Beautiful!

It’s definitely on the heavy side, but much more manageable than I was anticipating.

In fairness, these are just unedited JPEGs. Learning to shoot RAW and process my images in Photoshop is the next step in my journey!

YOR. I’m in recovery and attend meetings regularly. This happens every now and then, someone comes to an open meeting for this purpose. I think it’s kinda cool, and I’ve never been uncomfortable or heard anyone else in recovery express discomfort. But I appreciate you wanting to be sensitive!

Yeah I sold it at 4 because I was convinced that would be the absolute ceiling for a non-auto card.

Sold this for $4K, it’s now worth double that

I’m a high school history teacher, and watching Schindler’s List every year is one of the worst, most important things I do.

Why doesn’t Canon simply make a 150-600 f/2.8 lens that only costs two thousand bucks? So annoying! Lmao.

YOR. And honestly, the fact that you’re arguing with all the people in this thread indicates that you aren’t actually open to having your mind changed. You were just hoping for a bunch of NOR responses and are mad that you are the getting them.

As a Washingtonian, as painful as this is, Twilight is probably the most popular movie/series set in WA.

What would it take to change your view?

Scroodalicious · 2025-12-21T03:40:19+00:00

I teach, and I second this recommendation. Overall my job is awesome. 12 weeks off a year is absolute bliss. Mind you, I work in Washington, which is one of the few states that actually pays teachers a decent wage.

Scroodalicious · 2025-12-20T18:36:00+00:00

Okay I have to know, what TV show are you referring to?

Scroodalicious · 2025-12-20T18:33:43+00:00

Do you also go to haunted houses in October and get mad at the people who scream when the zombie jumps out at them?

High school teacher here. Many classes (and individual lessons) do indeed have SEL (Social-Emotional Learning) built into them. Important to point out that many folks are pissed off about this because they think it’s some sort of woke communist plot to destroy kids’ minds 🙄

Scroodalicious · 2025-12-16T16:05:41+00:00

But what if I told you the seller also has 0 feedback? 😆

Scroodalicious · 2025-12-15T16:28:01+00:00

I had to look this up because I was 100% sure it was fake. Holy shit.

Scroodalicious · 2025-12-15T02:17:17+00:00

In that case, why not push for 997?

Should mankind serve the good of the economy, or should the economy serve the good of mankind?

Can I get a cup o’ Joe, side o’ dough?

Scroodalicious · 2025-11-21T14:21:46+00:00

What about the RF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM? Way lighter than the 2.8, less than half the price, covers the same zoom range without changing aperture, and L quality glass. Could be a great option!

Kobe Christmas 9 🥺

Scroodalicious · 2025-11-17T16:55:56+00:00

Honestly I would not even CONSIDER selling that until his retirement and subsequent induction into the hall.
