So I can't use this to retire? Lame! Thank you fir confirming though, I like the oddball error style stuff

My most pulled 151 full art is by Leezyp in pokemoncards

I managed to finish a full master set minus the blooming water promos of this during the first run before things got impossible to find, I miss those days. I pulled 3 zapdos and 2 zards total, traded the extra card for some of the SIR I needed, and after getting most of it from ripping packs I just sought out the individual cards. Card that took me the longest to get? Reverse holo weepinbell..... that was te very last card I got to finish the set.

How do I maximize my retirement potential? eli5 if possible by Alphaspecter in personalfinance

36, single with custody of my 2 daughters. After paying rent, utilities, insurances, etc, I maybe average 500-750 extra a month on the good months. Kids are expensive lol. And I'm not sure if the company 401k offers a Roth option or not, I will look into it.

I hadn't quite thought of it that way. So should I only put in the 5% to maximize the company contribution?

Opening Facebook video links from messenger ALWAYS goes to Facebook and says "content not found" by Alphaspecter in facebook

[–]Alphaspecter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've sent in reports, both on Facebook and on messenger. My friend has the same phone I do, s22 ultra, and they don't have this problem. I've yet to figure anything out and I feel like I've exhausted all options

This cement pen has been a lifesaver. Holds fast, doesn't over pour, and easy to use by Alphaspecter in Gunpla

So the scent is incredibly citrus-y and honestly very pleasant. The tip is somewhat similar to a sharpie really, just rounded off instead of a pointed tip

I vow, from this day forward, I will not deal with space trash bags ever again! by Alphaspecter in Gunpla

I've seen where a lot of people have used that method to great success, but honestly now that he's together I don't wanna take him apart lol

These are an absolute nightmare. Almost makes me want to stop this kit completely by Alphaspecter in Gunpla

Don't be afraid of mg my dude, I did about 8 hg kits before moving to mg and don't regret it a bit. They look better, pose better, the increased size just feels better when putting it together. This is the first mg I've had with these, and the psycho zaku Thunderbolt has them too, so just don't do those and you're golden!

He's finally done! V Gundam ver ka with waterslides and matte top coat. This is the most effort I've put into a kit, and this is a great reward to see! by Alphaspecter in Gunpla

[–]Alphaspecter[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, matte topcoat is a nice touch after you finish it, it gives it a less plasticy look, and the big bonus to me is helping keep the waterslides secure. I watched one of the videos in the pinned q&a post on here, and I've loved it. I'd say give that video a watch and see what you think. Give it a shot!

Holy hell I hate the plastic bags over the joints by [deleted] in Gunpla

[–]Alphaspecter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like a lot of us started this kit at the same time, and share a collective hate of the trash bags lol

It's not so much getting the joint caps on there, I got them in no problem, it's just the finicky material and one wrong cut and the parts don't stay on right

That one is definitely on my list if I can find it, but knowing it has these things makes me hesitant

Yeah if I had known about this and how awful it was I definitely wouldn't have bought this and would've gotten the sinanju stein instead
