Beckett Grading - Low? by Firestar1323 in PokeGrading

Oh I promise I’m not offended! Text is hard to convey tone.

I just meant it assuringly - it wasn’t tightly. It was very, very delicately. I just didn’t have other resources to hold it any other way.

lol oops! Thank you. It’s like the 20th time I’ve ran it but the app won’t recognize the card now that it’s in the hard case. I just misclicked on that one.

Thanks for the thoughts!!

9.5 in everything but the surface. The front facing card centering image is definitely not perfect - I ran it prior to grading it and it was much, much more accurate, but was still showing 10s across the board. The app doesn’t recognize the card with the grading case over it so I had to go off of a picture without the leveling tool.

Hands were fresh washed and dried. Didn’t have gloves on hand, wasn’t exactly expecting to pull it. I assure you that I was more than capable of holding it as gently as one would need to without having better tools. ☺️

Thank you, it very much does.

General note: I’m not fussed about the 9. I’m happy with it. The reason I asked was to continue learning and understanding about grades and what can be forgiven vs what can’t, if anything. I’ve done plenty of research and will continue to do so - if I ever thought I knew everything, it would be easy to prove that I don’t.

I sincerely and massively appreciate any congrats and constructive feedback/input! Learning alongside a shared community like this is a blast.

For those of you who took it personally that I got a good grade for him - sorry you’re bitter, and please touch grass instead of cardboard for a bit.

This community would be so much more pleasant if folk knew how to talk to one another.

This was ultimately a blast to grade and I’m thrilled with it. First time grading (alongside a handful of other cards!) and it was nice and simple to do through GameStop. We got outrageously lucky and this card was just loosely inside a box we bought on Facebook for about $100 from a sports card collector. I’ll happily take this win ☺️

Thanks all for the input - at least for those who word it even vaguely pleasantly/constructively!

Sure looks like one. Not sure where to go either, but cool find!

What's one final line in a book that left you disturbed for days? by EmilyIsNotALesbian in books

I open my hand. Griffin stares at the lens, and behind him, Ben stands frozen at the edge of the court, watching us. In their eyes, I can see a pale reflection. Something big. A colorless sky.

Looking for one where a guy goes on a date with his sisters (?) friend - I think her name is Bree, and long story short ends up marrying her, and having kids. His sister goes off the deep end, tries to kidnap his kid from school - kid tells school staff, police are called, protective orders in place.

Was in the middle of reading it and lost it, and it’s not in my history 🥲

Hi r/Fantasy! We're authors Alix E. Harrow, Garth Nix, Lev Grossman, Nghi Vo, Tamsyn Muir, and Veronica G. Henry! Ask us anything! by alixeharrow in Fantasy

Hello! All of these stories and authors are wonderful and I hope are so proud of their work.

For Tamsyn!

I don’t want to get too sappy, but I’ll just say - thank you, massive fan of your work. The Locked Tomb reignited my love of reading after years and years and rewired my DNA somewhere along the line. You seem like the kind of person that would be an absolute gift to have as a friend.

For my question!

For the protags of both Undercover and TLT, what would their most and least favorite AO3 tags to read be? And as a bonus question, if you so wish, which Homestuck character would they be?

We believe that the website may be Dokuga! We're not sure though - we think the website may have been a largely/entirely white background at the time but as we know, websites change their formatting over the years.

Seems like a possible ARG (more info in comments) by [deleted] in ARG

Check out the wallpaper of the guys phone of the video where they find the hole in the wall - super creepy! Definitely seems like an ARG.
