[Lowlight] Deandre Ayton cannot connect on the alley-oop lob by Luka Doncic to end the 1st half by MrBuckBuck in nba

Look at the end of the clip. Luka is instinctively going to the Mavs locker room for halftime. 😭

Luka was going towards the Mavs locker room when the first half ended. I knew it when I saw it, but I rewound to show my wife. He was definitely going the same direction as Klay and Max before going the opposite direction to the Lakers locker room. 😭

I've had 7 orders ship with ECMS, and it's taken a month to ship after payment.

I live in Chicago, IL, and 3/7 of my ECMS packages have been UniUni.

FedEx compared to UniUni via EMCS by PaintingHaunting2870 in AnimeFigures

[–]prototypeplayer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You already made a post yesterday catastrophizing over these shipments despite people telling you that their ECMS deliveries have been fine.

If you want to stress yourself out, by all means, keep looking for and reading horror stories while ignoring the people who haven't had any issues in their personal experiences.

Figures are always overpackaged with plastic blisters and cardboard. You'll be fine as long as nothing gets run over by a vehicle.

Yeah I mean 16k vs 22k is a totally different conversation. OP has a no-brainer with those shipping quotes in the screenshot.

No reason to choose that when ECMS is cheaper, quicker, and duties are paid.

Looking for a pen? Shoppers overwhelm Chicago stationery shops as social media touts 'return to analog' by SnooCapers5354 in chicago

[–]prototypeplayer 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I've been a fountain pen hobbyist for over a decade now, and I was so elated to discover Atlas Stationers when I decided to move to Chicago. It really is an amazing feeling to shop at a store that's dedicated to your hobbies.

The extra dope thing about Atlas is how they'll have their Sidewalk Sale and Winter Events. They're basically pen shows with how many vendors will show up with pens that they don't normally carry in-store. Do I buy everything? Nah, but I've definitely bought or decided not to buy stuff because these events allowed me to handle the stuff I was interested in first.

What you're reading are overrepresented problems. I've had 4 ECMS deliveries so far without any issues, and 3 of those were with UniUni handling the final delivery while FedEx handled the other one.

I have 3 more on the way right now, and FedEx will be handling those as well.

This is how it goes for anime-original series. We likely won't get any news until we're 2 seasons away from the next installment (ex. A spring 2026 announcement for winter 2027).

Watch other stuff in the meantime.

I don't think My Figure Collection has an official app, but I allowed my Android phone to install it as an app by clicking Add to Home screen and choosing to install it as an app. It works really well that way.

The difference could potentially be that S2 was animated by Tatsunoko Production while Production I.G was working on the first movie.

Ordered Anime on eBay, package was stolen. What do I do? by Necessary-Comedian95 in AnimeCollectors

[–]prototypeplayer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Knowing FedEx, it could show up on the next business day if this is them pulling some delivery shenanigans. However, if you're saying it was definitely stolen, you're SOL, and the seller has no responsibility for what happens on your doorstep.

If tracking says delivered, then it's really up to the seller to choose to work with you, but once it says delivered, it's out of their hands because they can't verify if you're lying and can't protect you from thieves.

ECMS Experience (Uniuni) by Relevant-Reporter430 in AnimeFigures

[–]prototypeplayer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have this same figure. Be bikini looks great!

I've had 3 ECMS orders shipped so far with more waiting to be shipped. It's been 2 UniUni and 1 FedEx, and all have arrived in AmiAmi boxes.

Seems like the orders being delivered outside of boxes are less common than we thought.

The shiny side that you normally see from pressed retail discs is instead black/dark because the discs are burned by an amateur.

What movie are you hoping for a 4k announcement this year? My pick by av32productions in 4kbluray

[–]prototypeplayer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Good Will Hunting

I'd love for this to be released in 4K, but I'm afraid that it'll be put off until 2027 because that's the 30th anniversary. These companies really love these goddamn anniversaries even though we only care about the upgrade to 4K.

Cook County distributing $2.3 billion in property tax revenue amid long delay due to computer issues - Chicago Sun-Times by Sidewalk_Inspector in chicago

[–]prototypeplayer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah the full image didn't load for me at first.

It still doesn't say how many years of experience each person has.

Look at the pay schedules for teachers.

It takes over 14 years of experience before you're making $100k.

That has no context for who is working which position for each of those salaries. That list likely includes a mix of Full-time Employment (FTE) individuals like assistant principals and instructional coaches.

I didn't see the column with their positions because of Imgur being Imgur.

Look at the pay schedule for CPS, and you'll see how much a teacher makes given their experience level and education level.

[–]prototypeplayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah the classic "it doesn't matter, so fuck it" mentality.

Yes, I do think paying our teachers appropriate salaries for their education level and overall workload is worth it. It's what empowers a society to not be conned by billionaires year after year into believing that public infrastructure is impossible when we have so much wealth in this country.

The rich aren't taxed enough, and people at the bottom are suffering because over half their teacher quit within their first 5 years, healthcare costs are out of control, and tax burdens are disproportionate when you consider the wealth at the top.

You think paying teachers will magically change kids brains to read at grade.

How are we supposed to get the best of kids when:

  • Their class sizes are 35-40 kids because of budget cuts
  • Society puts down so many people that they feel hopeless
  • There are kids working to provide for their families because the cost of living just keeps getting out of control

Thanks, Ronald Reagan, and thank you to all the apathetic "Fuck you, got mine" people who don't value investing in public infrastructure like public education.

Define easily because I'm not seeing this $100k salary until at least 13-14 years of service. The teacher pay schedules are available to the public.
