You can buy a rug for like $40
(hexbear.net)
Technically neurotypicals can do this too.
No. It is forbidden
Cheap rugs are great but I think they are making you pay too much for your breakfast ingedients
productive capacity can drastically reduce the socially necessary labor time to produce a given item
true, but also imperialism enforces drastically unequal exchange of socially necessary labor time
It's kind of astounding how much you can get for so little. And not just due to exchange rates or heavy exploitation, but also massive increases in productive forces.
I got a nice cotton washable runner rug for a pet (so that I could machine wash it if needed and so it was pet safe) and it ended up being like $12.
On the other hand I accidentally bought a $30 scratch off ticket today and won nothing
The $5 to $10 dollar zone has kind of fucked my perception of cost. I open online stores and everything is sold for that price. There are complex devices/circuits on Aliexpress being sold for that much. Household products are sold for that much on Amazon. Couple it with frequent discounts, sales, and whatever in physical stores, everything is sold for that much. Basically I'm unable to understand if something should probably cost less than $5 and that I'm overpaying, or on the other end I auto-reject things that cost more than $10.
oh I could use one of those, got a link?
Links or it didn't happen. (Seriously though last time I bought a rug I got screwed and I need another one soon.)
Which sellers?

What is Neurodivergence?
It's ADHD, Autism, OCD, schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, bi-polar, aspd, etc etc etc etc
“neurologically atypical patterns of thought or behavior”
So, it’s very broad, if you feel like it describes you then it does as far as we're concerned
Rules
1.) ableist language=post or comment will probably get removed (enforced case by case, some comments will be removed and restored due to complex situations). repeated use of ableist language=banned from comm and possibly site depending on severity. properly tagged posts with CW can use them for the purposes of discussing them
2.) always assume good faith when dealing with a fellow nd comrade especially due to lack of social awareness being a common symptom of neurodivergence
2.5) right to disengage is rigidly enforced. violations will get you purged from the comm. see rule 3 for explanation on appeals
3.) no talking over nd comrades about things you haven't personally experienced as a neurotypical chapo, you will be purged. If you're ND it is absolutely fine to give your own perspective if it conflicts with another's, but do so with empathy and the intention to learn about each other, not prove who's experience is valid. Appeal process is like appealing in user union but you dm the nd comrade you talked over with your appeal (so make it a good one) and then dm the mods with screenshot proof that you resolved it. fake screenies will get you banned from the site, we will confirm with the comrade you dm'd.
3.5) everyone has their own lived experiences, and to invalidate them is to post cringe. comments will be removed on a case by case basis depending on determined level of awareness and faith
4.) Interest Policing will not be tolerated in any form. Support your comrades in their joy!
Further rules to be added/ rules to be changed based on community input
