Looking for recommendations for #European or #Canadian online retailers, featuring products made in #Canada or #EU, with shipping to US, so I can spend my $$$ in places where #Democracy is valued. Constructive #RetailTherapy ?

Things are tough over here, but I think I found the Olde English Selectric I/II type ball that I've been seeking and it should be here next week.

Thanks to @flyingsilk for noticing the sale at #TopVintage. Totally her fault I did some #RetailTherapy there (first time shopper)...

Yesterday afternoon, while I was out and about, I passed by a hardware wholesaler. I decided to stop by, "who knows, maybe I'll find something useful." At the entrance, the door was closed. I rang the bell, and the attendant came out. He had a little dog with him and, as he told me, he had to keep it closed because she’s so playful that she would run out to play with everyone.

I took a walk around the store (more like a warehouse) - I really didn’t need anything - and she followed me, played with my shoe laces, wanted pets and cuddles, it was a nice moment.

The result: I left with 3 SSDs, two access points, three POE power supplies, and other small things. None of this was really necessary (I’ll use everything, of course, but it wasn’t needed).

I think they’ve discovered a new upselling technique

I've got an order in the cart for some reaper minis. 13 minis, $75 (minus $20 in gift certificates), free shipping, and with all the holiday specials 4 free minis & 2 free paints...

But I also just got my bones 6 Kickstarter order in a bit ago...

Therapist: And what do we do when we're sad?

Me: ADD TO CART!

Therapist: No

I may have bought a broken Apple //e off of eBay - $81, includes a few cards. Just need to pick it up this weekend - so no shipping costs aside from maybe $3 in gas.

This is another step to recreate the system we had at home in the mid-80s. Probably not going to get floppy drives though or an amber CRT. Maybe a floppy EMU or a CF card thingie.

When one is having a bad day for various reasons and happens to walk into a shop that sells 300 g/m² writing #paper, it is too easy to accidentally buy a pad simply because the paper works with a #FountainPen. This is a dangerous hobby to have.

Quite amused by Dee’s Nuts.

#DylanMulvaney addresses #backlash to her ‘#DaysofGirlhood’ #song.

Released on 13 March, the #musicvideo ignited #debate over #lyrics referencing “#retailtherapy,” “#overspending,” picking up #meds, a “#walkofshame,” and a “#breakdown” tied to her #personalexperience of her own #girlhood.

My life is spiralling out of control.

So naturally, I blew some money on garbage I don't need from Aliexpress.

... It's cheaper than therapy

Ich hab mir noch 3 weitere Oberteile und ne Hose geholt, meine Belohnung für ne miese Woche mit schlechtem Essen und mediocre Gesellschaft.

My favorite video game, that I have been waiting on for over a year to put out an expansion update, broke some core functionality on the update they just released making it near unusable for me. In other news I just bought two new dresses & a pair of shoes.
