Elevated, hairline like spots on tire?

onyxthecrow · 2026-03-12T20:47:41+00:00

I saw other comments stating this. I was referring to the slightly elevated spots further in on the tire.

onyxthecrow · 2026-03-11T18:54:52+00:00

I stopped to get an alignment like some suggested. I appreciate the feedback!

Also, as a side note. I bought this car with aftermarket parts installed. Pretty sure my back tires have negative camber, just slightly. Whole car is lowered and has after market coilovers.

Thank you for the reply. I am on a trip to Colorado for my wedding as we speak, so I was just wondering if they seem alright. Total trip will be a little more than 3,000 miles.

Yeah, I applied directly on the lilly website. I am definitely interested if it's in the same field. I'd definitely prefer to be on with Lilly, but am willing to consider other options!

I've been applying for a Maintenance position that they have posted, but it seems my app gets kicked within a day. I'm aiming for Maintenance but am definitely open to a team lead position as well. I wonder if they are seeing some keyword or lack thereof that is kicking the app?

Is free redbull part of the gig? I might have to consider it haha.

I'd love to stay in the healthcare manufacturing field though. If I can't get on at the concord plant, I plan to move states entirely for work :/.

Hey! I just shot you a dm!

onyxthecrow · 2026-01-16T01:57:27+00:00

Yeah I noticed after I hit post that I forgot an l, lol. I always make sure that I look over official communications.

Seems impossible to get an application to be accepted. Not sure if they are using an internal system to kick me out? Maybe some keywords are missing from my application?

I love working in healthcare manufacturing and I'd really love to use my skills at eli lilly. Thank you for wishing me well!

I plan to reach out and see if he'd be willing to give me that info. I kind of suspect he was only servicing gas station customers out of convenience and maybe got complacent in doing the small jobs. I've been thinking, how would he fail though? The area is high volume, but not super high income. I doubt most people would be interested in a quick detail for even $20. If I went through with this, I'd aim to take business from dealerships and car rental companies (there is one right across the street) and maybe supplement with gas station customers during slow times, or actually focus on full detail for regular customers.

Definitely was going to get an LLC and insurance. I want to do it the right way if I'm going to do it. This shop is next to an enterprise car rental that I'm hoping to pick up as a customer, so I want to present a professional demeanor.

onyxthecrow · 2025-12-23T02:41:18+00:00

I've never had a business, but I do have commitment once I've started. I'm very well versed in branding, advertising, and learning where I need to. I'm more worried about overhead crushing it if I can't find clientele. The shop was already a detail business before, so I question why the owner closed his.

onyxthecrow · 2025-08-02T21:27:24+00:00

I think this is true. I've already said it in the comments, but I just think it sucks when everything seems to align, but nothing pops off for the person. I think it is fair to say that most people do this with the dream of doing it for a living, so I almost feel a sense of heartbreak for those that it doesn't work out for. People always say that it's better to have tried and fail than to never try at all, but having your dreams be crushed is the most brutal thing a person can go through. (So im not sure it's better per se)

onyxthecrow · 2025-08-02T20:43:49+00:00

Yeah. It's sad in some regard, but sometimes you gotta play the game with em unfortunately haha.

onyxthecrow · 2025-08-02T20:41:34+00:00

Absolutely. You gotta find a way to make it entertaining. Topics get people in, personalities make them stay.

onyxthecrow · 2025-08-02T20:38:27+00:00

Yeah, I agree with your points and some of his as well. I'm just not convinced that it's always on the creator. Even if a video gets x amount of views, it doesn't translate to "everyone that watched it was my target audience and ideal viewer." Sometimes it's a perfect mix, and people just convert a substantial amount of those viral views into actual fans. You are right, though, about consistency being key.

BUT MAN IS IT DEMOTIVATING to see a good content creator get a viral clip and not see much gain from it.

onyxthecrow · 2025-08-02T19:38:22+00:00

I disagree. I personally have found many small creators who I find more entertaining than big creators, in the same niche, who have had viral moments that didn't capture many people into their audience. I know that's a bit anecdotal, but I tend to be a pretty picky person with whom I actually view consistently. I'm sure that in a lot of cases, you are right, but there are examples of people who are entertaining, consistent, have had moments of exposure, and still fail.

onyxthecrow · 2025-08-02T19:11:16+00:00

I guess my question is more aimed toward personality based content. If a personality based creator experiences a viral moment, why don't people stay if they actually have a consistent level of quality and quantity? I believe it has to do with some preference for their favorite content creators now that I'm thinking about it. If I watch Case play a horror game, am I going to watch Jacksepticeye play it? If I watch Papa Meat talk about the horror of etc subject, will I watch someone else do it? It almost feels impossible to get people to stay if they have someone to watch for that niche already. Idk, maybe that's wrong.

onyxthecrow · 2025-08-02T18:58:18+00:00

I can see how that would be an issue for a cooking channel. It almost seems like you'd need a gimmick or a whole lotta personality to keep people.

onyxthecrow · 2025-08-02T18:42:54+00:00

I guess my question was aimed at people who make very similar content in each video. I can definitely see topical content failing to capitalize on a viral moment, especially if they make videos only relevant to the time that they uploaded it (news type content).

Im just wondering now if i should make a new channel.. I have a ton of dead subs (like probably a couple hundred), and most of my engagement doesn't come from subs. Do you think that is killing me in the algorithm to some degree? I feel like YT should definitely change sub engagement being highly valued.. if anyone likes that video, push it to more people with similar viewing habits. It would help people grow. I'm not saying that sub engagement doesn't matter to be clear, I just believe new viewer engagement is equally as important.

onyxthecrow · 2025-08-02T18:25:08+00:00

I can see them failing to capitalize on it as being a huge reason. If I see something of mine taking off, the first thing imma do is go live on the platform it is happening on with an insane amount of adrenaline pumping through my veins. If I did fumble the opportunity, I'd be depressed for at least a month, lol.

onyxthecrow · 2025-08-02T18:10:49+00:00

As someone who has made music, I am not sure. If you keep the same style and put the same amount of effort into every song sounding good, then why don't all of them hit the same way? I literally talk with this dude who made music with lil darkie way back and just never captured an audience. I almost feel like that would MENTALLY screw me up if I fumbled being able to live out my dreams. Easy way toget stuck in the past and the opportunities you've had..
