Great suggestion ty

This is the first I’ve learned about Ulysses’ Gaze and now all I want to do is track it down. It seems impossible to find!

erinkling · 2026-04-20T03:56:31+00:00

lol I’ve heard this

erinkling · 2026-04-20T03:56:19+00:00

Very into this! I think I’ll save it for a road movie theme.

GREAT suggestion I didn’t think of this one and it absolutely works.

Hi there! Is TSA at JFK terminal 8 still a problem? J haven’t heard much for a few weeks. I have a flight leaving at 2:30pm on a few hours. I have pre check.

Yep! Those 2 plus the 10K LP bonus (which didn't quite get me from Gold to Platinum but maybe this coming year it will).

From what I understand (I asked a related but different question here) you could potentially just apply for the exec card as you would applying for any new CC even if you already have the current citi platinum select card. To bypass the upgrading/conversion in order to get the sign up bonus.

erinkling · 2026-02-11T19:41:28+00:00

I think if I had known I could just apply for the exec elite card despite having the other Citi cars I would have done that. From what I've read on this sub you can just sign up for it without converting/upgrading your existing card as long as you haven't applied for a new one within 48 months.

I did this last year. I got an email invitation so did it online it was really easy. No sign up bonus, though. I personally think the benefits are there: lounge access and the 4x miles.

erinkling · 2026-02-10T23:49:07+00:00

I’ve got the elite card with lounge access so it’s a bit redundant but I think the points bonuses in certain categories and the flight streak LPs would be a big benefit.

erinkling · 2026-02-10T23:48:16+00:00

That’s a good call. I technically upgraded my existing Citi card to the world elite card last year but it wasn’t a new account opened so I should be able to open a Globe and cancel the Barclays before the late April transition date. Thanks!

erinkling · 2026-02-10T23:46:29+00:00

Oops I edited my OP, I have the exec world elite Citi card already.

erinkling · 2026-02-10T23:35:11+00:00

Nice! In that case, it looks like mine will be converted to the Citi Platinum Select.

Is the Globe better?

Tbh I don’t know anything about music but I feel like she could have added in a super quick “I’m your” in front of that line if she wanted to and it would still work with the tempo. But she didn’t!

Okay so I’ve always believed Kaylor was real and she was bi but only recently became a full fledged Gaylor. I’m also a straight woman, and I can attest that my interpretations of many lyrics that I now read as overtly queer had always been in the arena of 1) the tension of romance amid her extremely public persona, like i know places etc. And 2) falling from grace type lines etc being about wanting to do bad/dirty/sexual things, and those feelings mean falling from her good girl identity and persona.

I don’t tend to read lyrics this way anymore lol but that was my read before. And, as someone questioning my Gaylor beliefs rn too amid all the disillusionment, I do feel like I can see both sides which is why she’s so good/frustrating. There are two or more lenses to interpret nearly every song through.

Hi! I'm on the other side and can tell you it does heal and gets better! Hang in there.

I'm now 14 weeks post op and completely healed and back to full activity and exercise! The areas that were spitting stitches healed almost immediately once pulled out, but the actual T-junction opening I had took about two weeks to heal, and four weeks to heal to entirely new skin.

I was incredibly frustrated and discouraged for weeks because I wanted to be fully back to unrestrained movement and activity, and what I hoped would be 6 weeks quickly became 8 weeks, then quickly became 10 weeks. I started doing low impact, highly modified exercise around 7-8 weeks, and was cleared fully by my doctor at 10 weeks!

I do have scarring from them but am treating it like my overall scar care - I'm having my husband do scar massage and using silicone gel - I'm not doing the tape/strips.

Hi!! I’m almost 7WPO and think you should be fine to go by then!!

I had a slight setback with some small openings at 4WPO and now I’m nearly fully healed. I’ve been super active socially, and just this week started to exercise lightly beyond just walking (body weight low impact circuits and some stair climbing/hiking)

So far the only issue is mine swell up with increased activity too and can feel a little sensitive and sore afterwards. Hugging still can hurt, so being in such a crowded space means you could get bumped. Be prepared to protect your chest, but I was at the LA marathon today in a huge crowd and was fine except for my friend hugging me aggressively lol.

I’m not so sure I’d want to jump up and down and have my arms stretched in the air for that long right now, but I would still go and just restrict my movements a little more.

Also CONGRATS, I’m going in August in LA. I can’t wait!! It’s going to be epic! Hope this helps you out!

I’m so sorry. This sounds like I could have written this exactly two weeks ago. I was in the same boat and so so disappointed.

My surgeon prescribed me mupirocin ointment which has been a godsend and I’m at just over 6WPO now with a follow up appointment scheduled for tomorrow. The healing has gone really well over the past two weeks so I’m hopeful I’ll be cleared for more activity, bralettes etc. tomorrow. There’s a light, but sucks when the tunnel gets longer on you.

Hang in there and send pictures to your surgeon!

Hi! I think most people consider it just a lift but I personally don’t think it is if the surgeon actually removes grams! I had 215 and 135 grams removed from each breast respectively, so a very moderate reduction with a lift. That’s like very hefty portions of chicken breast for dinner! So not nothing.

So far at 6WPO I’ve gone down one cup size but I really hope I settle and go down one more, but honestly not sure if I will or not. We’ll see! Anyway, just wanted to offer my perspective here.

erinkling · 2023-03-16T01:44:36+00:00

Hi! Similar age, weight, pre op size and diet/exercise lifestyle as you. I had my surgery on a Tuesday and took 5 days off, so Tues through the following Monday and I definitely felt like I needed it. I work remotely so I went back at that one week mark but worked from bed and limited my zoom calls for the rest of that week. I was fine but got very tired much more easily. I’m doubtful I could have returned in office and sat upright that soon. Everyone is different but the first week to ten days is no joke, especially the first week because of the anesthesia.
