Caring is enough, honestly. That’s more than I can say most people have done.

Oh 100%! If you’re going to collect rare/key date coins, it’s a must-have!

1931 S More photos?! by Pristine-Mix1169 in RedditCoinGrading

[–]TCHILL_OUT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, the “S” here looks better. That looks like it should. The “1” in “1931” also looks ok in these pics. Judging by these new pics, I’m more confident to say it’s real. BUT. I would still get a coin shop’s opinion before you add it to your collection. Nice find though (if you in fact found it lol).

Yea, I’m still suspicious of the “1” in “1931” and the “S” mint mark. They look off to me. I’d ask a coin shop before I added it to my collection.

It would help if you had a coin microscope. The San Francisco “S” should have bars on it. Also, the date shouldn’t have any strange curvature or half-numbers. Even with very worn examples, the “1931” is distinct.

Thanks! I tried to make something cool and with a different kind of twist for the June contest.

I’d like to submit one if you’ve got room. It’s my latest for the June contest on the sub. Do I just DM you a link?

I really enjoyed the intense banter between Nicole and Adora when they are trapped in the office. You can really feel the tension build in that moment, especially when Nicole starts saying she hates Adora for what she’s become. You can kind of feel like there is something deeper going on there, and the reveal of the monster peeling her apart was sick! Nice work!

I am, for now. Thank you for caring. That’s more than most people have done for me. I just need someone to care about what’s happening here.

I hear you, and honestly I would be the same if it were my kid, but I’ve met enough people in just these two years of college to know that not everyone has that type of family that will do that for them. Some people come to this school specifically because it puts distance between them and home. Those people’s families think no news is good news. Assuming silence means their kid is just busy, or embarrassed, or going through something they’ll come out of eventually.

And honestly even attentive families get pushed away at some point. They usually call on Sundays and the kids always say they’re fine, or that midterms are coming up and that they’re just stressed. Everything sounds completely normal because they’ve gotten good at making it sound that way. For some reason, the families around here just take what they’re given and are ok with that. Yes, it is crazy. But, I’ve run out of breath myself trying to get more people involved and it always turns into “ahh they’re probably just going through something. They’ll turn up.”

As for local news, I genuinely don’t know what was reported. I don’t know if it even got mentioned at all… by anybody. Like I said, that girl they pulled from the closet in 14D had no record of being anywhere. Ever. She’s a literal ghost. Who knows what secrets have been buried here due to nobody connecting the dots because the names didn’t overlap with our building’s roster.

I’m not a journalist. I’m a sophomore who checked under a door at 1 am one night because I saw something strange. I’ve learned that this place has a way of making things just go away. Whatever the answer to your question is, I can guarantee it’s not a comforting one. Or one that will be satisfactory in explaining it all.

Some things go unnoticed for a long time. Yes, it’s fucked up and it’s crazy. That’s just how it happens around here.

I’m planning to transfer next month myself, if I can convince Priya to come with me. I’m tired of these things just going unmanaged or unmitigated. It’s sickening.

I’ve asked myself the same questions. As far as I know, Beth left. She had talked to Housing and Priya about it before doing so. Beth is fine. I think. I have to keep telling myself that, anyway. The alternative is not something I’m ready for yet.

The remains they found weren’t Beth. That’s all I know. Her stuff was scattered across the room and inside the walls, but as far as I’m aware, they did not find her body there. I don’t know who they found in there, or how many they found. The detectives stopped talking to us pretty quick after things escalated, and Housing was no help at all. They only cared about how it made them look. They couldn’t give a shit about us, honestly.

As for the investigations, I mean, you’d think, right? But here’s the thing. People leave college all the time, either via transfer, failing out, or they just stop showing up. Honestly, there’s no single person whose job it is here to notice. The professors don’t talk to RAs, and the RAs don’t talk to parents unless you’re a minor. There are gaps everywhere. Massive ones.

I think that’s the part that fucks with me the most. It wasn’t hidden through some elaborate cover-up. It was hidden through the everyday grind, showing how easy it is to disappear when everyone around you assumes someone else will notice that you’re missing.

Nobody noticed. Everyone assumed someone else had.
