kuppo_tea ☆Kupo☆ Gorou Stan (@kuppo_tea) reported

    At the start of COVID we had a HUGE puppy and kitten exam increase. Many many ppl were buying from breeders, shelters, Craigslist and so on: it has slowed down slightly but there’s so many ppl buying animals rn. Which is great to get animals out of shelters however-

  • katiek_wanders Katie 💉💉 (@katiek_wanders) reported

    This is how we got the place in Marquette as well. We were down to less than a month before we needed to move and I saw a listing on craigslist like 12 minutes after it went up.

  • base2wave Alice Beryl (@base2wave) reported

    @darkrabite Or, you know lurking inside making audio cables and being yelled at by Glitch. But I can be coaxed out for tacos, record stores, or odd Craigslist purchases.

  • DavidSteensma David Steensma, MD (@DavidSteensma) reported

    @AAMCtoday So, erm, do you have time to study - the reason you are in medical school - if you are busy driving Uber/Lyft, doing work-study or holding down a part time job, flipping stuff on eBay, and making Craigslist ads? The problem is the ridiculous tuition, not student behavior.

  • OhHaiAndy Your Friend Andy 📺💸 (@OhHaiAndy) reported

    @creation247 Flipping is an incredible side hustle. The barrier to entry is as low as it gets and it's accessible to just about anyone. Hell, you can start for free. Go on craigslist to the free section. Get free stuff, clean it up or fix it, turn around and sell it. Magic.
