It started six months ago. I was fresh out of grad school with a Master’s in History, a mountain of debt that gave me nightly anxiety attacks, and a resume that was getting ignored by every museum and university in a three-state radius. I was applying for everything: retail, data entry, barista. I was about two weeks from having to crawl back to my parents’ spare room when I saw the ad. It was discreet, posted on a high-end academic job board I’d forgotten I even had an account for. “Archival Associate. The Foundation. Discretion, precision, and an exceptional capacity for recall are paramount. No formal experience required. Generous compensation.” “Generous” was an understat...

The bike rack industry has come a long way since the days of limited color options and sub-optimal transportation solutions. Brands like Alta Racks has had a significant impact on the industry and forced competitors to up their game. However, Alta Racks continues to take things to the next level with its adjustable and modular designs. The ability to convert a 3-Pack bike rack into a 7-bike capacity bike rack with just a few added parts is ahead of its time. # The Market In the competitive market of bike racks, it’s not just about the product, but the experience. Swagman is another leading brand in the industry, known for its easy-to-use and lightweight racks. Saris has made a name for i...

Commercial pet food emerged in England around 1860 to 1861 when American entrepreneur James Spratt observed Liverpool dock dogs eating hardtack biscuits, sparking an industry now worth over $100 billion globally. Before this innovation, pets ate whatever humans could spare: bread crusts, bones, table scraps, and horse meat, with diets varying dramatically by social class. The shift from home feeding to commercial products occurred remarkably fast, transforming fundamentally within just 25 to 30 years between the 1940s and 1970s, driven primarily by aggressive marketing, wartime disruptions, and urbanization rather than nutritional science. # James Spratt's 1860 Liverpool observation ...

***THIS IS IMPORTANT:*** I did a few changes to chapter 12, after rereading it, I realized that only 16 thousand probes generating 55 thousand terawatts was WAYYYYY too unrealistic, so I did a few small changes to make it more feasible. Size of the swarm: 16 thousand and 52 ---> 105 thousand and 52. Before the change, the probes would need solar panels hundreds of kilometers across, even with future technology, such big panels would be nearly impossible to make in a way that would make mass production possible, given the sheer scale. The change I made makes it significantly more believable. ==================================================== Thanks to [u/Spacepaladin15](https://...

In a world driven by screens, apps, social media, and virtual experiences, it might seem surprising that a simple childhood toy remains a cultural staple. Yet teddy bears continue to be cherished by children and adults alike, thriving despite the rise of digital entertainment. The popularity of teddy bears spans generations, and their appeal has only adapted rather than faded. In this article we explore why teddy bears remain beloved in the digital age. We will look at psychological reasons, cultural resonance, technological integration, changing consumer behavior, and the ways teddy bears have remained relevant in both physical and online communities. Along the way we will share intriguing...

New to helmets not new to bikes. I thought after 30 years of riding bikes I would try a full face helmet. I bought a Shoie modular from Cycle Gear last fall. Sales guy said the fit is correct. I have to say it was the most uncomfortable afternoon I’ve ever spent on a bike. The pain in my jaw, ears and spots on my skull from being packed in there was bad enough but the exhaust droning was the worst part. I wore my usual Earpiece earplugs which normally do the job with no helmet. I have to squeeze my ears into the helmet, so only “in ear” plugs will work. It’s absolutely impossible to adjust or reposition the earplugs once the helmet is on. My bike is a 23 Heritage with a Bassani 2 ...

Hello everyone, I could use a bit of advice. I bought my Clara BW in early January and absolutely love it. I’ve decided to get one for my sister as a birthday gift, her birthday is in April. When I purchased mine, it was still part of the Christmas specials, but I’ve noticed the prices have gone up quite a bit since then. Luckily, I found an online store with a reasonable price and bought one for her. Now, I’ve seen some posts about possible screen issues, and I’m worried that if I wait until April to check it, I might miss the return window if the screen is defective. On the other hand, I’m concerned about the battery: if I switch it on now and then leave it unused for two mont...

300dpi, max 24"x26"/61x91.5cm Digitally drawn in Photoshop, no AI. The 3rd and final composition from my "VF-19 Fire Valkyrie" project. To round it out, I isolated the VF-19 into an "info poster," which includes both *in-universe* background information, as well as *behind-the-scenes* info about the design itself. The final two images are close-ups of the text. Fun fact: I write up the text for these, run it through an online translator into Japanese and then, using a different translator, convert it back into English. I finalize it by correcting proper names that might've gotten distorted. I think this is a fun way of mimicking the, sometimes, slig...

Hi all, I have this 2 stroke tomos that has been standing since 2001. I cleaned out the fuel tank and checked all parts. Cleaned the carburateur. I was suprised it started directly. But when i apply more throttle to drive away it just stalls. Everything looks fine, so what could i look into next? Thanks in advance.

I was so addicted to my phone I couldn’t even **** without scrolling. Then I stopped bringing it to the bathroom for 60 days and broke the entire addiction. I’m 27 now. For years I’d been bringing my phone everywhere. Literally everywhere. The bathroom was the worst of it. I’d sit on the toilet and immediately pull out my phone. Scroll Instagram, Reddit, Twitter, TikTok. What should’ve taken 5 minutes took 30 because I was absorbed in my screen. I couldn’t just sit there. Couldn’t just be alone with my thoughts for 5 minutes. Had to fill every second with digital stimulation. It wasn’t just the bathroom. I’d scroll in bed the moment I woke up. During meals. While walkin...

Hey all — hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. I have a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee (Altitude) and have a crack in the black plastic on the passenger-side mirror housing. The mirror glass, motor, and electronics all work fine — it’s just the outer black plastic cover/cap that’s cracked. I’ve searched Mopar parts sites and dealer catalogs but can’t seem to find a **clear OEM part number** for just the mirror cap (passenger side). Most listings jump straight to the **entire mirror assembly**, which I’m trying to avoid since everything else is intact. A few questions: * Is the **outer mirror cap / housing available separately from Mopar**? * Does anyone know t...

Hey everyone! It's almost February, so here's a list of upcoming releases. I added spoiler tags for any book 2+ in a series, even if it can be read as a standalone. And as always, if I've missed something please let me know! I'll add it to the list. **------** **Feb 2** *{Heart of Royals by May Dawson}* (Royal Ice Dragons #4) Reverse harem - Shapeshifters - Enemies to lovers >>!The king of the ice kingdom terrorized Kaelan, Dare and Thorne while they were growing up. Now as I fight the goddess within me—sometimes an ally, sometimes an enemy—the four of us return to the ice kingdom. To destroy an evil king. To protect a kingdom. To start a new life i...

I asked ChatGPT, Grok, and Deepseek the same question: "Please review all of Doctor Peter Attia's publicly posted advice on diet, excercise, and longevity, and highlight the top key points in each category." (yes, I still say please in my prompts, LOL) I did also ask them to tidy it up into bullet points and remove all fluff and filler words. **DEEPSEEK** **1. Diet & Nutrition** * **Protein First:** Eat 1.6-2.2g of protein per kg of body weight daily to fight muscle loss. Focus on leucine-rich sources (meat, fish, eggs, dairy). * **Carbs are Tools:** Eat carbs around workouts. Avoid refined carbs and sugars. Get carbs from fiber-rich vegetables and low-sugar fru...

When I first entered the manifestation journey, I did everything-affirmations, scripting, visualization, hypnosis, subliminals. And to be honest, I did get results. Some manifestations came fast, others painfully slow. There was no consistency. That inconsistency bothered me. Because if manifestation truly works, why would the same person manifest some things effortlessly and struggle endlessly with others? With my natural tendency to observe patterns, I stopped blaming techniques and asked a deeper question:What is actually happening within me? Like most people, I searched outside-books, teachers, methods. And like most people, I ended up drained, overwhelmed, and confused. So I did the...
