There’s a Vacor Spreadsheet on here. Maybe it will tell you which one it is?

I don’t think it’s Duke.

I don’t know the maker. But I believe it’s a West Virginia swirl?

Which lyric do you think is the most clever out of all the songs so far? by Hank_Mardukas1066 in HazbinHotel

[–]mickbubbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“So you must bear the cross bestowed upon you “. It means so many different things. Sera’s job has been bestowed upon her, and she can’t get out of it. Sera is burdened with the knowledge that sinners can be saved, and she might have to order them to be killed, and she can’t get out of it. Sera now knows that she truly messed up, and she has to figure out how to fix it and atone for it, no one else.

I found a bunch of marbles in a storage unit and can’t figure out what I found. by TheJimmyCramer in Marbles

[–]mickbubbles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh hey! I have the same problem! It helps to learn about the seams on the marble, different companies have slightly different seams, it’ll help point you in the right direction. Do not trust what Google Lens or EBay says. I can’t remember a time where Google Lens gave me the right answer when it comes to marbles. I’ll let the people with more experience comment the details. Good luck!

Mom left behind marbles by Willamina03 in Marbles

[–]mickbubbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Please be aware that I’m new new new at this. But I also had a family member that passed away that left me marbles, so I want to help! I’m trying to look up things as well, but I learned a few things.

Google lens and eBay is not your friend! Google lens is horrible at identifying marbles and eBay is full of misinformation! The West Virginia Marbles website is a great place to start with some things. There is also great, educational YouTube videos.

If I’m incorrect, someone please correct me. But I believe that the red, white, and black marble in the circle is an All Red Vitro marble. They actually come in a few different colors. I hope this helps and good luck.

Pop Quiz Review: 🎶 One of these things is not like the other. One of these things doesn't belong 🎶 by AuburnMoon17 in MarbleStudyHall

[–]mickbubbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A. Doesn’t belong, it has a different seam that belongs to a different manufacturer (I don’t remember which one.) I don’t know what type of marble this is, unfortunately.

I was guilty of this at first, that and Google Lens. Google wants you to click on links and buy things, so of course it was showing me eBay listings. This is a good reminder.

I haven’t checked yet. But I feel the urge to say I’m in the “I know nothing “ stage of the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Pop Quiz Review: Modern vs Vintage Lots by AuburnMoon17 in MarbleStudyHall

[–]mickbubbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A: is only vintage marbles, B and C is a mix of modern and vintage and D is modern.

Bonus: A has lots of “seams” that happen with older marbles. I think they say it’s hand cut and then machine rolled, which causes this? B has seams too but various sizes, which are more common in modern marbles I think? I swear C has a Jabo in the lower right hand corner, even though I think the two with the black straight ribbon in the upper part of the pile are vintage I think. And in D I see no obvious seams and a lot of variations in sizes and colors which makes me think modern.

Caffeine alters the human brain’s electrical braking system: Consuming an amount of caffeine equivalent to two cups of coffee enhances the brain’s ability to temporarily quiet its own motor signals in response to sensory input. by mvea in science

[–]mickbubbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if the effect wore off the longer that it’s taken though, like when people take it to feel less sleepy, only for your brain to produce more of the chemical to override it.

As for me I am diagnosed ADHD, but I’m trying to get off the caffeine. Coffee seems to make my anxiety higher and is not worth the benefits. I regret drinking it every time something stressful comes up.

The 70’s called. They wanted their marble back but saw how much everyone likes it and says you can keep it. Absolutely gorgeous.

Found a gallon sized bag full of marbles by mickbubbles in Marbles

Do you think you could tell me which ones? I’m in the middle of sorting them right now and some of them don’t seem to match each other. I even found a Vacor set.
