  • B Corps mean nothing to me any more, since I learned that Arbonne is one. For those not in the know, that is a multi-level marketing scheme like Cutco, LuLaRoe, and Younique.

    Besides that though, thanks for putting together this list!

    When it comes to things like this, here is the order in which I try to consume…

    • if it’s something I already had, repair it if possible
    • live without it
    • repurpose something I already have
    • find it secondhand
    • buy it from a local small to medium sized business or individual
    • buy it online from a small to medium sized business or individual
    • buy it from a local business
    • buy it online from a large business
    • buy it from Amazon

  • I like calls. Messages are nice for simple and quick communication, but for anything more complex calls are easier.

    I appreciate when the other person asks because I will sometimes tell them, if now is not a good time, when. Usually in like 10 or so minutes so I can wrap up whatever I’m doing.

    Who needs user-replaceable batteries, phones that are meant to be taken apart and repaired (aka… don’t glue the damn things together), or a device that doesn’t actively resist you changing your OS, when you have wrap around display?

    No one can possibly have food sensitivities or allergies to common and cheap ingredients. Everyone is able to cook everything from scratch. Disability is just mind over matter. You just have to MAKE time and prioritize. You need to work more than one job? MAKE the time. Just sleep less. Not feeling well because of that? Well, I struggled too (in college, where I didn’t have many responsibilities and there was also an end date) so you can do it!

    You just have to want it.

    Signed, someone that was given all the speeches when I asked for help because I was broke and occasionally homeless. Makes you not want to ask for help any more.
