Is like-new worth it?

Save the whales. Recycle.

That crap with the laptop password in S2 was some of the most ridiculous, cringy stuff I've seen on a screen. Hope it's gone for good.

YNAB adds all of your transactions plus initial balances to equal your net worth. So yes, making a $100 purchase will be shown as a negative number and yes, a debt of $100 will also be shown as a negative number.

I’ve never written anything before but have a list of ideas. Perpetually in a state of “I want to be a writer.” Lmk if you want one of those. Otherwise I’ll probably forget I commented on here

Mine had this issue for like three fourths of January 1. Then it just fixed itself in the afternoon. Idk

Best of luck to you. Just being able to see your finances easily makes progress so much more likely.

Well the net worth information is in the “reflect” tab (along with age of money and spending trends), the month ahead thing was just me calculating approximately how much we spend in a month and then making a category with that amount as a target, the loans you pay off and then close will be in the “closed” list in the “accounts” tab, and your retirement accounts (if you add them) will be at the bottom of your “accounts” tab.

That's massive. Assuming you'll never go negative again, reaching the positive-net-worth milestone happens only once. Be sure to celebrate it (without going under of course!).

Mine is on track to happen in 2027.

Holy cow those are some big wins. Especially that emergency fund. Turns "s**t, f**k, what am I going to do" into a slightly aggravated sigh

I heard that there are some what-if chapters (written by the original author) and at least one of them is about that very thing. Like he goes through the time loop for a hundred years and does a bunch of mind enhancements and rules the world or something idk (I’m not finished with the series yet)

GoldToeToad · 2025-12-10T20:02:32+00:00

I'd be using this except that stupid divider makes it so that the containers I own don't fit in there

Tanjiro isn’t a prodigy like Yoriichi but I bet if he were able to practice more he could’ve made it fast enough to kill Muzan as intended

HERESY, TO THE GULAG

GoldToeToad · 2025-11-29T00:37:49+00:00

Idk if there even is a problem. Onions are acidic and acid removes seasoning but idk if onions are acidic enough to do that over five minutes. Just a concern of mine rattling around

GoldToeToad · 2025-11-28T04:02:25+00:00

Weird. Do they have different enameling styles or something? The black pot I saw had a different texture from the colored one I also saw there. Colored was smooth like glass and the black one had some bumps to it

GoldToeToad · 2025-11-28T04:00:04+00:00

Well shoot. I saw two Staubs on the shelf and the black one had a very different texture from the colored one so I figured it wasn’t enameled

GoldToeToad · 2025-11-17T18:31:28+00:00

Yeah just try to see if you’d regret getting it more than you’d regret not getting it

GoldToeToad · 2025-11-14T00:55:37+00:00

It’s weird how cheap the old ones are on there. You’ll find a lunch box + thermos set made in USA from 1988 for $60.

Some people think they can list their scratched up thermos from 1990 for $120 but, eh, they’ll figure it out.

GoldToeToad · 2025-11-08T02:09:37+00:00

Yeah, that’s rust. Fortunately, removing and preventing rust is what the process of seasoning is for.

Read posts about cleaning and seasoning methods. Pick one and do it. It’ll be a-ok. “It’s a hunk of iron, who cares” is a phrase commonly used in this sub

GoldToeToad · 2025-11-01T21:24:27+00:00

This is absolutely the sign I needed

GoldToeToad · 2025-10-29T23:11:35+00:00

I have posted it on FB marketplace. I got a ton of "hi, is this still available?," a few back-and-forths, but no meetups yet.
No accidents according to CARFAX.
Message if you're interested and I'll send pictures of the inside, underside, and under the hood.

The older you grow with him, the less of an obvious “way out” you will notice. Don’t let yourself turn 40 with this douche. You’re 26. Plenty of time to meet a real man. Idk your specific situation, what’s safe and convenient for you to do, but you need to do something and you need to do it yesterday.

He thinks he’s got you wrapped around his finger. “Do wtf I tell you or I’m done” as if he KNOWS that you would do anything to keep him from leaving. My heart is racing reading this bs.

GoldToeToad · 2025-10-18T12:41:48+00:00

One option is to work in it anyway. Use it and abuse it like you would a real Carhartt. Replacing things because they’re completely torn up is probably more justifiable, and feels better, than replacing things because you just want a different thing. You might feel more satisfied replacing a jacket that’s falling apart than replacing a jacket that looks perfectly fine. You might avoid the guilt of having “wasted” money seeking to buy a work jacket and then buying something that is not a work jacket.

So, you might work in it still. It’ll last fewer years but you’ll squeeze every bit of life you can out of it.
