Self-collected quartz crystal with a very mobile enhydro bubble in a….. barite inclusion?! How wild is that?! Found in King County, Washington, USA summer of 2022.

Record No.: 1282
Inclusion formula: Al2O3
Inclusion type (Macro/Micro/Nano): Micro
Inclusion type (Exogenous/Indigenous): Indigenous
Inclusion classification: Oxide
Inclusion composition in weight %: No data
Sample: Steel
Steel composition in weight %: No data
Note: Inclusion with well developed facet planes and a three-dimensional character are classified as faceted inclusions (Fig. 1). They are also numerously found in industrial samples. Their size ranges from a few ìm to few tens µm. In the work of Dekkers, faceted inclusions are further classified as octahedral (Fig. 1 (a)) or non-octahedral (Fig. 1 (b)). The reason is the belief that corundum, which cannot develop an octahedral habit, is not the only Al2O3 phase present in liquid steel. Other Al2O3 polymorphs could explain the presence of octahedral inclusions.
The facets appear in the crystal habit as a result of slower growth rate, and the subsequent ability of the crystal to arrange the incoming growth units in the configuration that minimises the surface energy. Such growth conditions are obtained at lower supersaturation degree. From that point of view, faceted inclusions cannot be formed during cooling. Also, the size of the polygonal inclusions was found to be independent on the cooling rate of the Fe. As a result of different supersaturation degrees during the growth of the polyhedral crystal, flat, concave or hopper faces (Fig. 1 (c)) on the octahedral inclusions were observed.
Large faceted inclusions can also result from the sintering and densification processes of aggregates. Overgrowth of plate-like inclusions or dendrites was occasionally observed on small octahedral inclusions.

Hey, so when you’ve purchased a Gold Pkg ticket, how many “free” autographs are included?? I know J2 and sometimes M are included, but is it normally just a couple of them or is it every actor that they are advertising?? If I need to purchase other auto tickets it’d be nice to know ahead of time!!
Hi there
If you go to the convention page for your con and check under the Gold ticket inclusions - it will tell you who. It's usually most guests, but it can change, and the page for your con will tell you for sure.
I was tagged by @adventuresofmeghatron! Thank you!
I know it's late but I'm tagging @possumteeths and @twosides--samecoin and @danses-with-dogmeat 🥰 no pressure!
I'm planning on posting 24 tomorrow still, although I keep changing it 😅😭 here's a lighthearted little peek 😗
Nora pulled her arms tightly around herself to compensate for the loss of his body against hers as she watched him pull a-
Pft. A mutfruit from his pocket, of course. He grinned down at her warmly as he lifted his leg to pull the knife from his boot. "Don't look at me like that," he teased. "I told you, they're easy to carry around."
She was smiling too. "Have you always got one stashed away like that?"
"Yeah, basically." He cut the thing in half, then offered it to her. When she took it he moved on to wiping his knife on the hem of his shirt. "And I don't wanna hear you bitch about it being sticky okay? There's a sink right there" -he jutted his chin towards the bathroom as he stowed his knife- "and you're gonna have plenty of time to eat and wash your hands while I deliver Seth's stuff to him and round up Vee's team for you."
Not feminist as in "women should be included in the draft" but feminist as in "being drafted is a violation of bodily autonomy for any gender".
The draft should not exist. Drafting people into the military is a violation of human rights. You should not be able to force someone to risk their life. If you can't find enough people who care about a conflict to keep it going then it simply shouldn't keep going. You can't even force someone to donate a kidney using government power, why the fuck can you force them to donate their whole body and life to a cause they don't agree with or don't care about?
So, obviously classic wizard robes aren’t wheelchair friendly. (Alright, admittedly this isn’t common knowledge and also this definitely isn’t a problem for most but listen, this is a problem for me and I’m pleased to present a solution for it nonetheless.)
The issue is in the sleeves and the length of the robes. The traditional trumpet style allows them to get snagged, dirty, and caught in the wheels.
This is distinctly not an issue with other mobility aids such as canes and crutches, these wizards are fine to carry on with their trumpet sleeves simply rolled up if needed.
Now, one solution might simply to shorten the sleeves and hem to be out of the way, but that looks rather silly so I won’t do that. Instead I propose the more elegant design of a hanging sleeve to maintain that flowy magical feel while allowing for better range of motion.
Honestly I just love the look of hanging sleeves in general and think more people should appreciate them, wheelchair user or not.
Element mapping of a complex oxy-sulfide inclusion in steel
Inclusion name: Complex inclusions
Record No.: 461
Inclusion formula: No data
Inclusion type (Macro/Micro/Nano): Micro
Inclusion type (Exogenous/Indigenous): Indigenous
Inclusion classification: Oxide, sulfide, nitride
Inclusion composition in weight %: No data
Sample: Ovako steel
Steel composition in weight %: 0.97% C, 0.10% Si, 0.29% Mn, 0.015% P, 1.42% Cr, 0.13% Ni, 0.03% Mo, 0.17% Cu, 0.004% V, 0.027% Al, 0.0008% S.
Note: Complex non-metallic inclusions are considered to have at least a combination of oxide-sulfide or oxide-carbonitride or sulfide-carbonitride inclusions. Therefore, the detected complex inclusions in the samples were classified into the following five groups: Al2O3-CaO-S, Al2O3-MgO-(Mn,Ca)S, Al2O3-MgO-MnS, MnS-(Ti,V)CN and Al2O3-(TiV)CN.
Inclusions Ch 23
Queen of the World
Is now up on AO3
She didn't look at the books, regarding the man evenly over them instead. "Has RJ been giving you sass lessons?" she asked.
"He's got you talking about lightening your load, Nora. I will gladly take a page from his… unorthodox… book if it means we continue to trend in that direction."
Mac had been biting the inside of his cheek to keep from laughing at Preston's demonstration, but he felt himself ease naturally at the praise, sitting up a little straighter in his chair.
Nora watched her lieutenant a moment longer before looking between the two of them, an odd mishmash of emotions evident in the quickly flagging gleam of her eye. Finally she shrugged. "Fine. Bring ‘im around and I'll conduct an interview.” Her jaw tensed as she conceded, making Mac feel strangely… proud.
