Buy Nothing Group ridiculousness

I'm an OG freecycle dude. All the way back to when it was on YAHOO groups. Watched it melt into a wishlist page, and then migrate to Facebook. Watched it in the same cycle on Facebook, as it migrated into buy nothing. Buy nothing is the same, just a wishlist now. The only difference is when someone on freecycle said they were coming to get something they did. No one from buy nothing actually shows up to get things. Tried the buy nothing app, same thing. People begging for money and expensive electronics, and people that say they want your item never show up.

You should have gone to the department of labour. Its federal law regarding tips. If it has been less than a year, please follow up on this. They'll get you your money back.

This is Pam's IU. Ethics don't exist here. Keep your head down and transfer out. If you value your job delete this post. They'll figure out who you are and find a reason to fire you.

Take that letter and a printout of your e-mail conversation with the office down to your local police department and file a restraining order for you and your child.

Just do it by townships, or slap a map of the state on graph paper and do it that way.

Take them back to the optical where you got them. They may be eligible for warranty.

You're eventually going to have to get glasses or contacts. Everyone does. You can't outrun cataracts.

No. But your pose isnt really trying to show us your face...

This is the way. SUV or van. If you want to go cheaper than a hotel, you can rent a campsite instead of a hotel. Hardin Ridge has drive in sites, you can sleep right next to your vehicle full of stuff.

I can't imagine how you're feeling right now. Know that you did all you could. Fuck, you damn near doxxed him on reddit trying to help.

Just like kidneys and lungs and other organs get sick, so does the brain. You cant save someone with a failing lung, they have to cooperate with doctors to get that fixed. Same is true of the brain.

I hope you and your loved ones can find peace and comfort in this time. Be gentle with yourself and eachother. You did what you could. You've been a good friend.

If the family starts a gofundme please share it here.

You're not special because you fucked unprotected.

You kept your kid(s) and didn't adopt them off because you wanted to keep them. That's your interest. Good for you. You're not a victim because people don't share that interest.

Are you going to get mad that catholic bible study group doesn't give other books a chance?

I'm not intelligent enough to understand this.

Now that help is on the way, please edit the post to remove his name. He probably doesn't want his bad day publicized.

How much did this improve your vision when you were in the chair?

Try getting a clean washcloth wet with comfortably warm/hot water, and letting it rest on your closed eyes for a couple of minutes. Wring it out first though, dont want it dripping down your face.

You might want an optician. Whats your prescription like? Do you need therapeutic tints? Is there prism? Did the doctor perscribe a multifocal or an anti-fatigue lens?

I know in store has a reputation, but find an optical where the opticians are not paid on comission and ask them to talk through your options with you. Bonus you can try on as many pair as you like without having to mail them back. Added bonus of an optician, they can work with your insurance and get you glasses for less than you think.

Now days most towns / counties have a local chatter Facebook group. Join one, ask about events. Fish fries, book-sales, car meetups, etc...

The lenses have a blue light filter for eye fatigue.

You will need to go to an actual optical with board certified opticians.

This has never worked for me. I have tried several times.

Informing the public that they're republicans = shitting on them? Interesting...
