#litotimancy — Public Fediverse posts

#thriftfu #litotimancy for this week (so far): 9 books (5 GNs), 7 VHSes, 18 toys (3 stuffed), 2 tees, 1 necktie, 2 USB tsotchkes & a print. Total #tithe = ~$87.

BONUS: A coat I saw & loved, but for $600 it can stay right where I found it.

Although I was mistaken that #nationalthriftshopday was Saturday, it WAS yesterday. I very nearly missed out on it completely, but omw home from the gym I hit one shop for a 1 yo's jacket for a #Muppet Whatsit I found in a Philly #thrift shop years ago, & several small toys from street vendors, for a combined #tithe of $15.

This was likely for the best, b/c #thriftfu #litotimancy sent me ALL THIS in the previous couple weeks. (I'm afraid I can't tally them up right this moment: I'm at work.)

Last night's #thriftfu #litotimancy was brief, but fruitful:

• 2 CDs;
• 1 book;
• 1 shaving kit;
• 1 of the funkiest shirts on the planet (center top); and
• 18 small toys

for a total #tithe of $51. #occult #Magick #defendedbe

The 2 shirts at top right & left are new #POD #PrintOnDemand #TeePublic orders, both #robot themed.

I really need to pull back on the #thriftfu stick: I don't know what #litotimancy is trying to tell me. Sun eve after work at a shop I've patronized for >20 years I found:

• 11 books (only 2 GNs!);
• 2 neckties;
• 1 vase I formerly owned (!!);
• 14 VHS (!!!); and
• a #Miyazaki #StudioGhibli stuffed toy

for a total #tithe of $49.50. If that wasn't enough, I found the toy assortment on the right Mon pm on a Jackson Heights street corner for $9.

And I saw the last for $11, but didn't buy it.

Tues eve I once again went to the same #thrift shops as the previous week, just UWS franchises thereof.#thriftfu #litotimancy delivered me:

• 8 books (3 GNs);
• 2 CDs;
• 5 LPs;
• 2 tees;
• 2 VHSes;
• 4 DVDs (incl s1-3 of THE HANDMAID'S TALE);
• pineapple-shaped tea lights (set of 6);
• set of stencils;
• 3 buttons;
• a #Snoopy & #CharlieBrown #Peanuts diorama; and
• a #HexBug #VexRobotics kit, condition unknown.

Total #tithe = ~$95.

What msgs do you scrye from this strange I attract? #occult

Since gaining a new housemate I'd broken my fast w/a $60 #tithe that netted me, among other things, 26 vinyl records, but I didn't truly unleash the #thriftfu beast til this Tues eve, when I hit 2 of my usual #litotimancy haunts. For a TITANIC tithe of $170, I got:

• 1 LP;
• 3 CDs;
• 1 VHS;
• 1 cap;
• 1 pair funky shades;
• 2 tees;
• 1 polo;
• 1 long-sleeved shirt;
• 2 pairs of pants;
• a matched Bonobos outfit (buttondown shirt & slacks) racked separately;
• 1 hoodie; &
• 7 books (4 GNs).

As I walked home from the train on Sunday evening I spied something sticking out of a garbage pile. When I got close I saw that it was a large framed #Uniqlo #kaws x #Peanuts #Snoopy poster. I missed out on any of that line when it was current, and I'm well-known as a #CharlesMSchulz fanboy. Once I determined that it was unbesmirched, I ganked it & carried it home. It'll be incorporated into my collection in time. #thriftfu #litotimancy

This week's #thriftfu #litotimancy finds thus far, for a total tithe of ~$70. The white & gold hoodie looks like the Cyberpunk 2077/Assassin's Creed crossover that's inevitable. #occult #Magick #strangeattractor
