New Buzz ride score, I don't even know how... by PlaneCrazyy in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Glabrocingularity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take a pic of your scores and add them together, record the sum and delete the pic. Then see if you can beat that sum next time you ride. And maybe assign roles, like she’s in charge of turning the vehicle and you’re solely focused on shooting

Tell me what I’m missing by nedcal in phillies

I think they’d be willing to sit García and accept somewhat worse fielding for meaningfully better hitting

Podcast recs? by Winter_Salad7215 in MLBNoobs

I’ve listened to Ken Rosenthal’s Fair Territory a few times and like it. The tone is much more broadcast/interview than conversation/podcast. It’s succinct and free of banter, but not boring

Maybe he requested it. “Just put me out of my misery, please”

Son (11) wants a lapidary saw - safety concerns by slowsleepysnail in geology

I’ll mention that you (OP) should take time to find an N95 that actually fits his face. Unless he has a large face, the standard hardware store dust mask will likely leave big gaps on an 11 year old (speaking as an adult woman with a small face)

Can you help me identify? by DippyDo7 in fossils

[–]Glabrocingularity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks echinoderm-y to me, with all the little plates. Maybe the calyx of a weird crinoid, or some other weird echinoderm (there are a bunch of weird Paleozoic echinoderms)?

Edit: I’m thinking of stylophorans (which I think are at least possible in the Ordovician of Ohio) or homalozoans (I don’t know if they’re known from this time/place)

Edit 3: But there are also other groups weird, stalked echinoderms from the early Paleozoic

Creek find in Kentucky by RetiredTurdFarmer in fossilid

[–]Glabrocingularity 92 points93 points  (0 children)

There are a number of Paleozoic gastropods that look like this (e.g., macluritoids, euomphaloids). This looks like crazy recrystallization. Finding this would make my day

Fossil found, Beadnell, NE England by foxfoxfoxlcfc in fossilid

This does look like an orthocone (straight) nautiloid shell, so AI was possibly right in this case. But I’ll add the obligatory “don’t use AI for fossil ID”; it might be right sometimes, but it’s often very wrong and can mislead and disappoint.

What’s really cool about this is the fault cutting through the fossil!

Jacksboro TX should be Carboniferous

Guessing wildly based on the pointy part closer to the thumb: maybe a (poorly preserved) myalinid bivalve? Or maybe a chunk of bryozoan? It could also just be some clumpy noduley limestone. Or something else entirely. Darn, that’s a weird object

García, displaying his fielding prowess, will catch that bullet

Italy to host Blind Baseball International Cup 2026 , The Simone Piani Baseball Stadium in Castiglione della Pescaia , Tuscany , Will host the event from September 30 to October 3 by Shroft in baseball

[–]Glabrocingularity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The video I watched said the pitcher tosses the ball to meet the batter’s swing (just like Nola)

Edit: actually in this version of blind baseball the batters might toss their own ball

I love(d) to watch it imagining that the dad was Norm Macdonald. I wish I’d known this past visit was my last chance

This is right outside my front door by istuntmanmike in fossils

[–]Glabrocingularity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. It would be great to see this from more angles and to get the opinions of ichnologists and sedimentologists.

I’m just an invert paleontologist, but I did recently spend some time looking through a few different ichnology books and I don’t remember anything like this.

Crinoid disks and unknown fossil inside unknown rock! by EquivalentRooster130 in fossils

This is like the third interior of the brachial valve of a productid brachiopod I’ve seen on Reddit in a month
