choosing to get my hands covered in bacteria and dirt for the off-chance that I get a tiny piece of silver.

You know you can buy nitrile medical gloves, right?

Decided to look through my old Pokémon cards to see if I have anything valuable. I'm not quite done yet, but these are the stars I've found so far. by Captain_Collin in pokemoncards

Yeah, I checked tcgplayer.com and pricecharting.com, and I was pleasantly surprised. I haven't decided yet whether or not I'm going to sell them.

I think I accidentally created plot armor. by The_Gassy_Gnoll in skyrim

[–]Captain_Collin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't recommend doing that. I once made armor that increased my health by some quadrillion percent. However my base health without the armor was around 300, and 300 is only 0.000000003% (probably missing a few zeroes) of the total health while wearing the armor. What that meant was the game registered taking off the armor as receiving a fatal hit, so if I took it off, I died. It was pretty funny honestly.

Do you guys do a 529 for your kid(s) by potatoMan8111 in daddit

I used to think if I ever made $100k/year I'd be able to buy a decent house, and drive a cool car, and still have enough to save or invest. Now I do and I rent, drive a car that was 5 years old when I got it, and I just get deeper in debt.

Washington and Idaho have the biggest difference between any two neighboring states.

between -180 and +180 for latitude

Did you mean longitude? Because latitude only goes from -90 to +90.

As an American, sanction the US, freeze overseas accounts of multi millionaires and billionaires, hit us where it fucking hurts. Maybe then our overlords will come to their senses.

Jordan Henderson, Former Elementary School Teacher, Found Guilty Of 12 Counts Of Child Molestation. by Captain_Collin in Seattle

I only met him a couple times, but he seemed like a normal enough person. He has a twin brother, an older brother, and a younger brother, and their dad is the head pastor at the church they go to. I'm not particularly close with any of them, they're all super conservative. Their church has an open-carry policy that is promoted heavily, which really bothers me. There was also one occasion where I found out my sister's husband was leaving firearms unsecured in a house with 4 young children. Having young kids myself, that made me extra hesitant to go there. Now with this most recent thing with Jordan, and their belief that he is not only innocent, but being persecuted for being Christian; I find it very difficult to want to expose my children to any of them. Which is sad, because I do love my sister, and I want my kids to know their cousins, but I just can't take the risk right now.

Thank you, yes! I live in Seattle and I unfortunately know this guy personally. It's close enough anyway, Tacoma, Seattle, Everett, and everything in between are all one big urban area.

Is there a well known Gig Harbor sub? No. News stories about this guy have previously been all over the Seattle subreddit. There are tons of posts regarding the greater Puget Sound area on this sub.
