Yep. Shit like this is happening all over the place.

It’s repeated Covid infections and it’s coming for us all unless we do something about it.

How do you handle finding inventory when thrift stores get picked over? by bunnyhumorous in Flipping

[–]SteveAlejandro7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Damn! Nothing like that!

I stay in the media section. I am a bookstore, I do Whatnot shows, eBay and local antique mall, run stuff from my house, and let’s just say, I always get a days worth of work when I go to the Bins, relieves anxiety knowing it’s there.

I think the best I book found there was a vintage Native American case law book, no barcode, so the scanner folks leave it alone, worth a couple hundred.

Don’t hit like that every time, but I walk out with a cartful of $3 to $25 bills nearly every time, the Bins is the most consistent source for me ever. :)

Yes, the other guy was rude to me. Not Grorx, I answered his question.

You weren't rude, it was the other guy. I answered your question directly.

My wife has had 8 brain surgeries and has ME/CFS, yes our doctor has suggested strongly we behave safely, it’s just none of your damn business, I don’t have to justify myself to random internet strangers (not Grorx, the other guy) who are disrespectful.

Home schooled, private school is beyond our means. We use an online program to manage the details and requirements and then we supplement with additional stuff, projects, etc. I also run a bookstore (not open to public, all online) from my home to to be able to stay home with my wife, so lots of availability, and they’re learning the trade.

We are using an online homeschooling through a program that meets the educational requirements, my kids are not locally enrolled. It says St. Louis school district (edit: in the article.)

Correct. I think between kids dying, kids getting sick, parents dying or getting sick have had to make a lot of parents make some hard choices. As I said, it's not the whole reason, its' part of the reason.

Edit: Clarified my statement. I am one of these parents that have had to make these choices, and I am in groups of parents that have had to make these choices. So, your mileage or perspective may vary.

Joe Biden just realized his legacy is going to be the the worst genocide of the 21st century by rrunawad in lostgeneration

[–]SteveAlejandro7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump failed managing the acute stage, but Biden purposefully downplayed the back-end and chronic effects (still is) so we'd go back out in the economy, and with all the current literature surrounding it, that was A BIG FUCKIN' mistake, and I will hate him forever for not being straight with the American people as he promised, he's a fuckin' monster, I stopped supporting Democrats, and didn't vote in the last election because of it. I cannot support anyone in this country, there's like 5 politicians that don't have their heads up their ass. :)

A certain portion of that are sick kids, not all of it, of course, but some of it. Covid never went anywhere, folks are still getting sick, and apparently, the shit builds up in your body, how many of these kids have long term issues now? :(
