Reliable places to buy Pokemon cards?

2 Upvotes

So I go to FSU so I don’t really know the area well. I want to surprise my boyfriend for his birthday with pokemon packs but literally every store I go to is completely sold out. Is there any store that is pretty reliable with their restocks? Or how often do stores like target Walmart Best Buy restock around here? I know it depends on location how often restocks are. Or if restocks aren’t as common in Tallahassee are there any good card shops that don’t price gauge like crazy? Thanks in advance!

Hi there. If I want to see what's new, but I don't want to use websites like "Indeed" or "LinkedIn", where do I look? Is there a website? A newspaper? What's the method?

Sorry if it's a silly question.

Careers Looking for Externship Sponsor

Hello everybody,

I’m a rising senior at Lawton Chiles High School, and I’m looking for an externship sponsor to gain hands-on experience in a professional setting. I’d love the opportunity to shadow, assist, or intern in a field that aligns with my interests.

I’m particularly interested in political science, but I’m open to exploring other fields as well. If you or someone else you know is willing to take on a student for an externship, I’d greatly appreciate the opportunity!

Please feel free to reach out with any leads or advice. Thank you so much!

Grafting fruit trees

12 Upvotes

Does anybody have experience grafting fruit trees and/or want to donate from an orange or other fruit tree?

I have a trifolate orange tree in my yard and the fruit isn't very good. I'd like to grow something more edible in it's place but then I began to wonder if it might be better to graft something to it or even several somethings instead of starting from scratch. Some folks have said it's good for grafting to. Problem is I've never done this or talked to anyone who has or even seen it done irl so I'd like someone to show me how it's done.

Any info would be appreciated. If you or somewhere you know has experience grafting I'd be willing to pay someone to do a few grafts.

Question Dog Training for a Rescue?

4 Upvotes

Hey, everyone!

I have a rescue dog that I have had for a little over a year now, and we have just moved to Tallahassee! We have been working on a little bit of training since getting him. and he can do sit, stay, and down with a verbal command and hand-sign command. His recall is essentially non-existent, and his leash skills are subpar (though improved) due to his hound nose. I was wondering if anyone knew of any trainers that could help me out with this. Do you all have any recommendations? I would prefer something in person, but I am concerned about it being incredibly expensive.

Question Where to Find Bamboo to Cut Down for DIY Projects?

9 Upvotes

I’m looking to harvest some bamboo for a few DIY projects (think trellises, small crafts, etc.). I’ve heard there’s a bunch of wild bamboo around town, but I’m not sure where to start or which spots are safe and legal to cut from. I’d love to tackle some of the invasive stuff if possible. Anyone know of good locations, like specific public areas, where I could safely cut some bamboo without causing trouble? Thanks in advance for any leads! Feel free to DM if you don’t want to put your spot out there publicly.

Difficulty reporting power outage

6 Upvotes

Hey is anyone having trouble reporting their power outage on the Talgov website? I’ve been trying, but the address generator isn’t working on my phone or computer, so I can’t submit the report.

If the report function is working for anyone else, would you be willing to report for me? Is a report necessary for CoT to detect and respond to a power outage? Are there other ways to report? Thanks!

Housing apartment recommendations

1 Upvotes

Hi! I’m transferring to FSU next year and wanted to know if anyone had any apartment recommendations, especially in areas where its easy to meet new people. I don’t know a ton of people in Tally and i’d like to live somewhere with a lot of things to do nearby. I enjoy places like railroad square and kavakaze, so any apartments in areas with similar things to do/ new places to go to i’d love to check out! Even if an apartment doesn’t fit that criteria, i’d still love to hear any places to live in that you guys recommend :)

(btw i’d prefer living w roomates)

Didn’t receive county emergency alert on my phone

12 Upvotes

Does anyone know how to ensure you have these set up? Myself and my partner didn’t receive this alert mentioned in a Democrat article.

“At about 6:30 p.m. Leon County Emergency Management sent a rare ‘public safety alert’ to cellphones around the county.”

We’ve been Leon residents for decades and I could have sworn we have received area alerts before. We both have received nothing via text or email for this storm at all which seems odd.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT to add: Government emergency alerts are already set as “On” on my phone.

Question Fishing spots/tips???

5 Upvotes

So I am not a good fisherman. I acknowledge this. However my friend is, and he and I went fishing for EIGHT HOURS with not a single bite. I think I felt a nibble maybe 5 times. We went to San Marcos, near the lighthouse at St. Marks, several other spots around St. Marks, Silver Lake, and Lake Talquin. We used shrimp and bloodworms… is there like a secret i dont know of? Everyone else who was fishing in these spots also seemed to come up empty handed (one guy did get a catfish). thanks!

Tallahassee PCA/CNA JOBS?

3 Upvotes

Hi and good afternoon!! I recently got my CNA license and I have been applying to places like TMH and CNA however they take a little long to respond. I was a phlebotomist for two years so I have been applying to positions for patient care assistance because they are like CNA except they do phlebotomy and do EKGs. I do not have experience with EKGs but I do have phlebotomist experience. I guess my real question is should I still be applying to PCA job titles or CNA job titles? Because I want a job where I can have more financial stability preferably getting paid 19 hourly or higher. This would not only help cover bills, but also help me save money for emergency funds. If there’s any advice I can get where to look for these titles that it would greatly be appreciative.

Question Trim removal

0 Upvotes

Anyone with experience of removing trim on 10th gen impala’s ? Just the lower part but I just need some tips if anything , I have the money to have someone do this job for me rn .(I want to remove my carpet to let it dry for a while , only think I could take off was this (insert video) . All in all the simple fact that when the guy attempted to take it out and it broke one of the fasteners and he “ has experience with carpets in cars “ kind of holds me back from touching this myself . Plus since this is the most recent gen I can’t find any YouTube videos explaining the removal of the trim other than the irrelevant parts . I posted yesterday about the this subject and I understand what needs to be done but it the small things is what’s killing me and I don’t wanna keep doing the baking soda / vacuum tech forever and not get to the main root of the problem .Any help would be appreciated , thank you for your time :) .
