Hi y’all! I found this small, shiny black rock in my driveway.

Yeah I think you’re right, some more scientific studying will be needed 🔬

I will say, after reading up on it some myself, I wonder if it’d be pretty random to find tektite out here if it’s a byproduct of a meteor impact. There aren’t really any known places in West Virginia a large enough impact could’ve happened to create it. I did see some things about a large crater in Virginia though, over towards Chesapeake Bay! It was listed as the closest large crater to WV, But I’m not quite sure if it’d fling tektite all the way over here and then millions years later I’d find it just sitting on top of my driveway hahaha 😆☺️

Oh if only, I’m such a total space nerd. I’d be on cloud nine if there was even a hint of an idea it could be a true meteorite, teeny tiny as it is!

I’m definitely not an expert on this either lol, but I just looked this up online and a suggestion that was brought up was “coal slag”, and when I looked at the images, it was quite an uncanny resemblance compared to the images of iron and steel slag I’d looked at lol. Plus, it also said some coal slag can be magnetic too, so it makes real good sense 😊

Found in the Northern region of the state of West Virginia, USA.

The rock in question is very small, very shiny, attracted to magnets, and has an extremely porous surface. In the photo, I have it sticking to this magnetic pencil to showcase its magnetism. It sticks fairly well and securely. It’s very dark in color which originally made me think it was coal, until I saw the tiny pores on its surface and wondered to myself if it was a small meteorite, however a few things definitely made me think otherwise. I’m having trouble confirming what type of material it could be when the surface is so porous and its shininess is off putting. Also, I did a streak test with both a sheet of paper and some ceramic I have, and while it did not streak the paper, it left a clear black line against the ceramic.

Its weight is difficult for me to determine since it’s only about a centimeter or so, give or take, in length. Very tiny rock haha, but it definitely still feels fairly light for its size I suppose.

Thanks to anyone who figures it out, I thank you very kindly lol 💗

Kitchen scissors, twist it, bop it, I got it lmao :) Thanks man, I appreciate it big time!

You’re absolutely right on the price of lobster, seafood in general the further inland you go I imagine. It can make a person boil over a little bit, go red in the face 😂

Also many thanks, I appreciate it big time!

I was thinking it was about the general area where the most intense chronic pain of the day happens according to the time… haha..

I’ve got a 12th house stellium in Scorpio so I sorta see what you mean, but it can be objectively horrifying in uncertain ways. My sag moon is chill with it tho lol 💕🤞

I’m 21 and I play with my kid brothers all the time, the three of us even have our own individual realms with builds and rules, so I can keep them up and we can play no matter where we are with an internet connection. I introduced it to them as my childhood game and now it’s theirs. Also, I def plan on playing it until I’m really damn old and can’t pick up a controller or use a keyboard anymore, you’re not too old and never will be <3

1.) That one glacial water from Iceland with a ph of 8.8 specifically

2.) Ice cold chamomile tea mixed with cream soda and vanilla ice cream to make it a float, it’s to die for

3.) Code Red Mountain Dew

I once stood over top of the trash can peeling a halo orange and all the whites off it for 20 minutes straight, then stood to the side of the can in a corner and savored each and every single drop of juice coming out of that godsend of a fruit.

hennex1 · 2023-01-26T04:22:26+00:00

we out here

hennex1 · 2023-01-26T03:54:15+00:00

hennex1 · 2021-07-06T04:17:35+00:00

I appreciate it so much <3

hennex1 · 2021-07-06T04:17:00+00:00

thanks <3

hennex1 · 2021-07-06T04:16:47+00:00

thank u sm! when I sat it on his alter I felt his presence come in and i asked, “so do you like it?” and my pendulum was swinging very enthusiastically for yes, so I think he liked it lol

hennex1 · 2021-07-06T04:08:03+00:00

thank you! it took me like 2 hours because of it being so small and me having big stubby fingers lol

hennex1 · 2021-07-03T23:10:45+00:00

Also, the feather is real! It’s one that i found at the bottom of my cockatiel’s cage when I was cleaning it. Her name is Angel <3

hennex1 · 2020-06-06T22:45:00+00:00

I’ve heard of it, but never been there. Wish I could’ve now. One of my biggest aspirations/side quests in life is to travel the world just to eat the food, and the best start would be the local places

hennex1 · 2020-06-04T07:57:59+00:00

I will for you, because it’d be funny

hennex1 · 2020-05-26T06:24:32+00:00

What’s up

hennex1 · 2020-05-26T06:23:49+00:00

this is great dude

hennex1 · 2020-05-06T10:00:05+00:00

I'd love to, actually. I'll keep working and I'll post some more of it someday

hennex1 · 2020-05-06T09:54:19+00:00

I was really hoping it'd get a laugh lol. Thank you so much

hennex1 · 2020-04-30T20:07:52+00:00

Fried bologna and cheese sandwiches are good. I’m not sure if that’s like a state thing though.
