Spotted at the Field Museum in Chicago

Obviously not mine lol photos taken from the museum display. But they were so stunning, I couldn't resist sharing here. The jewelry piece was labelled as being an 87 carat black opal brooch set in gold, while the standalone had no weight/measurements, just said "polished slice of black opal" from Australia. Wish I'd had time to take a quick video for the color play, but it photographed so well with the special lighting, I was pretty satisfied with the quick snaps! Enjoy ☺️

Tired beginner

Hello r/laundry,

I'm exhausted and my autoimmune issues are kicking my butt, but I really need to up my laundry game. I work in very dirty environments and my stuff just isn't getting clean 😣 . I tried going through the lipase list but the functionality on mobile wasn't vibing with my phone (filters wouldn't work) and my brain fog was making it really hard to keep track of which column was which when I scrolled. I'm sure it's a problem with my phone but fixing it probably isn't feasible for me with the fog today.

Would a kind redditor be willing to help me find a better detergent? Looking for a powder detergent with lipase and preferably also oxy boost, unscented. Economical is better.

I'm happy to take any other tips you all can give. I'm in the US but I only have a smaller "portable" washer that hooks up to the sink, all of my laundry has to hang dry. I'm going to pick up citric acid since my water is harder for sure, and I had been manually adding vinegar to the rinse but looks like citric acid will be cheaper in the long run.

Help me identify this nude portrait

Any ideas? Google/AI has not been helpful due to the nudity. Not sure where it was purchased originally, it's at least 10 years old, but most likely purchased 10-40 years ago by the most recent owner. I can't read the signature, not for lack of trying 😔
