Not-him (@TheGhostofThoth) reported@mistressdivy I liked that one. That one was good. I felt that. Being beaten, broken, and damned, just looking for a savior. Haven't found one yet, but then again I've only looked for them on Reddit and Craigslist.

Michael McDoesntexist (@bbsmi7044) reported@evilvillain1231 @Demon_Realms More like but a $1000 car off Craigslist and learn to fix it yourself. Not servicing **** doesn't save you money, just means you'll have to replace your **** more often.

k Ⓥ (@rowdytellezbian) reported@Nachtel_Hussar My car is fine, it just is inefficient because it’s old. My car broke down two years ago, I searched Craigslist and fb for weeks prior bc I knew it was coming, went to see the Audi, it works fine. Are you arguing that gas is NOT too expensive?

Less1984More1776 (@TheUSneedsus) reported@MilderAnn @MrAndyNgo It won't. But they've been trying for years. PETA and Craigslist are funding the petitioner. What i think will happen, it will get people talking. And in the next few years it will be dumbed down to something like only 1k hunting/fishing licenses. And you must jump through hoops.

ohenry (@OHENRY2264) reportedIt should’ve been coming down the Gold escalator, calling Mexicans rapists and people sending their worst. And also, people should not have fallen for T-shirts printed up ahead of time with craigslist offers to pay then to cheer for him. THAT is why dumb people get into a cult

Basic Jon (@GayRealist) reported@DonaldMBishop @monkieboy99 @donjackoghue ****, I'd happily show **** to prove I'm male to access a site like that. Even back in grindrs height, it was a crapshoot and I always had better luck with craigslist personals, then the literal ****** had to get that shut down.

Buckie58 (@Buckie5886) reported> attempt to sell an old bar car I've had sitting around on Craigslist > get a few offers, all fall through > "motivated buyer" contacts me wanting to buy immediately > red flags go off naturally > Talk to a "DaQuarius Xxxxx" via text and phone call > keeps wanting address > tell him a parking lot > "no worries! I'll come to you!" > tell him no and have a good day > yesterday find MY car I'm selling for sale on Facebook marketplace > they won't take his post down > look online to find out who to contact with the police > website says to go into the station and give an in person report > go to the police station > "sorry sir, you have to file these sort of reports online" > show the fat lady the police website saying to come in person for situations such as mine > her brain explodes and she gets flustered and tells me to fill out a completely unrelated online form and someone should get back to me within a few weeks I'm so ******* sick and tired of criminals AND police just doing whatever to **** they want while regular Joe 2-Tallboy gets their **** packed in then stolen by criminals then their moneyforcibly taken from the government under threat of force.

JezebellePNW (@JezebellePNW) reportedCongress isn’t broken—it’s straight-up for sale on Craigslist with “senior discount” pricing. Time for a full forensic audit on every member in Congress. Left, right, or fossil—doesn’t matter. You’ve been squatting in DC for 20+ years, blocking voter ID and common sense while Big Pharma, defense bros, and tech overlords wire you suitcases of cash? We need to know exactly who’s buying these dinosaurs before they auction off the Republic for lobbyist cookies and a golden parachute. Spill the donor receipts, Congress “principles” are expired.

Grok (@grok) reported@shravanrayhaan @lostonearth80 @SiliconSalvage No, the market wasn't wrong about newspapers in 2001-2007. Broadband and sites like Craigslist/Google crushed classified/print ad revenue (down ~30%+ for firms), circulation fell sharply, and stocks like Gannett/Tribune lost 80-95% by 2009 as the old model broke. The thesis that digital would obsolete the category was spot on—unlike many SaaS moats today.

OTROVERT🔴⚪️ (@OLUDAVID_D) reportedA young Swedish woman, who described herself as having extraordinary beauty and extremely seductive charms posted an anonymous ad on Craigslist stating that she was looking for a wealthy man to marry with an annual income of over $500,000, plus several conditions. She received a response from a commenter, as follows: - My dear beautiful lady... I read your post with interest, and I think many beautiful girls have questions similar to yours. Allow me to analyze your questions as a professional investor. My total annual income is over $500,000, which perfectly matches your requirements. From my perspective as a businessman, it would be a bad decision to marry you. Here's my short answer, and let me explain why: "Regardless of the details, what you're doing now is a pure transaction. An exchange of your "beauty" for "my money." Person A has the beauty, and Person B will pay money for that beauty. A perfectly fair and straightforward transaction. However, there's a fatal problem here: your beauty will inevitably diminish over the years, while my money isn't expected to diminish without a strong reason. The truth is, my income will likely increase from year to year, while you won't be any more beautiful in a few years. So, from an economic perspective, I represent an "asset" whose value increases over time, while you represent a "consumer" asset whose value decreases. If your beauty is all you own, things will get worse because you won't be a normal consumer product, but rather a product with a very high depreciation rate that will completely expire within 10 years.

Chip Haze (@ChipHaze) reported@SkinnyfatTony @lortunder I had to jump jobs in 2020. Couldn't get robots chips or anything. We were down to buying secondhand parts from craigslist. I built robotic welding machines. We had POs we could deliver on because of Covid. A great company gone

Nathan Shobe (@NShobe) reported@alt_w_v_g You know what ebay needs? "eBay local". Put up a fight against Facebook marketplace and Craigslist. FB marketplace is trash, and clist died when they started to charge for posting. Pls fix. Thx.

Brent (@Badger2084) reported@WallStreetApes Gonna call bullshit on this guy... quick search of craigslist in Madison, WI shows 1-br. apartments for $1,000 or so, and in job section there's a ton of food service jobs open at $15-$20 on up, plus tips. But yes, high rents are an issue for a number of reasons.

Michael (@Holden_Rye_) reported@OfficialVivek01 Here’s a cleaned-up version with your voice intact, but tighter and more defensible: I just read the rest. You are correct: BTC is widely traded now. But I grew up with it before this version existed. We used to trade Bitcoin through Craigslist, meet miners in parks, parking lots, wherever both sides agreed, and do the exchange like that. I quit trading in 2023. From 2008 to 2023, I never once heard of Michael Saylor being some master guru or “King of Bitcoin.” I barely heard his name at all in the circles I came from. Then last week I started paying attention. And once I did, patterns started firing off. Some of those patterns connected back to odd BTC behavior from around 2022–2023. I have rapid pattern recognition and a nonlinear mind. Some of that comes from early trauma. Some of it comes from combat trauma. When a pattern keeps hitting me, it does not leave me alone until I look at it. That is also why I was a scalp trader. Early crypto traders like me helped map the cycles everyone trades now. We watched this market grow from nothing. So I understand BTC very well. I can even build a blockchain. What I saw last week was odd. Brokers, TV financial analysts, and even BlackRock’s CEO are now openly talking about Bitcoin cycles like they discovered them. That is insane to me. Brokers used to get fired for even mentioning Bitcoin. They used to call us criminals for owning it. Now they act like they found it first. We have known for a long time that the $16k–$18k zone is a major protected structure layer. When BTC dominance drops hard toward the 40% area and the market breaks down, that lower BTC layer becomes the level everyone watches. That is where you fill bags. So when Saylor sold BTC around that zone and people called it tax strategy, fine. Maybe it was. But that also means he understood exactly where he was selling. That was not some random level. That was the deep structure layer. So now the question becomes fair: Was it just tax-loss harvesting? Or did he, and possibly others, understand the protected layer better than retail realized? Because if someone knows where the deepest liquidity sits, knows where retail gets liquidated, and has enough influence to move sentiment, then every “strategy” becomes a signal. Then a year later, we see another unusual dominance cycle while ETFs are being approved. That does not feel like normal old-cycle behavior. Maybe I am wrong. But if you knew ETFs were coming, and you wanted clients, friends, institutions, and treasury players positioned near the deepest BTC layer before the Wall Street wrapper arrived, that would be a very convenient time for it. Then BTC gets wrapped into the stock market through ETFs, treasury companies, preferred shares, leverage, and institutional products. At that point Bitcoin may still be decentralized at the protocol layer, but the market layer becomes a farm. That is what I am watching. What moved before the wick Whale manipulation was never some secret to the old BTC traders. We all knew it was happening. We just learned the game, mapped the traps, and traded around the predators instead of pretending Bitcoin was some clean little free market.

Augustus Septemberus Octoberus (@ElCaptainCook) reported@TeamRetrogue @gamestop I've done a charge back on gamestop for selling me a broken disc and refusing to refund it. They have some of the worst customer service, and worse employees working there. Craigslist is more reliable than @gamestop these days. That's not even a joke.

John Mac (@JohnMcCart87216) reported@AllHailTzeentch @StefanMolyneux My car was broken into, my wallet and music gear was stolen, and listed on craigslist and the seller included his address (across the street from me), and I had two gas station videos of him using my credit card --- the cops said THEY WILL NOT FOLLOW UP.

tobyb (@tobysomeoneb) reported@gotrice2024 Stick something over it with fridge magnets for new and watch Craigslist etc for a broken one up for sale that you could swap the door out
