Yes the point is that they’re similar, but with the added layer that you’re supposed to prefer the left because it looks more natural whereas the right looks like they tried too hard to achieve the same look and failed.

Wtf dude, I could have gone my whole life not knowing this. I hope your socks get wet.

My mom had a fake fur coat and I wore it, pretending to be a bear.

They might just be happy every day that we’re not being invaded.

Sometimes you’ve got to make some looove

Do you need to have it to apply for a job? I’ve only ever needed it when actually starting a job but I’m Canadian.

That’s not “back in the day”. My parents are older than that and they didn’t have an arranged marriage. They are good people. My grandparents did have an arranged marriage and they were good people too.

Not me, I slept through my alarm and got up at the time my body thinks is normal.

Guess I’m going to poop myself to death then.

My coworker does this too. Videos, messages, his fucking doorbell. I work from home now so it can’t bother me anymore, but idk how our boss can stand being in the same room as him.

He was playing a video during a teams meeting the other day and everyone could hear it. He didn’t stop when called out on it (boss wasn’t there that day), and the person leading the meeting literally said, “how does he keep getting unmuted?”

Hard disagree. Some languages are so wildly different that it would be really hard to confuse them like that. Like where the grammar structure is different so it’s not like you’re just substituting a word in one language for a word in another.

It seems much more popular in the states but seems to be getting some good traction in Canada now. I went on a little disc golf road trip in BC and there are actually some pretty good guerilla courses out there that people have clearly put a lot of work into.

Damn, number two in the world?? Best I’ve played is nineteenth!

I’m not trying to be argumentative, but that’s not really how proper piercing works. I think what you’re explaining is what a place like Claire’s would do, use a thicker earring in a piercing gun to push the surrounding flesh out of the way in order to make a hole.

A piercing studio uses a hollow needle inserted by hand, so it goes in gently and easily and the flesh in the hole is actually removed since it’s inside the needle now. Then the earring is inserted afterwards. It’s far less traumatizing to the body this way.

As someone who has a lot of piercings, I suggest sticking with 1.2mm and up, for stability. Cheese cutter effect is a real concern, and may or may not be able to be fixed by repiercing.

I’m actually looking for cute jewelry for my mom because she was complaining about how the posts on “regular” earrings were so thin, but she doesn’t know how to shop for legit piercing jewelry.

I would say it’s riskier to stay at less than 1mm as it’s so thin that it’s more likely to just rip out your ear if it gets caught on hair or clothing. There isn’t really a risk in switching between different thicknesses, just be careful when stretching to a bigger size so you don’t harm your piercing.

Why should someone be obligated to live as long as they can, at the expense of their quality of life?

I have a friend with a terminal illness who opted for MAID. I’m so thankful that option was available because he was in so much pain at the end. It makes a huge difference to be able to choose a dignified death, surrounded by people you love and who love you.

Can confirm. I generally prefer the comfort of holding a real book but e-readers are a godsend for blackouts and vacations.

I am absolutely not telling my parents how late I stayed up last night. They’re not even in the country but I don’t need to feel them judging me from over there.

In BTVS they can. There’s a vampire who’s cursed with having a soul and is therefore unwilling to hurt humans, so he just toddles down to the butcher and gets blood from them.

Soulless vampires either like the hunt or just prefer the taste of human blood. For instance, some vampires just raid blood banks instead of hunting humans.

Absolutely. There’s no better feeling than knowing someone will always be there for you and have your best interests in mind. Cuddles and stupid jokes aren’t bad either, if you’re into that sort of thing.

Even in past relationships that didn’t work out, I wouldn’t say the time/money/energy was wasted either. I don’t regret any of it, even if it was only to find out what didn’t work for me and what I didn’t want in the future.

I know you’re trying to come to terms with being alone, but I truly believe love is worth fighting for, if you decide you want that. I hope you find the peace you’re looking for.
