  • I would love if I could just walk to a store nearby, unfortunately it’s going to take at minimum 45 minutes of my time to go and buy anything in person.

    It just makes sense to buy online unless I need that thing this very instant. I don’t have to spend any more of my free time than the 5 seconds to order something, and can instead get on whatever needs to get done around the house.

    Either way, an employee is still getting paid to oversee the purchase of the item (cashier vs delivery driver), and a vehicle is still being driven (a car vs a delivery truck, the delivery truck is probably more eco friendly due to servicing multiple people vs my car servicing just me, as well as skipping the warehouse to store step in a lot of cases. Although still bad, I’d prefer just walking if I had any stores round me. I do have a local hardware store at least, so there’s that)

    It’s all relative to the individual’s circumstance, there are of course instances where I need something the same day, and so try and figure out which store I need to go to to get it now. And then they’re out of stock and I go elsewhere.

    From my viewpoint, it simply makes sense, from others’ it might not.

    I did too, and also stopped. This is the last dream I had written down, and I didn’t understand it at the time, I still don’t understand it now.

    “Me and my sister (not real sister) are taveling together, and we have the help of the universe/internet. She can talk to it, and I can… do something I forget. We go to like a Mexican restaurant, and try and get some food. I ask universe if I could speak to it as well, it says no. We also learn that there are 6 other people with connections to the universe in Southern England (apparently where we are). As an internet sweep begins (everybody but us is frozen and things lag a bit), one of the other internet people comes to the store. Then… I wake up lol. Thats the end”

    Fellow electrician here, I’m convinced that electricity is magic. I’ve only been in electric for 2 years or so, but I’ll be damned if I know how that shit works. The copper touches together and that equals light, or motors spinning, or whatever have you. How? Idk, smarter people figured that out, I’m just here to make sure the damned drywallers don’t cover up our magic copper
