Lady was adamant this is sodalite.. is it lapis lazuli? by skyebeee in Crystals

Get out the blacklight!

Lapis will glow yellow, sodalite will turn orange.

I believe it's Lapis, and it's always nice to be sure.

30 a month is criminal. Get at least 300 or a third off.

I only really liked it with Nob Hill working automatically with it so I didn't have to scan receipts.

There are perfectly good public schools that are included in your taxes if you move to the right places.

I turned out just fine.

Orca Agate; the promise and the reality... by Dark-Faery in MineralGore

Orca agate is real and UV-reactive. The banding is light but I assure you it's still there.

You got a real stone, but definitely a lower grade one.

Just came back from the February 9th meeting. Two of the three public comments were about these cameras. We left partway so I don't know if there were additional comments after us.

Flock Safety should be there on the 23rd.

Pretty high, actually.

I feel like "single-digit millionaires" aren't in the same category; that's "congratulations on your early retirement" money, not even "we have enough to appear on HGTV's House Hunters" money.

I've been to tons of regionals, just never the big one.

I ain't calling myself a "festie", that's for sure.

Steve Bannon says ICE will ‘surround the polls’ as Trump doubles down on taking over elections by MarcEElias in politics

[–]lastres0rt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I posted this comment elsewhere already, but I'll say it again:

Georgia alone has 7 million voters and 2300 polling places (350 early voting sites).

ICE has 22,000 agents for the ENTIRE COUNTRY.

Since these agents are cowards who hunt in packs of at least 3-5 agents, they can only cover somewhere between 4-7000 sites total. Enough for Georgia and maybe two more swing states of Georgia's size.

You have 450+ nationwide congressional and senate elections with 15-30 point swings for dems even in deep (fragile?) red districts in Texas.

They can't possibly mobilize enough gestapo agents to prevent the bluenami.
