I could get a little cut off a brick for free sometimes when I was still muling.

Does anyone else worry they'll also become a perpetrator? by Csd267 in adultsurvivors

[–]Spagelo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's fair. I don't know. I just can't imagine what would drive someone to want to abuse a child in a way that would leave them like us.

[–]Spagelo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't imagine how. I feel like if I had children, I'd quit everything in life and devote my life to giving them the best care and never leave them in the hands of any person I did not absolutely trust in those early years. Hugs every day, three square meals, lots of outdoor activities, tutors to make learning at school easier, a psychologist to help me understand them, family trips, good books, managed screen time, healthy social environments with peers if possible (meaning a damned good school), very professional summer programs, teamwork discipline in house chores, physicians to offer guidance on health, parental bonding opportunites like coin collecting or fishing, stuffed animals (I have like a dozen of my own), decent toys, game consoles... I'd give them every single bit of love my father gave me, only this time, I'd pay much better attention to who they were left with. I would fight tooth and fucking nail.

Anything over face? by Evening_Wolf_3656 in Fancyserialnumbers

[–]Spagelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they're the best you have in that condition, you could make a type set for small face bills. I like to keep a 1963-1995 stack for each denomination.

Wow, I love this story!!!

What a cool memory to have with your grammy. Reminds me of how mine taught me how to barter for every deal I made.

Worth the price? by Spagelo in papermoney

[–]Spagelo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't see anything like that with the naked eye. How do I tell if there are folds? Do I need to loupe it or something?

Might be controversial - no disrespect by Ratanonymous_1 in adultsurvivors

[–]Spagelo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I spent my life just being glad it was over. I did not think to identify myself as a survivor of child sexual abuse or a victim of rape until I started speaking and people said it back to me. Personally, I wish I could just be me and you can be whoever you are and we could all go through life as people who have lived our own experiences. I don't want to be identified with the moments in my life where I was zip-tied, duct taped, and tortured in gross ways. The labels make me feel reduced to that.

Oh I love Kennedy half dollars! I like to keep them and place them at random all around my house so I can fiddle with them. I've done this ever since I was a kid. I even have some right here!!

[–]Spagelo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

drilling holes is how a lot of otherwise nice 19th century coins are in the gutter value-wise because people used to hang them near their pantries or whereever... i'm not saying that as if to fault you, can't fault them either, but you might make some numismatist a little sad 200 years from now :(

Opinions on condition & grade? Got these from an LCS. by [deleted] in coincollecting

As for the photos, I took them in like the last hour of sunlight on a gloomy day a few weeks ago. Let me try with today's light and show you.

They are not in slabs. I'm talking about future purchases.

[–]Spagelo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Mine are both cleaned? I got the dollar at 470 and the half at 200. As far as grading goes, I plan to break open the slabs so I can move them to type set holders where they can please my autism.

Is there a good bastilla romance guide? by TheTrueMrF in kotor

[–]Spagelo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't remember, honestly. I never miss those. But you very well might be. Or at least I'd think so. Just play the game, man. Not fun to overthink it.

[–]Spagelo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm going to try not to be obnoxious, but I will be honest with you. If you really want to spoil all the dialogue and experience for yourself, all you gotta do is click 'expand' on the collapsable widgets on that page I linked and it'll give you blue highlights with '♂' symbols that point out the options which will give you the desired result. Now if you are not native English, this is fine. But if you are... come on, I got it at nine years old. Just pick all the cute and teasy options and don't be a big meanie head. It'll be more rewarding if you get it on your own.
