@rowyn or perhaps Cassie just likes two people and always will!

@soph_sol gotta love an excuse to go reread your bookmarks 😆

@lirazel there are some studies backing you up on this!

Medical, mini-psa? 

@ysabet ugh yeah thats frustrating! I also developed mine over time, though mostly during my teens when I was also busy developing symptoms for a whole host of other medical issues

Medical, mini-psa? 

@ysabet yeah i’m in a similar boat where i’ve just assumed it was a simple nickel allergy (which is pretty common) and mostly not had issues with anything but costume jewelry

but i have a piece of white gold that i *might* have problems mild with??? so i asked and it turns out to be extremely answerable

Medical, mini-psa? 

@ysabet several people i know who have had issues with rarer metal reactions (suspected titanium for one) had never been told this was an option so i figured i should spread the word, such as it is

funny relationship story 

@Lady me having just scheduled four drs appointments over spring breaks really proves both those points doesn’t it lmao

@yesterdaychild guess you’ll just have to read another one to uhhhh compensate? yes thats how this works, right

@rowyn hm interesting! I don’t think I (or Cassie) would like it if this turned into a competition (eg. Magnus and Umbral are both okay with situation but only bc they presume Cassie will choose someone soonish, which they want to be them), but Umbral’s point about practice is certainly a good one, and they did volunteer while mostly-fully informed *ponders*

@Mayana welcome back! December was a bit overwhelm for me also so i get the need for a break (and not necessarily forseeing it enough to announce in advance) but i hope things are better for you now :)

Medical, mini-psa? 

Since I just found out this is a thing—if you have allergies, particularly if you’ve ever had a reaction to nickel jewelry etc, you can get a whole surgical allergy panel done which will check for 20 different metals & other materials commonly used in surgical tools & implants!

Its a bit more involved than normal allergy skin tests so you’ll likely have to go in for multiple visits—I had to schedule mine out over my week off in march because we couldn’t find a set of appointment slots which worked with my normal schedule but it means I’ll be able to make a fully informed decision if I ever need any procedures/implants rather than being like “uhhhh I *think* I’m only allergic to nickel and maybe chromium????“

food related ish 

@pixouls @Forestofglory lemon juice ice cubes are pretty versatile—throw one in anything that needs an extra acid or thaw a whole bunch out to make lemonade or lemon curd or whatever

gender-y underwear question 

@twistylittlepassages yeah it may not be practical, and it might end up backfiring on me (ie. most people dont care enough to sort but when faced with the two options choose ‘less plastic’) but i do think there are ways to usefully narrow the search scope besides sorting by which gender / anatomy a pair is traditionally associated with!
