For me, there were several dollar store trinkets that already broke, and one toy for my kids that was a huge sparkly styrofoam mess waiting to happen, so I threw it out rather than curse anyone else with it.
Why not? They’re fun and benefit numerous good causes, such as services for elderly citizens and low-cost prescription medication programs. No one of stable mind really thinks they’ll get rich, but it’s nice to win a few bucks here and there.
Meal planning carefully to take advantage of sales, buy in bulk when possible, and eliminate food waste. I have my meals planned out through the end of January and I do this every month. The money I spend on groceries has halved since I started using this approach.

Ah you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it.
A more literal translation would be “Wait, you think darkness is really cool? You actually just leaned into (or stole) the darkness, you idiot. I’m serious. Not to brag, but I feel the darkness strongly, no lie.”
I donate to a local group that provides housing for homeless youth. Before donating, always check where the money actually goes - there’s a few good websites for this that breaks down the org’s budget for CEO pay, marketing, etc.
What gifts that you received for Christmas this year are already in the trash?

Favorite Charities?
What are your favorite charities? What do you regularly give to? I have some empty space in my “secular tithing” budget that I’m looking to fill in.
What is this wire for? (www.imagenetz.de)
At one end of the wire is a 3.5 mm Jack plug. On the other end of the wire is presumably a glass LED....
