Wouldn’t that mean Lemmy is fucked if it allows US users? No way instances can afford that kind of moderation.

I am now like double sure they have some sort of stake in overbloated AI centric US companies haha.

I feel like it’s a more middle class/poor US thing. They often also keep their toilet cleaning brush out in the open, displayed in a fancy caddy.

Might just be lack of closet space? Perhaps the plumbing is so shoddy it makes sense to keep it out for easy access.

Do you have a multi use one? Some can invert the flanges into itself to become sink plungers.

Everyone seems to have a cup plunger made for sinks next to their toilet instead of a toilet plunger near their toilet.

A toilet plunger has flanges:

I have seen this plunger close to zero times when visiting people and using their bathroom.

Haha I see I hit a nerve.

This is from being dragged to one every weekend as a child… I speak from experience

My family was in the latter of the two. Obviously I generalized a bit for comedic purposes, but there really are two type of people at flea market.

The ones whose household income is derived from it. I don’t trust these people as far as I can throw them. They lie about their goods, it’s almost always straight from China and marked up like 10x.

Then there are the normal people trying to make some side income. These people are usually older and skew more towards veterans. That demographic just gets prescribed a lot of oxy, and they often borrow or trade.

It just is what it is… And I will not apologize about the shower comment. Nicest people, but most of them could use hygiene lessons.

It’s moreso that the vendors seem to fall into two not entirely seperate categories.

• The sheistiest sheister that you would be terrified to get in a van with.
• Someone who definitely has a borderline illicit script of oxy on them and think bathing is an option, and a philosophical dilemma.

They don’t sell a lot of video games at farmers markets and craft shows… You have to go to a flea market for that, and those are rather dodgy.

Everyone certainly didn’t know this. I got downvoted into oblivion for merely suggesting that this was more about Palestine than China.

How do ads generate enough revenue to sustain themselves?

Because a third of Americans are uninformed, another third is misinformed and thinks the current administration is in line with their goals, the other third is being gaslit by the other 2/3s that this is normal… And for those not buying the gaslighting, they are ignored and still too small of a group to do much.

You would probably put a metal insert into it.

Hmm… I might need to try that. I honestly don’t know

Its for a family members small business where they have an event room they rent out from time to time. His partner pissed off the guy who did their AV setup, so now they are asking me.

It was “Dan’s fault!”

From Canada. The total amount imported or possibly even illicitly produced in the US every month is many many times that.

Neat. I think I am going to try Cyberpunk next because it was recommended twice here and Outer Worlds 2 comes out this year… So I am assuming there will be a price drop for the first one.

I actually did play Deathloop for a while because it was free when I had premium Playstation subscription.

Ever play Outer Worlds?

Open a paper or animal feed factory in residential area and instead of trying to mitigate the smells to the public, amplify them.

That already exists and it’s called every new market on the darkweb. Everytime one goes down its super disruptive because half the things are scams and it takes months of people buying and rating to establish any legitimate vendors.
