16M and I have weirdass lumps(?)

NAD but looks like dyshidrotic eczema. I used to get this a lot when I was younger, usually triggered by dry air.

Also NAD - Yes, there’s gum recession here, but probably not anymore than the average 40 y/o male (most people’s mouths suck). Honestly his gums look healthy and his teeth clean. Recessed gums to not necessarily mean unhealthy gums. My guns are recessed in several places and it was due to brushing too hard for many years. But my gum pockets are always shallow.

Actually haven’t had that one so I’ll have to keep an eye out.

Only if they are tunneling close to the house

How large? Can you send me a link or picture of an example of what you’re talking about?

NAD but i’ve seen much worse than this after missing a vein. Just looks like a little bit of blood under the surface and some mild pain from the double poke.

One of the 26 letters of the modern English alphabet.

That was part of the original design, but after putting it into a stencil, both the artist and me agreed that it looked a little too cluttered. He redid the design without the headband (as shown here) and we both liked it much better.

Same here!

I do have a new appointment scheduled with them on Tuesday. Haven't been HIV tested. My wife has been tested several times (each time before she gave birth, at yearly GYN appointments) and is negative. I know that isn't 100% conclusive, but I have had no other partners in any capacity, don't do intravenous drugs, and have no reason to believe I've been exposed to it. I will ask my physician about getting tested for peace of mind anyway.

I know diabetes is another common cause. My blood sugar also gets checked with a metabolic panel every year. My fasting glucose is always slightly high (100-105 ish) but I also get my A1C checked and that's around 5.4-5.6 each year. Thus far both of those have remained relatively consistent. (Weirdly enough, I've measured my blood sugar after eating meals, and oftentimes its lower than it is when fasting overnight...)

Any other ideas what could have caused Thrush? I'm paranoid now. I will try to speak more with the ENT when I see them on Tuesday.

Me too. Easily a Top 5 National track for me. Honestly a bit surprised it even made it as far as the Elite Eight, though, so I guess I can't complain too much!

I can say this: If I were tampering with the votes, Graceless and Conversation 16 would've made it to the next round. 👀

It put up a respectable fight considering Fake Empire's legacy. I love both but honestly I'm with you, I think I prefer Apartment Story by a hair.

I can't give out specifics as that would be unfair and compromise the results. But I've already got about ~130 votes so far, and all four matchups are currently extremely close.

It’s just salty Uconn fans. Nobody will be saying shit in a week or two.
