@luinalaska Yes! There are so many ways to show you’re truly interested in someone without awkwardly inserting their name repeatedly in conversation. And they all require actually BEING interested. The idea of intentionally saying someone’s name over and over feels creepy to me.

@marissaComstok @LadyNimby Fascinating! I wonder what it is about mango that makes me think of the smell of dirty socks?

@WonderWomaNinja I like D slightly better for this one, then B. So individually I like two Ds and one B. However, looking at all three together, I definitely like B best. There’s an immediate distinction between the different scents with B, while the D options are too similar and feel the same.

@WonderWomaNinja I like B best on this one, then D.

[Esther Geoffrey @e_geoffrey_]

@WonderWomaNinja I like D and then B. The other two feel too AI to me. When I see that particular AI aesthetic, I think I transfer that artificial feel of the design to the product inside. While I know the product is the same in all of them, those two just feel less natural to me.

@UpTambourine I view it similarly to ESA accounts here in AZ (education funds that follow the child and can be used for homeschooling). I don’t think the government should fund this at all, but if they are already giving it out for childcare, I’d rather it go to a parent than somewhere else.

@c3vvno I’ve had that since I was a kid in the 80s, and wasn’t diagnosed with POTS until 2018. Not sure if there’s a connection or not.

[Esther Geoffrey @e_geoffrey_]

@HumorChronic I have hEDS, POTS,and MCAS. When I overdo it (and the amount of activity I can handle varies from day to day), my brain stops being able to process anything, and my fatigue feels like I can’t even lift my limbs.

@musings_blonde I read that because of the not guilty by reason of insanity plea, Massachusetts law required the prosecution to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that she was actually sane at the time of the murders. As opposed to the defense having to prove she was insane. Seems backwards to me.

@DiaryofaSickGrl I got a sample kit of Sweet Face Minerals products on Amazon, and my skin handled it well. It looks like some of their products do use rice powder, but mostly minerals and clay. https://t.co/Oi5M7Yo7FM

[Esther Geoffrey @e_geoffrey_]

@DrRebeccaRyan I’m a POTS and MCAS patients, and I don’t know which season is worse either. Even here in AZ, where the summer is brutal and destroys me, I’m also often out of commission all winter. They’re both brutal.

@806Engineer @MCPonX Do they only show up on a computer or android? All the emojis in this thread just look like the normal emojis on my iPhone to me.

[Esther Geoffrey @e_geoffrey_]

@homemakinghunny Oh no! 😥

@Agratefulheart_ I used to love the smell of books, and still love the smell of old books, but I now have mast cell reactions to some new books. Apparently they started using ink that has acrylic in it, and it sets me off immediately. Sometimes flyers that come in the mail do it too. So sad!!!

[Esther Geoffrey @e_geoffrey_]

@WonderWomaNinja I like the 1970 CAT. It’s the one available through https://t.co/x3p4pJjOcD or through https://t.co/4qF1pDdXke.

@gummibear737 I think he might be mixing up the accusation of blood libel with the accusation that “the Jews killed Jesus so his blood is on their hands”. Two different tropes, but both involve blood. If so, he would not be implying that Jews ever murdered Christian children.

[Esther Geoffrey @e_geoffrey_]

@DiaryofaSickGrl Hard to say. I’ve got PCOS, hEDS, POTS, and MCAS (compounded by HaTS). But I think I might also be dealing with NCS, MTS, and possibly other vascular compressions. Not tested yet for those, but having quite a few symptoms that match, and they’re relatively common with EDS.

[Esther Geoffrey @e_geoffrey_]

@Agratefulheart_ I’m so glad it’s working for you!!!

[Esther Geoffrey @e_geoffrey_]

@Agratefulheart_ Ugh. Im so sorry! Hopefully in the future, after your system has a chance to calm down, you’ll be able to handle some things again.
