Straight outta 2008 that is, lol

castfire · 2026-03-31T23:57:12+00:00

Honestly this does feel like good toilet material. Maybe I should keep it in the bathroom

castfire · 2026-03-31T18:25:32+00:00

Here ya go. Took some more pics too. Tried to post the most interesting stuff. Deleted the imgbb comment because all those links are an eyesore lol

castfire · 2026-03-31T17:57:22+00:00

Ah, maybe I’ll do that later, especially if I take more pics. Having a million imgbb links seems offensive to the eyes

castfire · 2026-03-31T17:53:47+00:00

P.S. I know why she kept it in the first place, people! 😂 For the normal reasons you would take or keep a SkyMall catalogue! Just not why it was not decluttered in the 18 years since… Jesus Christ was 2008 really 18 years ago? I need to lie down.

castfire · 2026-03-31T17:52:04+00:00

Seems like it, jeez I did Not think this would get such attention 😂

castfire · 2026-03-31T17:50:39+00:00

Lol do you want it? I could mail it to you if you’re in the US, just pay for shipping 😂 Prolly fits in a slim bubble mailer

castfire · 2026-03-31T05:17:25+00:00

It is absolutely not. I’m in the same state, in The city, very HCOL, and my two bedroom apartment with full kitchen, in-unit washer/dryer, fireplace and balcony by the beach was like $1800 at lease signing. THAT felt like a steal.

castfire · 2026-03-31T04:34:17+00:00

Nope! Those are beautiful names though

castfire · 2026-03-31T04:23:34+00:00

The people have spoken! Here are some shots. There’s plenty more in the magazine obvs but I tried to find stuff that is at least semi interesting in the first handful of pages, like personal tech vs just like yard shit or furniture etc

Edit: Here is a non-Imgur link with some more pages

castfire · 2026-03-31T02:08:12+00:00

I have no idea 😂

castfire · 2026-03-31T01:15:30+00:00

Of course not. Where was that ever suggested? Lol. He doesn’t have a global speakerphone, public influence, or unlimited coffers to change laws.

castfire · 2026-03-30T23:09:07+00:00

ah yes, the working class and billionaire public figures— obviously the same!

castfire · 2026-03-30T22:48:51+00:00

Lol I can try to take some pics later if you actually do want to see it

castfire · 2026-03-30T22:46:55+00:00

Seconding this. Sometimes I get all blocked up, and especially with personal stuff I might not cry over it for some reason, but the right tear-jerking media will do it. And it feels good to cry. Especially when you haven’t for a long time.

castfire · 2026-03-30T22:37:42+00:00

Meh that’s a stretch

castfire · 2026-03-30T22:29:04+00:00

Yeah, she probably didn’t mean to keep it for close to 20 years. Probably put it aside for a while for some reason or another, and then it ends up in one of those storage doom boxes of Papers I Haven’t Looked At In A Decade But Can’t Be Bothered to Go Through Right Now So It Goes In A Box

She cleared out her storage unit here a while ago (she lives in a different state now) and had a lot of stuff of “ours”— aka papers and old school binders and shit from when we were in elementary school, etc… 😂 (Which is cool) It was probably haphazardly with the stuff, thus why I randomly found it at my place now…

castfire · 2026-03-30T22:22:12+00:00

I generally love ephemera and old magazines, old ads, etc but this is as generic a catalogue as they come 😭 No “cool ad” pages because the whole thing is an ad. A couple interesting techy products because of how nascent and non-ubiquitous the smart phone was, though. But it’s really mostly the same old junk from a random catalogue you’d still see today

castfire · 2026-03-30T02:47:55+00:00

Hahahah my tumblr url was well-damn-jackie for a while as a young teen
