I had a really bad coffee stain on my front teeth. Had tried the crest ones for a while but they weren't helping. My hygienist did some treatment and told me it'll probably come back because of the texture of my teeth, but told me to use the crest ones a few days ahead of a special event if I wanted a touchup. Stain came back.

Went to the dentist for an unrelated issue and my dentist noticed the stain, literally filed down my tooth in like 2 seconds and for free, and the stain has never come back again, lol.

When not in the mood for talking, singing bowls for sure.

When my brain can't stop and I need a distraction, either the sleep with me podcast or welcome to nightvale. Sometimes Sleep Whispers but that one can be over stimulating for my lil ASMR brain.

I'm not vegan or vegetarian anymore because I have a lot of allergies that prevent me from eating plant based anything. But I also try to limit it to locally and ethically harvested when I do eat meat.

I identify as agnostic and definitely don't believe that any one living being is better or more special than the others (except maybe cats).

Yeah my sister went to India a few years back by herself and while thankfully nothing terrible happened to her, she said she would never go back. Just walking around she said the streets are majority men and they are not shy about staring at any woman (especially someone who was clearly a foreigner). Of course, parts of the trip were cool but definitely not the place to be travelling alone as a woman.

This is unironically one of my favourite questions to ask new friends. I've gotten a variety of answers, but my own response has always been yes, if the person was healthy and had clearly consented.

In my opinion, cannibalism is bad for two main reasons, 1) it can be unsafe if the person was ill, the meat has spoiled, or if it's done too often (this has been studied in cannibalistic rituals) and 2) it's unethical if the person doesn't consent to it.

Eating animal meat is non consensual and there can be diseases in there too - many people have died from it. Just because it's more socially acceptable, I don't really see it as an ethically better decision.

I would 100% at least try my own home grown meat cells.

When we started dating my partner told me I look like Jeff Goldblum (I am a female). He then bought us a Jeff Goldblum curtain for the bathroom and a portrait we put on the wall, as well as several records, keychains and cushions with Jeff (including that Jurassic park one). It's weird as fuck but Jeff's a handsome guy and a cool fucking person so I'm not too worried about it.

This is absolutely not true.

Sometimes it's a very mediocre $8 taco.

I used to do this with a straw while head was upside down. Worked really well when I was younger but haven't tried it recently.

I do the thing where you drink water while rubbing your tongue on the roof of your mouth. Success rate is pretty low tbh.
