Around 5-ish years ago, I had started to gauge my ears a little. But I didn't actually care for how it looked, so I quit after only like...2 small sizes up from normal. I almost never wear earrings in my lobe piercings anyway.

have you tried etsy?

also I wonder where Panda has been...

Lol. I never think of Etsy, but that actually is a good suggestion...

be careful, Kaderin.... Etsy is a trap!!

XD

We were referring tsukiko there, not me.
I am already a pro at navigating the traps of Etsy. I just favorite everything I want and never buy them.

you'd said that you never think of Etsy. that might be a good thing then. XD

and yes, it's still a trap.

I mean that I never think of recommending ot for finding things like ear gauge earrings and stufd like that.

ah, gotcha.

this is what happens when i come in in the middle of a conversation. XD

Hehe I got a really cool uh what's the name of the EAR CUFF!! yeah really cool ear cuff there. Handmade, steampunk style. I bought small ones but ofc I lost those <.<

Nice! I'm actually really bad about being able to wear ear cuffs. Either they're too snug and hurt or they fall off constantly. Etsy is my go-to for unique lip balms and lotion stuff though.

It kinda hurts but after a while I get used to the pain |D
(sounds kinda masochistic)

Ear pain is the one pain that I just can't tolerate very well (like, getting ears pierced isn't a big deal, but the constant pain of a too-tight ear cuff, I can't tolerate.

I'm ok with ear pain, but headaches... I can't do a thing allll day

Headaches generally aren't a big deal for me, but migraines on the other hand....I am almost useless unless I 100% have to be at work, then I push through because I have no choice. But it still sucks.
