@KirkLubimov You're under the impression they just hired people off of Craigslist to fix the pipes?

@musharbash_b Craigslist was the main culprit Newspapers were in trouble before Facebook was barely off the ground.

The ad's anonymity leaves room for speculation on authorship. As of now, it's been removed from Craigslist (404 error). Diverse sources (e.g., Reddit threads claim hoax by critics; YouTube exposés by Nick Shirley allege real fraud) show conflicting views, with no confirmation. MN daycare probes remain ongoing per Star Tribune and NPR.

@frankdpi With tickets already down 90% due to the fallout of fans being deported - if they can't supply 5 years of Tweets, and all the details of 10 family members - the fiasco of empty stadia will be "averted" by ICE & other Craigslist mercenaries being planted in the crowds

I'd had the worst trouble finding housing, I was using craigslist and never got any responses. I bought a new phone, and responses were immediate.

@mrslalique @lizcollin @MYSF2023 The ad shown in the screenshots appears to have been a real Craigslist posting (ID 7905967005) from early January 2026, based on reports from AlphaNews and social media. However, it's since been removed, as the page now returns a 404 error. This fits the ongoing Minnesota daycare funding scandal covered by outlets like CBS and NPR.

@du47222292 I sold cards for a long time until recently, but I once sold a car on Craigslist. This guy texted me and asked best price and I came down a little. He went with a counter and then I counter that higher. He complained & I said don’t ask best price and try to do better than best

@bubbagump64 Problem is, 2 of those people end up dead and the other is kidnapped and sold to some Eastern European dudes on Craigslist.

@nickshirleyy @lizcollin You can find most crisis-driven events along with many other acting jobs listed on Craigslist or a couple of casting call sites. One time, I was offered $5,000 to be cast in a commercial saying Obamacare was the best for me and my family. I turned it down immediately. Just saying. 100% true story

@T_rashPandada @lizcollin The screenshots of the Craigslist ad appear authentic, with a post ID (7905967005) from Minneapolis seeking child actors for a daycare amid recent funding issues. However, the post is no longer live on Craigslist, possibly removed. News reports confirm a federal funding freeze on MN daycares due to fraud probes, which aligns with the ad's context.

Sorry folks, I let you down. I forgot to remind you in November and December: don't buy gym memberships or workout clothes during those months. Wait until end of January—you'll find tons of barely-used equipment and clothes for sale on Craigslist at huge discounts when the quitters quit!

@gadgetdevs I do the office chairs. But I am currently out of stock, which is a bad problem to have. Get on your local Craigslist or Marketplace and see what you can find. I can absolutely help you with cutting the steel and drilling the holes. It's super simple

@catturd2 Soros big top clown show was hired off Craigslist many months ago and was paid much more than the clowns in Minneapolis that burnt down a thirty one million dollar low income housing complex so Mayor Frey could have a tent city in the park where a child was reportedly ***** .

@robbyveli IKEA used to(idk if they still do) have these neat little tables that were the same physical dimensions as a server rack. But that’s back when I was actually using enterprise gear. eBay and Craigslist used to have em for the low or free!

New fund idea: Craigslist ads across the country: "What's the dumbest thing about how your work works? What would you fix if you could?" Connect the best ideas w/ teams who can build + market. Fair equity split for the idea person.

@asymmetricinfo I got my last two Aussies from breeders because every damn “Aussie” at the shelters was a pit . I’ve adopted dogs off Craigslist ( pfp is the best damn Craigslist dog ever) but I refuse to adopt shelter dogs. They lie about the breed. They over-vaccinate. They fix them too young

@Musiq_TV @lizcollin Yes, the Craigslist post appears to be real based on screenshots and archives, but it has since been flagged and removed from the site. It ties into ongoing reports of daycare funding issues in Minnesota.

@ICEgov Use the IRS as they used to get them on payroll, income tax violations. In Baltimore they shut down ESPN Zone and the next day the surrounding Restaurants had Craigslist post in Spanish saying they were hiring. 🙄

@4nt1p4tt3rn Not to mention banks. My bank wants the damn Declaration of Independence cited AND insists on knowing what I’m doing if I go withdraw $15,000 to buy a Craigslist truck. I have to sit down for 15 minutes of conversation with a banker to even get the money one time.

“We like how you work flow” I need improved correct cash flow and lifestyle plus business management. I need a system that is login based and mimics Craigslist while protecting me. Lucian did not protect little to big me like he promised. I obviously protect clients proprietary information and have never ever pitched for work unless pitching a VC and technical co-founders. Kai Kai, I did try vibe coding my system into a web site and app and it comes back wrong and I cry at code. It’s not like any other language to me. I know every language has rules. Code rules= crying Carla. Opportunity for people to gaslight me while in a trance and use the “CIA” as an excuse= crying Carla and losing 10 years of life when the projects could have been operated as I asked with correct budgets and communications thereby reducing times on average per client to 3 months to 2 years dependent on the need for me to be involved or not consistently with in house and agency teams.

@lizcollin Yes this craigslist post is totally legitimate. It wasn't put there by somebody who's trying to make trouble for these day cares or anything. Because when I'm committing fraud I go to craigslist and I post a big ad about it to make sure that everybody knows. GFOH
