I just want to say I'm really sorry for everything you're going through. Life sucks overall right now so I can't imagine adding what you and your family are going through. I assume you and your daughter have a good relationship based on the situation but, if not, I'd try to be as vulnerable with each other as you can manage. It'll really help turn you guys into support structures for each other which is really helpful when things are as rough as they are right now.
I think it's ironic because it's on medium and the first thing that comes up is a giant, stupid, unnecessary picture that is full screen and could lead people to believe that there's nothing more to the article.
One issue that I have here, and I can't view it because the site is down, is that shipping will probably make any of these things not worth buying. Most $1 things aren't worth shipping. Unless you filter for only free shipping?
I'm not surprised at all. Etsy used to be user based and hand made. Now it's just another market place. They still act like they try to enforce "non-mass-produced" but there are countless examples of the opposite being true. Places where people have directly reported instances of this and the problem is still present.
I think the problem is that they stopped caring about their user base and, therefore, became less ubiquitous and people saw that and were like "oh.. time to value them lower.."
EDIT: For the record, this was said to be Plato's definition of a human after Diogenes (probably my favorite philosopher/practical joker) brought in a plucked chicken and called it a "man" in response to Plato's original definition of humans as "Featherless bipeds"
Pretty sure I wrote this in my sleep or something. This guy says everything that I say! Sent it to a coworker and he said he's heard me say everything on the list lol
I was confused by this because I couldn't remember Simon Singh's name but recalled him as the author of the "Fermat's Last Theorem" that I'm familiar with lol.
I got way downvoted for my previous comment. Interesting! lol
That said, I didn't even realize Amazon had a domain registration section. I'm with you that it'll be a total rip off. I'm hoping it's not that absurd because it'd be a really fun one to own!
Yes! Datacapped services are not a viable option. It'd be great to move to cell service as my phone gets faster download speeds than the fastest broadband available locally but I'd be capped at 10gb of data or be paying some outrageous amount for more and that's like 3-4 movies worth of space... ridiculous.
Good luck to you and your family.
