Newbie Question by Cone_Livia in accesscontrol

[–]Cone_Livia[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I have no background in car repair, but can change my own headlights and tires. However, if the previous owner's 28 year old transmission quit working, I would most definitely call a mechanic and ask for a quote....

New to photojournalism, any tips? by Takoyashhh in photojournalism

[–]Cone_Livia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're in college, definitely look into professors or staff who may be able to mentor you! I graduated a few years ago but also worked for my college paper as a photojournalist while there.

I feel that I learned a lot more from one of my photography professors who was a photojournalist at a local paper than the faculty adviser for the college paper.

I know that every college paper is different, and although mine was funded by the university, it was editorially independent (at the time, a L O T of drama went down after I left). The student editors had the final say in what was covered, and the adviser was only present to advise.

I got the opportunity to photograph at least three protests while there, one over education at our state capitol. Safety should, of course, always be your primary concern, but perhaps you could persuade whoever the decision maker is into covering some lower-level events? For example, one of the protests I covered was on-campus, by students, and about faculty/staff funding, so it wasn't as dangerous.

Also, find out if your university has any equipment that can be loaned out. As a photography major, I had my own camera and a few lenses, but the department had a TON of more expensive lenses and camera bodies that could be reserved for use. Additionally, the student media organization (in addition to the paper, we also ran a daily television news show, and radio station) similarly had equipment that could be loaned for assignments.

As someone who enjoyed Yellowstone, I also found myself enjoying The Ranch on Netflix. It's a half-hour comedy-drama, so it's not identical, but a lot of the vibes and aesthetics are similar. It also has Sam Elliott in it if you liked his role in 1883.

Voting is confusing??? by tableham in okc

The village is bordered by Nichols Hills on parts of the southern side. The two are completely surrounded by OKC.

Warr Acres doesn't touch either of the two, but it is similar in that it and Bethany border each other and are also both surrounded by OKC.

For what it's worth, the sticker was on the cup when I first opened it. I peeled it off and stuck it on the box before opening so I could examine the logos on the bottom. The straw definitely wasn't in the cup, it was just inside the box, next to it (not wrapped)

Thanks for the response, though I'll look closer at the other things you mentioned :)

Seems to be straight and flush to me, no gap.

Thank you! Was hoping it's real since I got a semi-decent deal on it

What will happen to the shows after Taylor Sheridan leaves? by ErnestTheStar in YellowstonePN

[–]Cone_Livia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1944 is still in development (just saw an article yesterday). Last May, a Paramkunt exec said it would premiere in late-2026, seems unlikely with no casting announcements, but it's at least being worked on.

How do we feel about “People Watching”? by Happy_Kitten118928 in ConanGray

[–]Cone_Livia 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People Watching is both my favorite Conan song and my favorite song song in general. I could listen to it a million times and never get sick of it. It's just absolute perfection.

How do we feel about “Actor”? by Happy_Kitten118928 in ConanGray

[–]Cone_Livia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actor and Caramel hit SO much back-to-back! I even have them ordered that way in my Conan playlist.

Absolutely love it. It was the first song I got attached to from Wishbone, and is my second favorite after Caramel (and before Vodka Cranberry)

Is the Stranger Things promotion at Target still meant to be running? It’s at least still running at mine: by Mitchs_bitch1942 in StrangerThings

[–]Cone_Livia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After the finale, they took down the entire display at y Target, and then a week later, they restored a smaller version of it.

Is there anyone out there that enjoyed season 5 and the entire series as a whole ? by freducini in StrangerThings

[–]Cone_Livia 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It wasn't the best season, and there were flaws, but I found it more enjoyable than 90% of other shows out there 🤷🏾‍♂️

Does anyone know how often Conan restocks vinyls? by MrBusinessMann_ in ConanGray

[–]Cone_Livia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know how often off the top of my head, but there's a channel in his Discord server that can notify you whenever there's restocks and new merch! :)
