James Gomes. I like to think and learn. I'm interested in economics, philosophy, exercise/fitness, running, and literature among other topics.

Does anyone have strong opinions about teaching kids religion/s?

If so, let's chat!

My initial ideas are here, https://t.co/0uaJObqhYa

[PSAcard @PSAcard]

The most common flaw that keeps this card from earning a PSA 10 grade? Print defects on the front surface.

To offer some insight direct from the PSA Grading Room: One aspect that sets the 1980 Topps Rickey Henderson card apart from almost all other cards in the set is the large area of black surface on the front of the card, thanks to the shadow cast inside the dugout in the background of the image.

As was the case with many vintage sets with darker areas on the surface, this created a higher likelihood for white, snowy-looking print dots or yellow "fish eye" defects to show up as heavily visible on this portion of the surface, affecting the overall eye appeal of the card.

Finding copies with good centering, clean edges and sharp corners is not as difficult with this card as it is to find an example without noticeable print defects on the front.

We've also seen a noticeably larger volume of this card come to PSA since 2020 - especially as more collectors dug into their older collections - which further shrinks the overall Gem Rate.

I finished season 1 of #TheGoodPlace today! I really like it. Then I listened to our podcast episode of the pilot. I liked that too.

Are you interested in joining me for a Pilots and Petards episode?

@John73014818 @reviews_running What a recommendation! Is it fiction? I can't tell for sure by searching the book. I'm interested.

@rajivatbarnard @mathijs1987j @PredictIt Biden & team had been hiding what was exposed last night. I was watching the betting markets during the debate.

For the previous few months, I assumed the Dems knew better than I did. Now I'm not sure.

[Jimbo @Jimbostank]

@reviews_running @buymeacoffee I would love to have you both on my podcast to talk about your experience reading and reviewing all these books. If either or both of you are interested, can you please message or email me? Thank you for your time. [email protected]

@kailuowang Would you be interested in discussing Sapolsky, Determined, and free will with me? I saw your review and discussion of Determined on Goodreads. Here is a response I made on my blog, https://t.co/1Yr5bNVOW6
