If you're struggling with the cost of living right now (reasonable), this is your PSA to...
Google universities/colleges near you.
If you can't get out to more than one, look up which one has the highest tuition.
Look-up when the graduation date is
Drive neighborhoods near the university the week before graduation
So much stuff gets left out on the curb. Wealthy college students tend to prioritize convenience over money, so instead of carefully reselling their perfectly good stuff, they frequently give it away or put it out with the trash because that's easier than moving, reselling, or donating. Take advantage of this.
I furnished pretty much my entire apartment from college giveaways and yardsales.
What I got for free:
Mattress and box springs
2 10 ft area rugs
The massive 9-drawer chest (that has a label on the back that it was custom-made and shipped across the country) that my TV sits on.
This was such a fun and relatively simple project, it's rare that I finish something in one night. I wrote down some basic steps below, but honestly this is so adaptable, e.g. you could use any clear cup or little bowl and fill them with yogurt and fruit instead. I hope you give it a try and make it your own!
Process:
1. Use candy melts to pipe the red and blue on the inside of some small clear containers. Chill until it's firm, then carefully spread frosting around the inside. You could also just use white chocolate or whipped cream, etc.
2. I filled mine with confetti cake and whipped cream frosting, but again you could fill it with anything you want like fruit, granola, etc. You could even stop here, they're cute already 🥹.
3. To be extra, I added another layer of cake that I'd frosted with pale yellow spikes for that classic Togepi look, plus other details piped with frosting.
Justice League identity reveal where they don’t know who Batman is and one day a bunch of them walk in on him just casually eating yogurt in the cafeteria with his cowl off. A bunch of them recognize him, a couple don’t, and they’re all shocked.
Turns out Batman didn’t realize none of them knew who he was, since it had taken him all of ten minutes and three google searches to put everyone’s secret identities together and he just assumed they had all figured it out by this point. Or maybe he had meant to tell them and then just forgotten. Either way, he regularly interacts with half of them outside of hero stuff and hasn’t bothered with the whole separate persona thing with them in years. Shouldn’t they really have figured this out by now? So what if he forgot? This is clearly on them.
I had a dream last night that the republicans started some anti-lgbtq+ campaign titled “Fear the Queer”
But then almost immediately after conception, us queer folk quickly adopted it as our own, and artists were all over making “Fear the Queer” shirts and pins, users were adding it to their bios, and others were commenting under the republicans posts like “Yeah you should fear us, we bite” etc etc
Guys do u know that one meme where there's a girl and like a bodyguard (???) ordering drinks and the waiter give them the wrong drinks so they switch them on the last panel,???????? BECAUSE I C1NT FING IT^
