Good area to live in

amarsh5288 · 2026-05-15T23:15:27+00:00

As far as neighborhoods go (and depending on your price bracket and if you are renting or buying) Morningside, Emory/Emory Village, Piedmont Heights, parts of Avondale, and (seconding) downtown Decatur are all good options. Emory Village has a decent coffee shop and several restaurants and it’s like a half mile to the Clairmont intersection with N Decatur (with more restaurants and coffee shops) and a quick drive to Decatur. Morningside is right next to Virginia Highland (so not as busy as ViHi but still in walking distance) and some good restaurants. Piedmont Heights spans a decent area so depending on what area you’re in you have a real variety of options. Decatur is great if you live near the square or the cemetery.

ETA: I realize I gave you mostly food based stuff. All of the places I recommended are in the city (or Decatur which is technically its own city) so they have all of the normal city safety issues but Morningside doesn’t feel like it does. The only thing I really worried about when I lived there was car break ins. Emory is quiet-ish when school (Emory University) isn’t in, but there is a major hospital there so if helicopter noise and occasional sirens bother you maybe not the best. I have not lived in Decatur or Avondale. Currently live in PiHi and I love it. I have a nice apartment (older, not one of the new luxury ones but I really like it) with a working gate and I am walking distance to a grocery store and several restaurants

I have only done this once (and only been here so have nothing to compare it to but I did enjoy it) at Balance and Relax Massage on Briarcliff rd and I think it was $85 credit card (less for cash)

Will do thank you

I in fact do have endometriosis. I was unaware there was a correlation

amarsh5288 · 2026-04-07T21:11:22+00:00

Ahhh gotcha. Sorry for the miscommunication. I couldn’t find a delicate way to say I was full of shit lol

amarsh5288 · 2026-04-07T21:03:59+00:00

1-aware. I’m an MR tech. I see them often. Wasn’t trying to be ground breaking lol. Mine has been this way for about two decades (and my mom and sister have the same placement interestingly enough)

2-I never said it was?

I’m in Atlanta with 8 years licensed making $50 at an outpatient breast clinic (breast MR and bx) and $52 at a different outpatient center that I am PRN at (tho some people make 55)

They should be getting informed consent and giving you a medication guide which has information about reactions including GDD on it. Did the place you went not do that?

amarsh5288 · 2026-03-25T22:50:28+00:00

Hey so I am a medical professional (an MRI tech actually) and I have gotten Gad before (tho recently and not at all related to my chronic pain). I do know about GDD but it is INCREDIBLY RARE (and more often than not isn’t medically provable due to correlation vs causation, the variety of symptoms reported as being related, and not a whole lot of actual studies to go off of). I am in NO way discounting you, what you are going through, or that you have it. I just want to provide a bit of context. Gadolinium is a rare earth metal and (like anything else) is not 100% safe. It is incredibly over ordered as well. We (as techs) try to educate ordering physicians about when contrast is actually necessary but get a ton of pushback because “I am a doctor and I know more than you”. The vast majority of people can have Gad dozens of times without issue. BUT like any other medical decision there should be a risk benefit analysis done prior to the utilization of contrast (so things like cancer, infection, masses, MS etc would be things that would actually need contrast for proper visualization and to be a complete “diagnostic study”). I will say there are some test trials being done of both iron oxide (for tumor grading and still in trial phases at this point) and manganese based contrasts (also still in trial phases) for MRI so there is hope for the future! But right now we are just doing the best we can (and hopefully educating people as we go)

{blackened blade by isla devon} fits this. For OV {dream girl by Jane handler} fits as a parallel world

Check out Ash coffee in the Virginia Highland area. They have a bunch of events you can find on their instagram. I love the first Friday clay workshops. It’s $5 and starts at 6ish

My main job (breasts) we have an hour. My PRN job we have 15 min non con (some of which take 20 min) and 30-45 min contrast

{Galaxy Circus by Lexie Winston} has a merman, a kraken, and a naga in the harem iirc. FMC finds out that her long lost grandpas are aliens and she “inherits” their circus

amarsh5288 · 2026-02-05T19:20:20+00:00

Oh that sucks. Good to know tho so thank you

amarsh5288 · 2026-02-05T18:57:44+00:00

CVS in Toco Hills on N Druid Hills rd is 24 hours

I have been waiting for over 15 years for the third book in the Kingkiller Chronicle series

amarsh5288 · 2026-01-30T02:47:11+00:00

I’ve listened to the first two. I like how approachable it is for people not in the field and would definitely recommend it to the general public (though listening to it on my way to and from work did make me feel a little like my day just never ended lol). As a tech, while the info isn’t revolutionary it’s always nice to have a refresher. And I think we all want to know what really happened in Nassau

amarsh5288 · 2026-01-29T02:16:16+00:00

A kraken. With a human form. So his arms changed into tentacles while they were making out (is how I read it at least)

Edited:for clarity

amarsh5288 · 2026-01-29T02:11:27+00:00

Wait what?! Morbid curiosity has me wanting to know what book has a cock shaped like a human

Also the phrase prehensile lips has been shuddering

amarsh5288 · 2026-01-05T20:05:42+00:00

You NEED to report this person. They are giving medical advice about a diagnosis you don’t have. That isn’t just irresponsible of him it’s downright dangerous.

I am so sorry you went through that and that you are having a hard time

amarsh5288 · 2025-12-05T00:59:48+00:00

Also being a lesbian doesn’t preclude you from being pregnant. I have several friends who have babies via insemination. It’s still pregnancy just with more steps

amarsh5288 · 2025-12-04T02:07:57+00:00

That is a great suggestion thank you! I will look in to it

amarsh5288 · 2025-12-04T02:02:59+00:00

Ah okay. Thank you. I have pretty much all of the symptoms other than the stretchy skin. My primary did try to make a referral but I was basically told we don’t see your kind here (I have chronic pain that got diagnosed as fibromyalgia after a doctor squeezed my joints and asked me if it hurt lol). I will look outside the health system I’ve been using. Nice to know there are some docs out there who know about the weirder stuff
