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.

Good luck to you and your family.

It does do that at the beginning before you start

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.."

Honestly, I had to scroll down like 10 categories just to find my queue. Netflix is screwing with us, I think...

This has been solved.

Featherless biped with broad flat nails.

lol

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"

50 cent supposedly recently had a similar problem. If you try to act rich people will think you are rich.

I am aware that his situation is still confusing as to the actual facts but I am speaking more in an analogy here confirming your sentiment.

I'm with you! First off, authenticity is king in today's world. Second? This article screams entitlement. Well said!
