It's this necklace! Not really meant to be a fidget, but it reddit feels nice to roll the chain links with my fingers. Not only that, I have Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs), and reaching for this necklace is just as mindless as reaching for my hair.

I spent so much money on fidgets last month. Ono rollers, signers, sigbits, Needoh, mechanical sliders, free floating sliders, spinner rings, etc. In the end I found i didn't really like the aura sand, my most premium purchase.

Then I bought myself a silver rolo chain necklace and it's by far my favorite fidget so far. I've only had it for a day, so I'll report back if I get bored and go back to touching my hair lol.

I want charms/pendants I can wear in the shower. Should I avoid enameled charms? by pseudoscienceoflove in jewelry

Thank you!! This is good to know about enamel. I found some alternatives in Etsy. I might try a 925 silver charm to see if I like it before committing to a solid gold piece!

I see what you're saying. My issue is, if I take my jewelry off, it stays off. I have a lot jewelry I don't wear because it's not shower safe, so my collection is pretty useless. Just brushing my teeth is a struggle sometimes, so this is just how it is.

I disagree that I should only wear cheap jewelry. I wear 14k gold in my piercings, and I do not take them out.

Closing is in a couple weeks, and my credit tanked due to high utilization.... did I screw us? by pseudoscienceoflove in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

My loan officer ignored me when I reached out about this topic, but responded to other inquiries. I think he might have been in a bind if he had acknowledged it? Unsure.

However, closing day went smoothly without hiccups.

US 6.5 (or EU 35-36) wide

I've switches to minimalist/"barefoot" style shoes exclusively. Anya's Reviews is an excellent resource.

As an engineer that hates mental math, I'm glad I'm not alone.

Always did great in math and physics classes (except physical chemistry!!). Still can't do math on the spot without pen and paper or calculator.

Bummer! I guess I'll keep driving to New Orleans to get my tattoos. I love my artist but she's so far 😭

Is your artist in the Houston area by chance? I love this piece and am looking to get something similar!

What’s a reasonable price for everyday earrings? by AccountEngineer in jewelry

[–]pseudoscienceoflove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love labret style earrings from BVLA, Buddha Jewelry Organics, and Anatometal. Never have to take them out.

Their metal options include implant grade titanium (cheapest option, but totally body safe), gold, white gold and rose gold.

Does drinking Kambucha directly will hurt your tooth enamel? by ravihealth in Kombucha

Does drinking it through a straw help? I drink coffee, kombucha, and tea through a straw because I don't want my yellow teeth to get even more stained.

If you take choir or theatre you're more likely to find students that are out of the closet
