    @TheQuartering I ordered 200 roses on ******** but I feel like I might have clicked the wrong button. Are the Craigslist "missed connections" section still available? Nevermind, I'll just do the Grok thing and get an AI Waifu while birthrates are going down. Gen X for the win.

  • VeritasRevolt Jason Pebworth (@VeritasRevolt) reported

    @lcochran0939 @Holden_Culotta This is the real issue we need like a nation wide job placement program, like the old Craigslist but with real job listings with programs to teach the respective trades.

    @FranciscoTNG_ lol the fact that they're a furry of all things too 💀💀💀 Furries will gladly call a well respected cartoonist a zoophile yet half the ******* fandom has no issue with ******** all the emaciated cats and dogs they bought off craigslist

    @RealHousewifeMi That's the way it goes on Marketplace and Craigslist sometimes. But as someone else said a better option is usually coming down the pike. Just be patient.

    @ImGinnyRobinson Creepy Craigslist Scott is part of the problem 😳 😬

  • jblazeokey Okey101 (@jblazeokey) reported

    Oga I go to car auctions every week, the only way you can get that 2014 vehicle for $1000 is because there is a major problem. Google kellysbluebook that’s where the average American check the value of their car before deciding to go on facebook marketplace or Craigslist. As for copart you can get accidented cars for cheap

  • WinegarnerKevin Kevin Winegarner❌ (@WinegarnerKevin) reported

    @baristachlo You can probably get an appliance repair guy from craigslist pretty cheap to fix it up for you. Probably less than 100 bucks

  • underwoodgeu62 Ginger Underwood (@underwoodgeu62) reported

    @vibrantdad Man came to fix my washing machine and said keep them. Got on Craigslist 4 $200, 10 years ago. He also said keep the concrete sink. Done!

  • SirCumference98 Ryan Farquhar (@SirCumference98) reported

    @UStookit4tee5 @LagerBolshevik All you’d have to do is advertise some free young person blood on Craigslist and you’d get a bite in no time. Your problem is you lack imagination

  • MikeFrancoAR501 Mike Franco (@MikeFrancoAR501) reported

    That's the problem. Here is a potential solution. 1. Partner with some friends and start a service business. At first, it's a side hustle, until it gets going. At first, only utilize free advertising (social media, craigslist) There are hundreds. Washing windows. Yard maintenance. Janitorial. Etc. 2. Rent a place with 4 bedrooms and find 3 other friends to share the space. 3. Everyone puts aside 20% of what they make and invests it in crypto. 10% in the top 3. The other 10% in new coins that look promising (with those, you sell half the first time it goes up 3X, and let the other half ride until it goes up 2X from there, then sell it all once the chart suggests it has started to retrace back down. 4. Work on your credit. Get it above 720 during this time. Pay for everything with credit cards and pay them off promptly. 5. Build your own place. Buy some land. Start going to Youtube University to learn how to build it yourself. With 4 hands, it should be easy. Buy some cheap land (2-3K an acre) on a gravel street just outside of town in an unincorporated area to avoid having to do inspections. If you buy enough land, all 4 can build a house over time on that land. Sweat equity! There are always solutions, but most of them take time, some discipline, and a little help. Our gov should help young people do this by gifting them the land and allowing them to rent the equipment needed for very cheap. Instead. They sit on the land while things go sideways. Makes no sense.

    @aphelimania As a former dog owner (my dad gave one of my dogs away from Craigslist and put the other one down and the other one was also given away on Craigslist) Idk either

  • venilate XR60 Venilate (@venilate) reported

    @sleepysssk @rmTom_ Been a terrible admin system since they started. They found RM Tom on Craigslist. Never have consistent rulings - constant terrible changes - one admin says one thing other says another - the rules never match comp cod. It's just sad truly.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    To find genuine generalists like yourself, skip LinkedIn's hype—try Reddit (r/forhire, r/motorcycles), Craigslist gigs, or local maker/hacker spaces. Network via motorcycle clubs or coffee roaster meetups in CA. Vet with paid trial tasks (e.g., tire fix demo + espresso pull), references, and portfolios. Premium pay ($100K+) attracts real multitaskers. Ouch on that Stockton nail—Ducati rear wheels are a pain!

  • no2wipp no2wipp (@no2wipp) reported

    just did a post on Craigslist for spare patriot systems parts. they made me take down the images of scrap metal, carbon fiber and old stealth paint I picked up at the airforce surplus store. go American. We can do it! WTF are we doing again?

    Can I just shove a couch down some stairs I don't really wanna pay $500 to have a moving company move a single couch . Will this work . Should I make a friend on craigslist

  • Lexi_MAGA Lexi (@Lexi_MAGA) reported

    @sadissmoking You can cut down on rent a bit if you answer some creepy craigslist ads

  • OPENHouse82 Open House (@OPENHouse82) reported

    FSBO solves the wrong problem. It assumes people want to save commission by doing work themselves. But that’s like saying “why do we need Uber when people can coordinate carpools on Craigslist?” The friction is the entire transaction complexity. iBuying solves the actual problem: certainty and speed. Opendoor removes both the complexity AND the waiting. When you buy from a traditional seller, you’re negotiating against someone who sells one house per decade. They’re emotional, often delusional about value, and negotiations are adversarial. Did you get a good deal? Who knows? The comps are fuzzy and every agent has an agenda. When you buy from Opendoor, you’re buying from an algorithm that’s priced millions of homes. Their pricing has to be accurate because they eat the loss if wrong. This creates unprecedented price transparency. Buyers know they’re getting fair market value, not playing a guessing game.

  • MrIMNegative Neg Ative (Neggy to my friends) (@MrIMNegative) reported

    @bostonradio I should have said the Phoenix paper was dying, it died in '13. But the paper was in trouble and not able to cover the stations losses anymore. Craigslist killed the Phoenix,aka the former "Boston After Dark" the preferred paper of closeted gays back in the day.

  • retardedchimp Daquavias (@retardedchimp) reported

    it’s pretty much impossible to die when you have internet connection. people are hella down to help you. some rando off craigslist will literally drive to your direct location and help you if you just asked. you’re completely safe and ok. you have an iphone. chill tf out

  • aschmelyun Andrew Schmelyun (@aschmelyun) reported

    @JoeTheAutoPro @Fumez I made decent money as a 16 year old with this fix. Bought RRoD systems from Craigslist, hardware from Lowes, and used a heat gun on the CPU heatsink to get it to the perfect temp. Out of like 12 consoles I fixed, none of them red ringed again. I still have one!

  • TedMoondust Ted Moondust (@TedMoondust) reported

    @ErdalxToprak @paulg Revenues were eviscerated by the rise of the internet as a platform. Twofold problem: people were able to access free news much more easily, and traditional newspaper advertising revenues plummeted, especially for local papers. (Craigslist et al destroyed traditional small ads.)

  • jawkneespace wavywavy (@jawkneespace) reported

    These guys just kept their heads down and got the job done. They were willing to take any shift I gave them. I say this because I used to run Craigslist ads all year across Ventura County and Simi Valley. Not a single young American man ever applied. Every applicant was related to either farm labor or landscaping. Why? Was it the tough labor? The long hours? Yes. The job was just too hard for the average college kid. But for someone supporting a family, it was a much needed extra income.

  • otrsbb Ted Danson (@otrsbb) reported

    @AshFarms Ahhh nice. I was the unfortunate recipient of something similar. My friends and I always had prank wars going on. So they got drunk one night and put up a m4m craigslist ad using my work number saying down for anything , twas brutal.

  • QUANTAMintlgnce Mikærbøn Danaunit (@QUANTAMintlgnce) reported

    @janninereid1 And yet she has to humiliatingly, shame them, turn down drinks, ignore them , not call, give out fake numbers, lie , walk with a big dog for protection, move away from entire towns, block men on X,FB,TikTok, you tube, messenger, craigslist, but lose that nose ring and he'll call.

  • RogerDeReu 🇺🇸 Roger DeReu 💵📈 (@RogerDeReu) reported

    @MomAngtrades Bought it no money down, 0% on equity in 2018 off of Craigslist

  • ustechgod Fathercptn™ (@ustechgod) reported

    @TheWarMonitor He was running the Craigslist of debauchery... he really didn't deserve all that time. They made an example of him to crack down and get other site owners and hosts to get in line. From what I recall, a lot of entrapment took place, but hell, I dunno...

  • cyoungraps C. Young (@cyoungraps) reported

    The same day I quit, I got offered a freelance 100% commission business funding gig. Only issue is I found it on Craigslist. My advisor told me I could probably get salary plus commission doing the same thing with his friend. Will be speaking with them tomorrow.

    @memeticsisyphus i overheated mine to fix it and immediately sold it on craigslist - sorry, i didn’t make the rules
