\[copy of the first 6 images' text below\] **Long Lost Colony Reaches Record Population** Last night, after the successful re-contact with the lost isolated colony of Hasila’s Clear Ark, at NGC-3726 (local name Petitiris Galaxy) 46mly away, the total count of base organic humans has surpassed the mark of 20 trillion people, spread across over a million systems.  And this amazing new achievement for humanity comes with a touching story to tell. ^(Picture of the long lost planet Neverthorn, taken by the crew of Hasila’s Hope) It was by the genesis time 20:46 gmt of 17-01-8026 that the flotilla nicknamed Hasila’s Hope had transmitted its confirmation of contact and immediate ...

*We are currently on a crisis; a new artist crisis specifically.* Let's go back to the 2000-2010s, where music could be easily consumed regardless of how long the track sounded. All that was needed is hearing about a musician, then getting interested in that one musician, and ultimately listening to them, making yourself a fan of that young artist. Entering 2015, concept albums with an unique plot were still being created, but there was something off once 2016 entered. Albums became shorter and shorter, with some of the most popular artists creating shorter projects with less songs. While it could be argued this is just because the artists are becoming lazier, less motivated or t...

Found these at one of the local thrift stores today, they are hand blown. Not sure if you can see the pontil mark or not. I believe they are black Amethyst glass. I paid less than $10 for both, hoping I got a good deal on them.

Hi all! Is there a group in Portland that accepts professional clothing needed for work or interviews? I'd like to give shoes, dress shirts, business casual skirts and pants, etc to communities that need it most. I am trying to avoid thrift stores that are known for higher prices on donated items. Any recommendations?

hi so I am a 25 year old who feels ftm. but i am unsure and am struggling to navigate my feelings. i cant afford a therapist so I wanted insight from other non binary or trans people. as a young child to be honest i was girly and didnt mind. I dressed up as princesses and such. as i got into middle school years i became more of a tomboy. my favorite characters were all male. i liked Boy things. nothing too unusual for a awkward little middle schooler. But I do remember always having my long hair up in a pony tail because I didnt like it. later as i grew into a freshmen-sophomore high schooler i still had my hair up daily. At this point is when I always felt different for a while. I am not s...

I've been in community college for a couple of years now and I'm finally about to get my Associate's degree. One of my last classes requires an Internship signed up for by February 9th, or sooner. I haven't set it up very well, but I do have a LinkedIn, and some sample pieces under my belt that I can share with you all. With that said, I'm not sure at all where to start? Some people have recommended I call up random numbers in a phone book. Others have suggested communities on Facebook, where I also intend on posting. Naturally, I would prefer a paid position, but if I have to work without it then I'm willing. I need 200 hours of work from an agency or company. ...

Hi, I am looking to start learning bass, but I've had back issues before. The ones I've held in the stores near me were a bit too heavy for me (and also I want 4 string, which only gave me like 2 basses to try at each store anyways; I don't have guitar experience or anything like that to want a 5 string at this time). At first I went through the standard beginner short person phase of thinking I should do a short scale/travel/u-bass, but a lot of what is drawing me to bass seems to be lower than the default tuning, so I think my safest bet would be 34" after all? My main bass inspo is the Hades game soundtrack; there's a really cool effect in the game where the gam...

I've been writing a guide book of sorts to help me keep ideas flowing when faced with writers block, and in it I just got to the point of describing my magic system. I thought I'd come and ask for some outside advice/feedback to see if it makes sense to other people. For some addition context, this guide book is written from the perspective of someone who lives in the world. Additionally, things that are in italics are things that have pages in the guide going into greater detail about them, and what are in brackets (only one thing I think) are meant more as a direct address to the reader. **Mana** The source of fuel for magic that is produced in the soul. Once produced, it is th...

Thanks again for the responses on part 2. As there was some misunderstanding about the time, i took this brevet. We started at 29.05.2025 Day 2 (336km|1000km) (3|4) https://preview.redd.it/uen7a0zgtydg1.jpg?width=1536&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e834e32be510e20d2a1db5431982056db2a48fb9 I woke up feeling super refreshed and I jumped almost into my dress. Coffee, cereal, some fruit and onto the bike. It was 08:00 when I got into the saddle but I knew that I’d rather sleep longer and ride faster. Sleep deprivation is a huge performance killer for me. The day started with a 80km climb with increasing gradient towards  Wasserkuppe, a very famous hill that is known f...

Throwaway because my main account has my usual handle and I don't want to risk it. Hi reddit. I don't usually post but i need to vent about this and have no one I can talk to. So I (22f) am married to my husband (26nb). (My husband uses he/they and accepts the title of husband but is nonbinary.) Our marriage is fine enough I suppose. We bonded over having the similar family trauma and the same mental and emotional disorders so, while we fight a lot and sound like the most miserable toxic couple ever, we make it work through mutual understanding. We got married mid last year, but chose to ​hold off on the big dress and cake and venue and everything until we could afford it. Inste...

Hey everyone! As promised, here is my late 90s American Girl (PC) trunk and haul! I got my Samantha in around 1993 or 1994, and I got my Girl of Today Lori (Just Like you #12, I believe) when they first came out in 1995. I liked outfits from all of the first few girls, except for Kirsten. So I don't have any of her stuff. But I have some Molly/Addy/Felicity/and of course Samantha. I also have plenty of OG Girl of Today stuff. I included the PC Doll Hospital box/gown/balloon/hospital bracelet. I have a brand new set of PC Samantha's Accessories (hat/purse/brooch/coin/hanky) comparing it to the original hat which is RAGGED. I have an author autographed Samantha's Birthday book...

any suggestions to add from sideboard would also be appreciated

I feel like there is very good chance that this year’s Best Actor frontrunner, Timothy Chalamet may lose to Leonardo DiCaprio in an upset for many reasons. 1. One Battle After Another is not only expected to win Best Picture, but also win Best Director for Paul Thomas Anderson and Best Adapted Screenplay. If a film can win Best Director and Best Screenplay (Typically they only need one to win Best Picture) then that means the movie is REALLY well liked by the Academy, and tends to overperform in other nominated categories. Everything, Everywhere, All At Once won in both of these categories and Jamie Lee Curtis upset in the Best Supporting Actress category. Last year, Anora won in both ca...

My LO is 5 months old. Initially, my partner and I were going to wait until 6mo to introduce purées but LO has shown us many signs of wanting to start eating solids, including strong and independent head control. We’re going to start with single ingredient purees. In a perfect world I’d want to blend them myself, but I’d honestly would rather purchase, given I work 14 hour days & some weekends. That being said, I want to commit to a brand that is healthy, safe and trustworthy. I just saw another post on a subreddit called, /whatisit and there was a huge chunk of mold in the baby’s food, so that was less than reassuring for Gerber brand lmao. Can anyone give us some good re...

When it comes to cooking, salt is often our go-to flavor enhancer. It can elevate a dish from bland to brilliant with just a sprinkle. However, as we become more health-conscious and aware of the effects of excessive sodium on our bodies, many of us are seeking ways to reduce our salt intake without sacrificing taste. The good news is that we can create vibrant, flavorful meals with less salt by employing a few clever techniques and flavor-enhancing alternatives. Let’s embark on a culinary journey to discover how we can cook with less salt while still tantalizing our taste buds. https://preview.redd.it/phnv3rkkqydg1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c71cbf21d...

A thread about Hobby Lobby got me thinking. Unfortunately Hobby Lobby is one of the few sources of in-person fabric left, at least in my area it has a better selection than Michael's. But a lot of us don't want to shop there and why should we buy so much new stuff anyway? So here's some ideas for crafters. Quilting and fabric crafts used to be a way to use up old clothes and scraps. People didn't buy pre-made kits, they created their designs from what they had. Synthetic batting is worth it because it makes quilts machine washable, but you could re-use synthetic blankets as batting. Folks get a yarn winder and unravel sweaters and such to re-use expensive yarn. "Ou...
