Seconding everything here, but emphasizing point 2. Some folks have metal allergies or sensitivities - nickel is a common one, for example.
Surgical steel is usually safe, but still best to confirm she doesn’t have any particular sensitivities.

As someone who also wasn’t sure what this was about, I appreciate the genuine (yet not graphic) explanation. Thanks

I voted for this guy before and thought I’d continue to do so, but the crap he’s been pulling recently-ish has just confirmed for me he won’t ever get my vote again. What a jagoff.

I wish this were still the case. The last time I saw one of these was a year or so ago and I was excited to freeze. Unfortunately, the room AC was through a different, more modern, device. They just left the classic to toy with my emotions.

The only time I saw one was on a cheap dollar store plug. I immediately thought it was defective.
This is neat info!

I’m so disappointed in myself that I can’t find a way to make the surprised pikachu meme an appropriate response to this.
I cackled nonetheless.

But…I actually love pikachu and gaming. :(
Specifically Ash’s pikachu, and no other, but still.
Wait, does this mean Nintendo owes me money? Because I’ll accept.

The correct answer is people are fat cats. That commenter was so close.

My use of “you” was specific to the user to whom I was replying, not Harris. The user to whom I was replying implied that saying Hamas has a goal to kill Jews is a lie; it is not.

Look again at the community you’re in 😂
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
You may not realize this, but you can be against Israel’s genocide of innocent Palestinians without supporting Hamas - which is also pro-genocide, just of Jews.
It doesn’t have to be either/or. You can condemn awful people/groups/governments all around.

As someone who has both worn makeup and grinded against furniture in my time, I consent to you making fun of JD Vance for whatever you want.

I’ve only ever know people to use Bing for porn (or because their workplace forces it on them). There are people who actually choose it?

- Comment on I will not be taking questions. 4 months ago:
When I was a young kid, I had a cat that was front-declawed (this was before it was well known that it’s an abusive practice - my folks didn’t know better at the time). Because he couldn’t shred the paper with his claws, he showed his spite by chewing up the roll so it looked like he’d clawed it.

- Comment on hooooly shit! has anyone else played journey? 4 months ago:
Yeah, my first playthrough, I thought it was just NPCs chirping around me, but it turned out that they were real people! As players got more scarce, it was truly a special experience finding someone and going through parts of the game with them. I remember I encountered someone a few levels in and we somehow ended up together until we crawled up the snowy mountain, trying to keep each other from freezing. Not a single word spoken, yet this game has such powerful messaging.

Journey is my favorite game, hands down. It was even more magical in the years after its release and there were still a bunch of active players. Did you encounter any others on their journey in your game?

- Comment on House Passes Bill That Defines Criticism of Israel as “Antisemitism” 6 months ago:
I’m not Israeli, so not entirely sure about their laws, but Wikipedia confirms that there are non-Jewish citizens.
As a Jew, though, it would be far easier for me to obtain Israeli citizenship than it would be for a gentile.
- Comment on House Passes Bill That Defines Criticism of Israel as “Antisemitism” 6 months ago:
Nah, it makes perfect sense! If we don’t support Israel, then we’re not “real” Jews. Or is it that we’re supposed to be self-hating? Either way, I know I always look forward to (usually some flavor of Christian) politicians telling me how to be a Jew.
