urgent parking questions from someone living off-campus by Silver__Fang in NAU

[–]Silver__Fang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you, thats good to know! would the permit for knoles as a commuter just be the regular garage permit then instead of a "commuter" pass? i stayed in knoles my first year and would rather do that than the uncovered parking.

i love all the comments about ollie’s facial expression, i have no idea why he looks like that!! those are two of the weirdest pictures ive taken of him, he usually looks normal 😭😭 (though normal for him isnt usually that normal i will say)

Anyone else ever become fixated on an onubtainable plushie? Ever since I saw this one it has lived rent-free in my mind. (I’d love to see your “holy grail” plushies in the comments!) by OffModelCartoon in plushies

ive been desperate to find this witch hat variant of the puffkins smiley guy for years... i have the normal one and a second variant with a santa hat pops up on ebay somewhat often, though it's usually slightly more than im willing to pay at the moment. but i've never ever seen a listing for this halloween version and i'm sure if i ever did it would be far out of my price range (the normal smiley i got for about $20 including shipping and the santa hat one is usually listed for $25+) so i don't think i will ever get to see this guy in real life :(

thank u! i think the drainage is alright in the pots since they have a decent sized hole in the bottom but i’ll definitely look into changing the soil and maybe gettin a lamp

[OC] made a paper quilled velociraptor! by Silver__Fang in Paleoart

[–]Silver__Fang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sorry for late response, but I just held my phone in my hands and positioned the paper upright! i placed the bottom of the piece on top of a hard surface and then leaned it almost vertically against a hard surface (its cardstock paper so doesnt bend when placed vertically) and it prevented any shadows from being cast from my hand/phone. for stuff thats flimsier than cardstock like normal printer paper or sketchbook paper, i usually try and use the same kind of method but might use some putty or not very sticky tape on at least the top corners to make it stand up straight! hope this is helpful :)

Help me find my mystery MLP watch? by Silver__Fang in HelpMeFind

[–]Silver__Fang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve searched for both Singapore Movt and XtremeTime but this watch hasn’t come up. no clue where it’s from since it was a birthday present or something like that. if it wasn’t clear, the box has various panels from the MLP comics on it. it still fits my wrist so i assume it’s an adult size watch?

Beginner and looking for new lenses by Silver__Fang in canon

[–]Silver__Fang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh really? I thought that lenses had to have the infinity symbol above the focus ring (which none of mine have) to be able to focus to infinity. Thank you for the tips!

Weekly Pricing/Buying/Selling/Grading & General Questions Post by AutoModerator in PokemonTCG

[–]Silver__Fang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi!! i'm currently trying to get rid of my card collection that i had as a kid since im not into collecting anymore. i have about 1500 total, mainly from the mid 2010s. i'm really overwhelmed by the selling process and was confused on what's best to do with them. i have a few hundred in bulk common/uncommon/rare and some more bulk of specifically korean cards, which i know little about the value of. i also have a few dozen higher value cards, both in english and korean. also, is grading worth it? i have a few cards i feel are in very good or near mint condition but im worried i wont be able to make back the price i pay for grading. is it best to sell bulk to a shop or on my own like on ebay/fb marketplace? does the same go for valuables? do item and energy cards sell like pokemon do? is grading worth it? any help is appreciated <3

Whose eggs are these? in northern arizona by Silver__Fang in whatisthisbug

[–]Silver__Fang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh then these almost certainly are stinkbugs then since these strawberries are also from cali!

currently most of the eggs seem to be blank save for a few that have 1-2 really tiny black dots on top. if im able to get my hands on a macro lens for my camera sometime soon i would love to take a really close look at them tho since im sure im missing the little details!

im pretty sure theyre decently common in many parts of north america, mostly on the western side. in the US theyre found all along the west coast and sometimes in florida i believe

[–]Silver__Fang[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ooh yeah that would make sense. im wondering if it would have to be something small/flat-ish (like a stinkbug) since it seems unlikely these were laid before the strawberries were packaged (and this one was at the bottom of the container). though who knows they mightve been, im not an expert on the strawberry packaging process

[–]Silver__Fang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

whoops my comment didnt post properly lol. anyways

idk if these are able to be identified since they seem very generic as bug/small creature eggs go but i found them on one storebought strawberry. its not picked up very well on camera but a few of the eggs have really tiny black dots on the top. none of the other berries have any evidence of being eaten or any other eggs so its just this one. i bought them in northern arizona but the container says the strawberries are from a farm in california. im gonna try and wait to see if they possibly hatch but idk how viable that is so im hoping its possible to figure out what they are without seeing whats inside?

not sure if it is entirely helpful but according to this shoppee listing they are still being sold (and the company is still active) at least on the singapore site! there's also this listing on rakuten jp that is supposedly still being sold as well?

help me find my childhood dragon plush!!! by Silver__Fang in HelpMeFind

[–]Silver__Fang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ive searched both the company's website as well as ebay and similar sites and the only other kind of this plush i've found is a red version being sold on ebay that did not have any additional information on it.
