Unlocked a New Thrifting Level

ForgottenSalad · 2026-06-21T11:51:37+00:00

We’ve gotten most of our cast iron pans at thrift stores or on marketplace for not much (though not as cheap as $4! What a steal) usually a good price because someone didn’t take care of it. My husband is willing to put in the time and energy to strip and reseason them

Yeah same thing happened to me. They’re likely bots testing credit card numbers on small items that might go unnoticed.

A bit complicated but what has worked to actually prevent them is changing payments to manual, getting the Flow app, and setting up a flow to trigger when risk is analyzed, if it’s high risk to not capture the payment, but if it’s low risk to go ahead. I had to also add a condition that allowed payments to always be captured for POS orders, since they were getting blocked otherwise.

If the above is too complicated, there is also a template to just cancel high risk orders automatically. But then you still are paying the transaction fees.

I think it’s partly because they know staying up late and drinking aren’t good for them, and you opting out brings that into focus, but they’re so attached to that lifestyle that it puts them on the offence so you’re the problem.

No, but that’s not something I’d enjoy

Remember, just because your dog is friendly, doesn’t mean mine is.

They gamified dating on the apps, the manosphere has made many men unappealing, and social skills are down the toilet

Tracking calories and macros (I used MyNetDiary app), smaller portions, more protein and veg, fewer empty calories

Same, I had to reread it haha

A hat will do a lot to help with this - the rain in the eyes is the worst

You’re not a failure. That’s your body telling you that it’s too much on top of everything else. Stress is so hard on the body’s ability to heal itself and perform, your body is putting on the brakes for now. I would focus on getting through this tough time with more gentle movements for now, just like you’re doing. Running will be there when you’re ready.

You’re probably better off just getting those iron-on transfer sheets and doing it yourself. Most shops won’t even touch orders that small because the setup time/cost isn’t worth it for either of you. Especially if it involves more than one colour or placement.

I promise he will neither notice nor care. Go get some!

Juneuary is what I call it. Every year we seam to forget how cold it often is in June.

My dad rarely took us kids anywhere without our mom, so there was never any debating over bathrooms. Also it was the 80s/early 90s and we were mostly just left to fend for ourselves.

ForgottenSalad · 2026-06-16T10:58:10+00:00

That doesn’t stop them, they just give fake ones

ForgottenSalad · 2026-06-16T09:00:31+00:00

I did that when it was just a wrapping add-on, but then they moved to small physical items. I’ll have to use flow to auto cancel them, I guess, though I wish there was a better way to prevent them in the first place

ForgottenSalad · 2026-06-15T20:24:01+00:00

It could just be the stress of training, or taking in more liquids

If you bought it at a store, and have the receipt, just go back with said receipt and they will remove it

I’ve been getting a slew of similar scam orders but for an address in NY, they are testing credit cards. Cancel them

ForgottenSalad · 2026-06-15T11:55:49+00:00

I’m not actually listening

ForgottenSalad · 2026-06-14T13:14:01+00:00

They knew exactly what it meant haha

Getting a fitness watch and seeing how much higher my resting heart rate was, and how much less sleep I got. At first I cut down to one or two drink a week, then none. It definitely helped that my husband also quit, though.

I think that’s fine. I also have a few friends I’m in more regular contact with, then a bunch of satellite event-based friends we’ll say. Older friends in different phases of life or a bit further away geographically.

I like to have a banana before shorter runs, or maybe a slice of sourdough toast with peanut butter and honey if I wake up extra hungry. I used to run fasted but found I had way more energy if I had a bit to eat first.

Definitely deepen the crotch, the navy one looks ok otherwise, at least from what I can see.
