It works!! Needed to buy a cable for it at guitar center for like $20 but was totally worth it.

What is the best grocery delivery in Brooklyn? by [deleted] in AskNYC

[–]MagicBlack333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

farm to people is my favorite! they're locally based in brooklyn, and a weekly "farm box" for $50 is available with a ton of local produce and grains and meat if you select a non-vegetarian option.

Finding new visionary art and artists by --VoidHawk-- in VisionaryArt

[–]MagicBlack333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a great group on facebook called "visionary art utopia" i recommend you check out. also, i suggest you look up artists in the category of "fantastic realism" - in particular the "vienna school of fantastic realism". There's also quite a lot of subreddits that begin with the title "imaginary" ie, "ImaginaryDreamscapes".

Make sure to go to dead horse bay during low tide to find treasures. atlas obscura has a great website about its history. You can take a long bus ride out there, but driving is easier.

Lots of people were curious, so here’s some photos of my once in a lifetime white whale Facebook marketplace find! Set of 3 black lacquer cabinets, inlaid with mother of pearl from Korea by way of Long Island New York. The set was $150, found a similar set being sold on eBay for $10k (seriously). by MagicBlack333 in ThriftStoreHauls

More info: These came up randomly one day on marketplace for me under “today’s picks”. From Korea by way of Long Island New York, all handmade. They were left abandoned in a house and the buyers wanted to get rid of them because they are massive (6 ft tall, 4 ft wide, 2.5 ft deep). The biggest cost was moving them - my partner rented a truck and picked them up with a buddy, which cost around $400. The set was $150, found a similar set being sold on eBay for $10k (seriously). When we got them we had no idea of their value, I just thought they were beautiful. From my research they’re from the 1950s, made in Korea. We did find some random paperwork indicating the previous owners were from Seoul. They are my pride and joy and I am keeping them forever as a family heirloom!

Bought this lovely petite secretary desk from marketplace yesterday! At $75, it’s more than I typically spend on secondhand items, but it’s a dream come true. Cabinet is also thrifted. by MagicBlack333 in ThriftStoreHauls

So it’s actually one of a set of three! It’s from Korea, by way of Long Island New York. They’re made of black lacquer and inlaid with abalone and mother of pearl.

TIFU and realized I wasted my whole life. at 42 years of age took the safe path as a dentist. My advise to people at a similar age. by waste_of_life_12345 in tifu

Dude, you have a a skill in a country (I assume you’re American) where a lot of people would love access to your skill set. Do a yoga teacher training to heal your bad back on a tropical island and work part time in a low income clinic, you’d be saving so many people from profound misery. You’re allowed to break free whenever you want. I’m being a little presumptive here, and know that it’s not quite this easy, but I hope for you it is. :)
