So I'm interested in collecting WWII Model figurines.
What would be the best way of getting them online? Credible sellers/Best quality.
Thanks.

A Huragok and a SPARTAN-II, completely by accident, take the Covenant heavy corvette Ardent Prayer for a universe-hopping joyride. Perhaps some good can come of this? And what kind of idiot names their planet Sera? The first arc in what I hope to be a series of fics, all orbiting around Jorge-052, a Huragok named Bobs Occasionally and the Ardent Prayer.

There so few Huragok fics I thought I could try sharing this in case others would like it

I finally got together the courage to apply for membership on the SCP website. I'm really excited to try my hand at the real thing instead of crappy fanfiction.

But now I feel stupid for being nervous because you don't actually have to "apply", it's just a cover to make sure you read the rules and shit first.

Makes me feel dumb for working so hard on an application message.

Anyone know a good way to learn how to read sheet music for electric guitar? I'm wanting to learn didn't know if there was a good YouTube video or something to watch

If you find a good teacher you can learn a lot from them, regardless of your current skill level. I've played for 14 years and only just started lessons for the first time in my life, and it's definitely changed the way I look at the instrument.

But to answer your question, the best way to learn is to do it. Depending on what kind of music you want to play, sheet music can be easy or completely impossible to find. If you don't know how to read the staff, musictheory.net has good tutorials on reading the staff, among other things.

Do you know all the notes on the fretboard? It helps if you do already know them, but it's not a common thing among guitar players (I don't unless I can have a second to think about it). It also helps to know key signatures since it shows you what notes 'generally' will be used throughout the piece.

Start with easy songs, it's boring as fuck but it's better than trying a piece that is technically 'at your level' and taking weeks to decipher in the sheet music format.

Lol spend money and hours every week with some greasy ass stoner or old man or woman for guitar lessons? Wow I'm so excited
I would rather hang myself with a guitar strings then have some guy charge me 200 bucks an hour just to play Mary had a Little lamb over and over.

Yeah I've actually done just fine by watching YouTube videos and playing consistently.
The only think a instructor is going to do is have me play scales and over charge me.
It's probably as stupid as as a artist going to art school to learn how to paint and draw. It's a hands on skill, you can only learn and improve by physically doing the task.
A few free videos on youtube helped with the technical stuff like tuning and reading notes and then most song covers have a link to the sheet music so I can play them myself.

I'm not sure if you're joking (and your area might suck) but like a local musicans shop can lilely hook you up with a reputable and somewhat proffesional tutor.

Ahoi ladies and gents, I have a quick question. I've considered getting myself hermit crabs and wondered if a aquarium sized 60cmx30cmx30m would be large enough to keep some in there in the first place, and if so, how many. Also, as those little fellas, even the land-dweeling ones, need to submerge themselves from time to time, do any of you have any tips for creating a little "pond" or lagoon in said tank? I don't really want to use dishes that much, I'm kind of afraid of the little guys drowning in thee because they couldn't climb out anymore. I was thinking about something like shown in the pic, but I'm also worried about the constantly wet substrate starting to get moldy after a while. Any tips for a proper tank set up would be very much appreciated.
