  @schrdngr_catboy @TLCplMax Yes lmao, why would someone who is “targeting” animals go through the trouble of an adoption process. They can just go to Craigslist

  @palmern2Twins Even if you can only afford a $5K clunker from Craigslist, you're still stuck with a depreciating and costly machine that you are completely reliant on and totally screwed if it breaks down.

  PRAIRIEVILLE, LA MAN ARRESTED AFTER TRYING TO TRADE HIS WIFE FOR A USED BOAT, $400 CASH AND A BAG OF FROZEN CATFISH GONZALES, LA — Because apparently Craigslist was down, a 54-year-old man from Prairieville, LA wandered into a Bass Pro Shop yesterday morning and attempted to negotiate what he confidently described as a 'reasonable trade.' The store associate stated the man wanted to trade his wife of 23 years for a slightly questionable 14-foot aluminum fishing boat and $400 cash. Authorities say Rodney Thibodeau approached the boat counter at exactly, pointed at a boat priced at $4,200, and asked, 'What would it take to walk outta here with that one?' When the associate gave him the price, Ronnie countered with a package deal that included: His wife, Denise. $400 cash, and a bag of frozen catfish. Bold strategy. Shockingly, the employee did not immediately ring it up. Rodney then presented a printed document titled 'WIFE-FOR-BOAT TRANSFER AGREEMENT' (yes, in all caps, to ensure the legality of the contract). Highlights from the document include: A 3-day return policy. A notarization by his cousin who authorities stated is absolutely not a notary. A 'best features' section listing 'doesn’t snore very often, able to clean a bass & can siphon gas from a truck.' An 'as-is condition disclosure,' because he wanted to 'keep things honest.' Meanwhile, Denise was sitting in the truck outside, completely unaware she had been bundled into a clearance deal next to a boat with a hole in the hull. The Bass Pro employee did what any reasonable human would do: pretended to 'check with a manager' and immediately called law enforcement. When deputies arrived, things only got better: Denise reportedly responded with a deeply philosophical, 'Where the hell is he', followed by 'I'm going to kill him' Rodney insisted the trade was 'fair market value as the boat, again, did have a hole in it.' Both were taken into custody. Rodney for attempting to sell a human being and Denise for threatening ****** injury against Rodney and 7 other Bass Pro Shop associates. Denise has since filed for divorce, citing what legal experts are now calling 'the boat thing.' When asked for comment, Rodney stood by his decision, stating, 'Look man, it came with a trolling motor mount.' Denise, however, offered a slightly different perspective: 'I have a job. I have a home. I did not sign up to be traded like a dented canoe.' I have to believe there's a lesson somewhere in there, but I've not been able to suspend my disbelief long enough to figure out what it might be.

  Who in the world owns Craigslist? I just heard that Tesla had bought it out, is that true? We listed Belgian Mallinois puppies on there for sale and they keep taking the ad down, saying “some posters objected to my ads”. There are some petty, immature jackasses out there including Craigslist! That’s my rant for the week!

  DAY 8 of coding to make my parents think I have a real job 🚀 target - become a full-stack developer 💸 earned - $0 (the Craigslist pizza guy is asking for updates) told the pizza client the site is "in final QA testing" QA testing means I clicked the button once and it worked so I stopped sent him a screenshot of my localhost:8080 he asked what localhost means I told him it's a private developer preview link he said "wow professional" I am a fraud 2 hours of pretending to know what PHP sessions are 1 hour of actual learning what PHP sessions are I now know what PHP sessions are I immediately used them wrong and broke the login page ChatGPT fixed it ChatGPT is my real senior developer. I am just the one who copies and pastes. status: QA tested. localhost. deeply fraudulent. further less 💪

  @Sarah4Texas @CurrentRevolt There really should not be a problem with this. As long as they’re not all freaks who made porn in an official RNC building and then posting it on craigslist. That should be a standard for both straight and gay people.

  @flurryfrenzy it was due to SESTA/FOSTA which means websites could now be held accountable for illegal content on their sites. craigslist personal encounters shut down around the same time

  @paulg There is definitely a space for rented private workshops. Even boomers who advertise their ****** overpriced garage on craigslist as a cool workshop at the end basically get creeped out if you actually tell them you intend to use it as a workshop. It's a NIMBY issue.

  MEMPHIS MAN TRIES TO TRADE HIS WIFE FOR A BASS BOAT, SAYS ‘FAIR DEAL” Because apparently Craigslist was down, a 54-year-old Memphis man wandered into Bass Pro Shops on Tuesday morning and attempted to negotiate what he confidently described as a “fair market trade”: his wife of 23 years… for a slightly questionable 14-foot aluminum fishing boat and $400 cash. Authorities say Ronnie Buckley-Jenkins approached the boat counter at exactly 11:14 a.m. (because of course he did), pointed at a boat priced at $4,200, and asked, “What would it take to walk outta here with that one?” When the associate gave him the price, Ronnie countered with a package deal that included: His wife, Denise $400 cash A bag of frozen catfish “to close the deal” Bold strategy. Shockingly, the employee did not immediately ring it up. Ronnie then stood at the counter for 41 minutes… just marinating in confidence. During that time, he presented a printed document titled “WIFE-FOR-BOAT TRANSFER AGREEMENT” (yes, in all caps, because professionalism). Highlights from the masterpiece include: A 14-day return policy (because customer satisfaction matters) A notarization by his cousin… who is absolutely not a notary A “best features” section listing “doesn’t snore” and “can clean a bass” An “as-is condition disclosure,” because we’re keeping things honest A checkbox marked “VERY GENTLY USED” (sir…) Meanwhile, Denise was sitting in the truck outside, completely unaware she had been bundled into a clearance deal next to a boat with a hole in the hull. The Bass Pro employee did what any reasonable human would do: pretended to “check with a manager” and immediately called the police. When deputies arrived, things only got better: Denise reportedly responded with a deeply philosophical, “He WHAT.” Ronnie insisted the trade was “fair market value” The boat… again… had a hole in it The employee was later offered a $50 gift card for surviving the interaction Denise has since filed for divorce, citing what legal experts are now calling “the boat thing.” When asked for comment, Ronnie stood by his decision, stating, “It came with a trolling motor.” Denise, however, offered a slightly different perspective: “I have a job. I have a HOME. I did not sign up to be traded like a dented canoe.” Somewhere in Memphis, a Bass Pro employee is still staring into the middle distance, wondering how their day went from selling fishing gear to rejecting a human barter system straight out of 1823…

  @ilikegoodmedia @encrypted_past @GOP__Ls And the obvious difference is Craigslist and FB don't ALLOW drug dealers to openly operate. If you posted "crack for $25" on Marketplace it would be taken down and you'd get banned. They police their platforms to some degree to avoid lawsuits.

  In 2005, Craigslist turned down $10 billion from Rupert Murdoch. No auction. No bidding war. No counter. Just no. Craig Newmark thought selling would betray the people who used the site.

  @mattyglesias Another big issue is the death of local reporting. Local newspapers were decimated first by Craigslist, and then finished off by Facebook. I'm on a couple local councils and the Chamber of Commerce, and there is no good way to keep people informed anymore.
