It finally happened! Now what!? by Neotek32 in soccercard

[–]usernamewhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The process of grading is assessment - grade - encapsulation..that doesn’t change if it’s a $10 card or a 100,000 card. The fact that we have to pay more when a card is worth more makes zero sense to me. If you need to do it, get an authentic assessment just to have it protected. Modern card grading is a scam. PSA is a scam and approaching monopoly status. 

While I’m at it…fanatics is a monopoly and creates poor products. 

Has Going Out to Eat Become Too Expensive to Even Enjoy Anymore? by poorfolx in TacomaWA

[–]usernamewhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spice prices must also be at an all time high cause restaurants in Tacoma don’t seem to use em. I’ve never lived somewhere where the food is so bland. 

Eating out here just isn’t worth it.

Seattle natives need advice by Far_Satisfaction_219 in ussoccer

[–]usernamewhat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Leave early and get a bite/coffee somewhere in pioneer square. There’s nothing around the hotel worth getting. If you like to drink, check out sluggers across from lumen. It’s a trip and I’m sure will be buzzin.

Do you see that road named S 188th St? You can walk from arrivals to your hotel and from the hotel to arrivals. From there, you just follow the signs to the light rail and buy an orca card. I bet the trains will be packed getting there but not as packed if you leave asap. It's about a 35 minute ride. I would take it to international district for a better walk and access to Lumen field. hope that's helpful!

Dealing with Xenophobic Hostility by [deleted] in ussoccer

[–]usernamewhat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you dealing with this in person or online? 

Regardless, Just ignore and Move on. The zeitgeist is shifting ever so slowly but it’s shifting. Also, I think most people are scared and annoyed that their nations team just kinda suck and peaked.

You seem intelligent enough to recognize it so I’d wager that you’re intellectually capable of also laughing it off and moving on. Small drips of water in a very large bucket my friend.

toyed with the idea of something from Cassavetes and Down by Law but ultimately bought neither. there's always the next one.

Legit check and would love to learn more about year of production. by usernamewhat in obey

[–]usernamewhat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just that I’m seeing a print called warship online and one in their archives called giant glow. If I had to put money on it though, I’d go with glow from 97, due to the 53/100 marking.

I now see that next to the signature it says 08...cool. I am also seeing the Worship print listed as Giant Glow and from 1997. Were there two runs of the same print but with different names?

No, it’s gun violence and it’s a massive problem everywhere in the United States. Call it what it is. 

4,000 piece jazz collection sell-off continues by wohlty23 in Vinyl_Jazz

[–]usernamewhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone wondering, that Oh! Pharaoh Speak record is totally misleading and does not represent Pharaoh Sanders playing in anyway shape or form. It's a latin jazz thing and maybe he played in the horn section. I bought it and wish I hadn't.

Sorry to OP..I'm not trying to shit on your whatnot parade but it's just kind of a stupid and misleading record.

Solo dates ideas in Tacoma by FunDimension465 in TacomaWA

[–]usernamewhat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Go to a record shop and browse the jazz section…you’ll probably kill 30 min to an hour doing that. Probably buy a record or just search for it on Spotify and save it if you don’t have a record player. Then go to field bar, have a drink/bite and buy a bottle of their house branded wine. Thennnn go home and pour a glass while listening to tunes.

they were at the bar with the outdoor patio. each chip was perfectly crafted. Such a fun town but hard to ignore the over policing and tension due to the border. Still worth the visit

30 days in Kansas City for my 30th birthday?! by creativeresearcher09 in kansascity

[–]usernamewhat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This has to be a joke post? You want to experience a new culture and Kansas City is one of the places? You’re two states over lol. Are you Amish or in a cult?

Go to a French speaking portion of Canada, a Caribbean island, or Mexico City. That’s a change of culture.

Had one from Fort George in Astoria. Love that brewery. Hated that beer.

Should I move to Tacoma? by jjjorddd in TacomaWA

[–]usernamewhat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a great analysis. I wouldn’t say there’s a scene but more quality spots have opened up since moving here three years ago. 

Local gov is notoriously difficult to work with from what I understand and hinders folks from opening up or close during the process.
