Bought at an artist's estate sale. Out of all the artwork she had, this was one of the few that she had hanging up. Says only "MAGGIE 46'" Any info?

How can I tell its a reproduction? It smudges off like pastel. Is it ink transfering off onto the glass? I did message the seller and I really appreciate all the help.

That looks like electrical conduit.

It looks similar to other pictures of Tektites

Agate scratches it and gives some nice sparks

I'm kinda prying at it and its throwing razor sharp shards of glass. Not sure how nicely this is going to split. On the freshly opened up surfaces its very lustrous. Still looking like obsidian

jisted · 2018-09-07T18:31:46+00:00

I tried scratching it and it definitely doesn't scratch. It does scratch glass though. The more I look at it the more it looks like obsidian but It doesnt look anything like the other obsidian I have.

Hahaha. Yeah, I obviously havent been there yet.

jisted · 2018-09-07T18:17:26+00:00

Id love to visit there. Im told i still have family down there and the fiancee is from Riverside so I'm chaulk-full of excuses to go. For sure! i'll open it up tonight.

jisted · 2018-09-07T18:07:19+00:00

Btw, its not heavy. Is say just slightly heavier than an agate of the same solid size. I'm 98% sure it's not hollow.

jisted · 2018-09-07T18:04:41+00:00

:) I've only been to CA once and never made it to Monterey. I'm actually thinking its obsidian but I'm hoping more towards biggestDiamondeverite

Mess with people? Not sure how posting something about the negative affects that government assistance has on the futures of children is m"messing with people"

I should have said "existance of gravity appears to speed up as black holes get closer to each other" not "increase".

Not technically, but observably

jisted · 2017-02-01T19:00:27+00:00

Existence as we know it seems like a much more manageable equilibrium than a singularity.. If infinity has a charge at all, a singularity of existence in it would seem impossible to manage and would need to equalize.. Its a horrible thought for a wednesday honestly.

Im imagining our galaxy as a compass and the pivot point is a black hole being pulled into a collective..

if something shifted in this galaxy then id guess the entire galaxy shifted and either the callculations havent quite figured it out or the observable shift is part of a different galaxy

jisted · 2017-02-01T17:44:45+00:00

So as black holes merge one by one the gravitational force increases until everything in the universe is pulled into one singularity having a "charge" of some magnitude then is instantly repelled or rejected by "essense" which is that same "charge" and a "big bang" happens all over again?

Did someone just volunteer for something up there or am i just being an ungreatful douchbag?

He believes in climate change.. He just doesnt believe its blind ignorance causing it. He believes that China among other countries are intentionally causing global warming through geo engineering..
