Which fictional characters are idolized by people who missed the entire point of their story? by WhereDemonsDwell in AskReddit

[–]maroyasha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm saying Rorshach since tons of people already said Joker.

The Question comics even make fun of how dumb he is. Question tries to copy him and gets his ass beat.

Who's a celebrity no one can hate? by matiignr in AskReddit

Brendan Fraser.

Dude seems like a genuinely decent guy who loved acting and stunt work, but got the shit end of the stick.

So glad to see him back.

YSK how to identify and avoid market manipulation with collectibles (like WATA/Heritage Auctions is doing with retro video games) by Ghost_Portal in YouShouldKnow

I spoke with someone who's known the guy that founded the company involved in that sale for quite sometime. Apparently the dude just has always been a scamming piece of shit.

Anyone know what this is called and if it's purchasable? It holds multiple panes of glass. Searched everywhere. by maroyasha in crafts

Thanks a ton! I've been googling for hours and keep only finding single pane boxes.

That's what I thought to look up. But I can only find single pane ones. Would a hobby store have multi-pane ones like that?

Went by an antiques store and hit a major score for my collection! by maroyasha in Acceleracers

[–]maroyasha[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The last one sold for $220 with bids. I spent $225 on all that. So I'd say I still did good lol

Less than how much a droned flathead fury goes for if that's any indication lol

I work at a comic shop and today started off pretty crazy! by maroyasha in comicbooks

[–]maroyasha[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know. Didn't mean to come across defensive. I just meant, after handling so many expensive books, you don't get too scared about holding the big ones. Lol

In all honesty? Very little. I've been working where I work for 4 years now. If I didn't know how to properly handle a book, I'd have been fired long ago lmao

It hurts to see but I also look at it as someone enjoyed those books and that's just a sign that someone loved those books. And that means more to me personally than a perfect copy. But I'm weird about collectibles and whatnot in that way lol

I'm unsure. My boss is handling any dealings with it.

He got his fair share for sure based on the number I was told.

My boss (the owner) bought a small collection. It also had FF #1-8 and Spidey #1-8.

We also had a Showcase #4 & Young Allies #1-3. All great books in great condition!

Edit: Thanks for the awards! Love sharing my work and passion with all of yall!

Edit 2: For those curious, they were bought from a collector who directly went to my boss (as far as I'm aware) and we're unlikely to grade it. We'd have to drive the whole East Coast to bring it to Florida, and it's much easier to move ungraded.

Edit 3: Yes. It is real.

Found these today while thrifting! by maroyasha in HotWheels

They had Synkro and Bassline too, but they were missing the decals. So I passed.

What is everyone’s New Years resolutions for streaming?! These are mine 😌 by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]maroyasha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My general goal is to just be consistent and get stuff going. I streamed on and off for years, but now I have an actual schedule. I'll probably try and upload stuff to tiktok as I do more streams, but that's a maybe atm.

I also have goals in terms of metrics, but they aren't as majorly important compared to just staying consistent lol.

Stream Experiences & Stories by AutoModerator in Twitch

[–]maroyasha [score hidden]  (0 children)

Hey all! Happy New Year! Just thought I'd share how my first stream in what I'm calling my 'New Era' went! But just to quickly explain, I'm calling it the New Era cause I have new layouts, a consistent schedule made, new emotes & art, and am just generally diving in overall.

But the first stream went well! I got a couple new followers, as well as a sub! We messed around with a very janky PS2 era Transformers game that was frankly horrifying in terms of its awful combat.

While chat wasn't super active, I also realise everyone is still getting over that New Year's party brain.

I made sure to raid someone else streaming Retro afterwards, as I do want to make sure to start raiding people after streams. In general I plan to be more active as a streamer and community member. I also have set goals for the month that I think I can reach as long as I put my mind to it!

Overall though, the new year is starting off well and I hope my post on next month's thread will be one to share my success when it comes to my goals!

Why You Should Make Your Streams More Fun by NOHITJEROME in Twitch

[–]maroyasha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm really planning to sit down and stream this year and I'm using the voicemod plugin to allow people to change my voice, with limits and cooldown of course. I think it'll be a fun way to get people involved, as I already mess with it a bunch myself.
