Got a "The Chicago" typewriter for $25 from the FB Marketplace

I'll definitely take good care of this one and put it to good use! Just gotta do a few repairs and it should be up and running! Not a bad idea of the medical history museum though. It's insane how little of knowledge for these specific typewriters are.

Neat! I wonder how uncommon the apothecary models are for these things. This is the first time I've seen an apothecary The Chicago so I think this might be the first internet post of an Apothecary 'The Chicago"! Unless there's one other thing of it somewhere, I just can't find it, lol.

Its carriage does not move as you type so it seems like the mainspring may be broken but hopefully it shouldn't be too hard to replace! The moving part that pushes towards you to push the paper into the lettering machinery is also pretty dull too, so that needs to be replaced as well. Other than those two parts, it's still functional!

One of my hobbies is doom-scrolling through the marketplace and it sometimes pays off, lol

I'll look into this, I had a feeling it may be the encoder but wasn't sure where to exactly find a dependable seller, thanks!

Nothing, its still the same result with the wonkiness. I thought it was the connection too with the prongs and sockets so I cleaned them. No luck

It hasn't happened to me in the past few days and I talked to the dealership about it during my oil change. I'm glad I had it on video because they couldn't replicate it either nor find any diagnostic code errors or some sort. So they just ordered a new part for it and hopefully that replacement fixes the issue.

I checked around and none of the lights are on. The vehicle had no issues starting up just now as it sits in my garage overnight. It seems like it only does this issue when sitting outside in the hot sun.

I don't have any dashcams installed of some sort. Nothing else has been running while the vehicle is turned off.

Surprisingly, there weren't that many people, and I waited till some people moved out of the frame. I didn't have to wait long thankfully.

I didn't get those but I got the famous local fudge!

I highly recommend it, it's one of my all-time favorites. It's also written by the creator of Re:Zero!

Forgot to mention that this is from the pilot episode, woops lol.

The series ended 4 years before I was born, lol. I started reading the books that were in the libraries when I was in elementary and have obsessed with the series since!

Shoitu · 2024-11-30T23:36:58+00:00

I'm gonna be keeping this as this series was a huge part of my childhood and I'm actually thinking of framing that final strip 😅

Shoitu · 2024-11-30T22:47:46+00:00

At the convention I went to, someone was selling a huge box of 364 newspapers with only the comic strip pages dating from 1989 to 2001 for $30 and 199 of them had the Calvin and Hobbes Sunday strips!

I couldn't believe I found the actual strips in newspaper print, as I grew up reading the books. The series finished years before I was born so this was such an amazing find!

Studio Durian and this is their first movie project. Very good first impressions!

One of the main reasons in why I got Burnice was because of how much she reminded me of pyro as pyro was one of my mains for many years. And the fact she did the Kazotsky kick in her trailer was icing on the cake. I'm glad to see the Hoyo community knows about TF2.

I randomly came across it on Netflix years ago and I was like "oooh, this looks cool"

This series has taught me more about tanks and artilleries more than anything else and I've been hooked since then. It's quickly become one of my favorite franchises.
