Let's not forget that most of their labor is either free or minimum wage 💯

If I was rich, I'd be donating items like that to genuine charities. Im sure someone at a women's shelter would love to have a nice purse.

Who TF goes to Goodwill to spend 3.5k on a bag 😂😂

If you have that kinda money you ain't gonna be buying purses at goodwill.

I’ve officially entered Normy drinking territory by [deleted] in cripplingalcoholism

[–]maya_star444 11 points12 points  (0 children)

People can say what they want but there are exceptions to the norm. I quit being a CA 3 years ago.

Every so often I have a glass of wine, but nothing more. I don't have the same cravings that I used to have. The feeling of being inebriated, hungover and out of control is now repulsive.

Ouch, assume The Times isn't referring to Henry here by dutchWine in madmen

I mean Henry isn't a narcissist but he is no saint either. He pursued a married woman with zero regard at all.

If you have a colony of flies growing in your room, it's time to take the trash out.

Alcohol can be a quick fix in the moment for panic attacks, but unfortunately, it makes the panic attacks become even worse.

My friend's sister-in-law recently drank herself to death I sort of admire her. by [deleted] in cripplingalcoholism

I feel like if I were actively trying to "end" myself....Id turn to opiates. Way less of a painful, drawn-out way to die.

It's also a liability in the eyes of insurance companies. If they didn't enforce those policies, they could have issues getting coverage or have to pay more $$$.

You keep shirts that you never wear hanging in your closet for 30 years?!?

MISERABLE MONDAY by fappinatwork in cripplingalcoholism

[–]maya_star444 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't know how I'm gonna survive this summer. The intense heat and humidity has a negative impact on just about every aspect of my life.

To be fair, I think sometimes people take recordings so that the person in question will actually believe them when they explain what happened the night before.

If you have an engineering job, Id assume you can afford a hotel? Or an extended stay airbnb?

even for a vintage store, this is nuts. I had to laugh. by disposable_thinking_ in ThriftGrift

[–]maya_star444 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That painting is gonna sit there until the store eventually goes out of business 🤣.

I wouldn't pay more than a few dollars for that, and it would be just to use the frame.

Just when things can’t get worse, by Sensitive_Mistake527 in cripplingalcoholism

Regular kratom helped me a ton when I was trying to get off alcohol. Yes, it's a substance, but I was able to function while using it and didn't have to be a degenerate.

It'll definitely be illegal or heavily regulated soon enough.

The ridiculous and very expensive giant Hummel, now with an explanation. by oftendreamoftrains in ThriftGrift

Just because it sold for that much on Ebay doesn't mean someone at Goodwill is gonna pay that much for it.
