How about selling on ebay?

I apparently need someone to show me how as I've sat on a pile of unsold crap (that others sold no problem) on that.

You're smart enuf to do it...but your brain & body
are getting in the way. Put'm in their place!

I think it's more being austic combined with growing up sans neighborhood, community and neighbors and being bullied in school to the point I learned how to avoid people instead of learning to interacting with them and forming relationships with them.

That's the advantage of ebay...minimal human
contact. I'm sure that a resourceful person like
you can find books, classes, or info on the internet
about selling there.
The problem I find is inertia, ie, getting started.
You're too young to be a lazy & comfortable as I.

You have a job and thus can support your patron bum. Stop complaining and screw your knees up enough to need another surgery giving thanks you can support that bum.

I doubt I'd feel sorry for them if they all spontaneously combusted.
Texas bill would ban nearly all gender-affirming care, including for trans adults

The problem of my life I'm very skilled and good at what I do. Doing things with other people is not one of those things.
Kind of Van Gough. He had all these paintings, did lots of work, but he himself was never able to do anything with them.

There should be plenty of ways to make
money over the internet. How about
making crafts or other products to sell
on ebay, etsy, etc.

TX and FL leading the way back to 1000AD.

Given what's going on in TX and FL, I"m stocking up on my cupboard of insults. Here's just a couple. A word to the wise about your RF posts today: there's many more where these two came from.

Cumberworld Also called a cumberground—someone who is so useless, they just serve to take up space.

Abydocomist Abydos was a city in Ancient Egypt whose inhabitants, according to one 19th-century dictionary, “were famous for inventing slanders and boasting of them.” Whether that’s true or not, the name Abydos is the origin of abydocomist—a liar who brags about their lies.

Actually that's false. @Rival shared with me some medieval thing, some investigation into something I don't remember, but it included a MtF living in a nunnery as a nun and those "dark agers" found no wrong doing and nothing wrong with it.
In lots of ways contemporary American Christians are more primitive and backwards than they were when the kingdoms of Wessex and Frankia existed, and hardly in any ways improved (like how still cling onto what they think are holy relics). Amd those "primitive" Christians coexisted with the Danes who invaded their lands amd worshipped other gods. Todays True American Christian simply can't be bothered to be asked to mingle with such obvious sinners.

I like assling. "Fruit of the ***" is how it was described in one od the Saxon Tale/Last Kingdom books (allegedly even Alfred the Great was fond of the word). Gob****e is another favorite. And you can never go wrong with schweinhund.

Been over that. I need to be taught how to do this so my stuff doesn't float around unseen and unbought (even got permission to link here once and went nowhere).
And etsy, they're either going to have to change how it does business or it's going to get killed off by all the stores hawking counterfeit, pirated and otherwise illegal items violating copyright laws.

We may have one (or more) of these in this thread

Zoilus was a Greek grammarian who became known as one of the most vitriolic critics of Homer, author of The Iliad and The Odyssey. Consequently, a zoilist is an overly-critical and judgmental nitpicker.

Fustilarian
Another of Shakespeare’s best put-downs, coined in Henry IV, Part 2: “Away, you scullion! You rampallion! You fustilarian! I’ll tickle your catastrophe,” Falstaff exclaims. If not just a variation of fustilugs, he likely meant it to mean someone who stubbornly wastes time on worthless things.

Dorbel
As well as being another name for a nincompoop, a dorbel is a petty, nit-picking teacher. It’s derived from the name of an old French scholar named Nicolas d’Orbellis, who was well known as a supporter of the much-derided philosopher John Duns Scotus (whose followers were the original “dunces”).
