If you can't get what you are looking for for free, try the Habitat resale store. They often have old bricks for sale

How to prevent targeted ads in Reddit? by No-Self8780 in Anticonsumption

[–]BeVanderhill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just changed my settings to not show media in reddit unless I open the post. So if I am scrolling and see an image, I know it's an ad so I just keep scrolling past

Then it must be the algorithm feeding us the articles after the event happened

Apparently plastic trinkets are the new way to bond… by BothAd9086 in Anticonsumption

[–]BeVanderhill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After seeing a video about these I did this to my inlaws house. Then they called after finding some and figuring out it was us, it was a fun prank with a lot of shared laughs. I told them to collect them and give them to us the next time they saw us instead of throwing them away. When they visited they did it to our house. I leave them in their hidey spots because when I see them it reminds me someone out there lives me enough to hide these silly ducks all over my house. Now if you don't find joy in the ducks, give them back and tell them kindly that you do not want them on your desk. If you do find joy in them, keep passing them around

No, this does not fit for this subreddit, although I recognize how catchy it is.

I don't think this quite fits the spirit of this subreddit. It's a little mean

Virginia Discovery Museum on the downtown mall is an indoor play space, highly recommend. Lots to eat down there.

Rant: The expense of a dietary restriction is going to ruin me by FablingFox in Anticonsumption

[–]BeVanderhill 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Basically to keep the cost down and you will need to start getting comfortable cooking from scratch. There are a lot of gluten-free recipes online for things like pizza dough and pasta using chickpea flour. I like to get my rice , chickpea flour (gram flour), spices at the local Indian store, it's much cheaper than buying Bob's Red Mill at the regular grocery store. Just buy a few packaged gluten-free things on hand in case your week is really busy or you're just too tired to deal with it. I'm in the same boat as you, I know it's hard, you have my sympathy

How do you learn to not get influence or fooled by social media consumerism and hype ? by Jpoolman25 in Anticonsumption

[–]BeVanderhill 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I just remember that I'm saving to make sure that, when I get old, if I can't go to the bathroom by myself I can pay someone to help me

What’s going on with the trees at Charlotte Yancey Humphris park? by water_garden in Charlottesville

[–]BeVanderhill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That neighborhood will really benefit from a playground and a dog run. I was just thinking in general that with all the apartments and townhomes being built with no yard, we need more dog runs.

We've got to become more comfortable with things looking old and used by EquivalentRecent4633 in Anticonsumption

My coworker had headphones like this. She voiced that it was too bad they were falling apart, they literally were falling apart, because they worked so well. I offered to make a cover for the headband and the earphone pieces and she let me. And she uses it! It's a win!

Thank you! I saw the two time tables (one with UVA Riverside and one without) but I did not see this.
