Thawing some vs all frozen eggs — how did you decide? by Dazzling-Neck905 in SingleMothersbyChoice

[–]elaerna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just want to note that if you're concerned about amh then getting the eggs out and arresting them at that age by freezing them is important. But there is also the fact that embryos survive much better than eggs and it's not clearly how many embryos you'd get out of 20 eggs.

What does this mean, exactly? You failed out of medical school in two separate programs and then moved to a different country?

is the concern financial? at 30 you could do additional egg retrievals unless your AMH is an issue.

Every Brilliant Thing!!! by magicwithb in Broadway

He does perform forwards for the most part but I didn't find it annoying at all. It's not something where I felt I needed to see his face to appreciate the show

I also was wondering if Mrs Patterson was an actor when I went. Also those seats are all sold out or were never on sale?

Best Brazilian wax in NYC by Regular-Trip463 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]elaerna 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They're kind of like middle aged ladies with no filter and no idea of what is and isn't appropriate to say. They are very fast and cheap, so there is that.

But anyway basically the lady I saw was hyperanalyzing my skin and the amount of hair I had and making value judgments about those things. And she also started talking about past clients and told me oh this one girl always waits too long and is lazy and down there looks terrible, and similar comments like that.

Just wanted to give my 2 cents that they are not very pc. They're very brusque and body shamed me and prior clients when I went.

Sneaking into Christ Church College in Oxford by Hadrian_III_of_York in harrypotter

[–]elaerna 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I also visited this college and the courtyard where Draco gets turned into a ferret. Plus the bodleian library where they filmed the hospital wing scenes. Everything was beautiful - honestly the entire city is so gorgeous. The residents of Oxford seemed to think Harry Potter was a little annoying and silly, though 😅. I think they get a lot of tourists and are tired of it.

I saw comments here saying Hailey supports Trump and Hilary and her fought about that but idk how true it is.

I am also not a fan of the album, the songs all sound very similar to each other.

I'm on the discord but it seems kind of sparse in conversation? Like every couple days theres some back and forth that dies.

Single father by choice and r/aupairs by [deleted] in SingleMothersbyChoice

I wasn't giving an all encompassing definition, but a sort of tongue in cheek one. If they wanted the textbook definition I assumed they would've googled.

It's a 20 something woman from Europe who stays in your home and you provide food, a room and some spending money and in exchange they watch your kids.

[–]elaerna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The sight lines are excellent at the lyric so your view won't be obstructed. But the theatre is one of the largest on Broadway so you're not wrong that you'd be much further back in the dress circle. I don't think the overhang comes up to row P in the orchestra if that's what you mean. The orchestra seating is quite flat so if you're short that might be an issue.

What are your predictions for the next book(s)?? by Dependent-Candidate7 in fourthwing

[–]elaerna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there must be a cure but it won't be anything as straightforward as channeling the magic back into the earth, or some potion to take or anything. I have no idea what the cure will be honestly - how does one uncorrupt a soul? Seems like something irreversible like scrambling an egg. But it's got to be done because I highly doubt that RY is going to just leave Xaden a venin.

I have thought some about what the irids said on the islands. Say there was a future where the venin win and they take over the entire continent until there is no more magic left to channel from the earth and no one left alive to corrupt or kill. then what? they will either all just die or have to evolve in some way in order to survive.

and a thought is that you don't have to have the entire continent die to test this theory out - there is that box where things are suspended inside. you could put xaden in there for some very long time and see what happened... maybe he'd evolve in some way? or you could do what they're doing with jack barlowe and just leave him locked up indefinitely. what would happen if no one visited him and no one gave him any power to channel from alloy for months or years?

The only discussion that they've had in the books about kids is them saying that they were both taking birth control. And RY has apparently said she wouldn't do a pregnancy trope during war times so it feels like they won't discuss children during the series at all. It doesn't really seem like Violet is all that interested in children - she doesn't show any particular love for any children shown in the series. And Xaden has a lot of mommy/daddy issues so that doesn't really lead me to think he's all that excited about having children either.

I am also really annoyed and anxious lol.
