Thing is, star opal isn’t… real.

The GIA seems to differ. They’re rare, but they’re definitely real, and they’ve been found in Thailand.

On balance you’re very probably correct that her ring isn’t star opal simply because of how rare they are, but still, slight YTA for jumping to conclusions immediately without taking a look at the stone first.

Yeah I just tried it and kbin.social isn’t on the list. Funny enough, reddthat.com isn’t on there either – I logged into Jerboa with a reddthat instance account lol

@BabushkaCat No worries, it’s all good, gemology and materials science is so fucking cool and I’m really delighted you’re studying it

Bantamweight’s haunting cover of Nirvana’s Heart Shaped Box is sorely underrated in my opinion.

ERRA’s versions of Audioslave’s Light My Way and Muse’s Stockholm Syndrome.

Art vs Science’s psychedelic-funk cover of Enter Sandman featuring a sweet as keytar solo.

Sleep Token’s heartwrenching unplugged version of Hey Ya!.

And finally, Denzel Curry’s supercharged version of Bulls on Parade. I didn’t think the track could sound angrier but he’s gone and done it.

Bonus: Andrew Hulshult’s Hell March, featuring chainguns as percussion, Master Boot Record’s Doom E1M1 metal chiptune remix, and GeoffPlaysGuitar’s argent-metalized Halo Overture.

Time, the Valuator covered Lovely as well. Pretty fucking amazing.

Had a huge Northern Kings phase a couple years ago. Damn good stuff.

I listen to music or podcasts while cycling to/from work everyday, but at low enough volumes that I can easily hear traffic around/behind me. I would not recommend it if you’ve just started cycling, but if you’re comfortable enough on a bike in city traffic it should be okay. Just make sure you’re always constantly aware of what’s happening around you.

And wear a helmet, at the very least.

Hal – It’s the Sims, except focused on one guy called Hal.
Super Sash Bros – They’re all fabulous and they love to parade about in their sashes!
Dragon Ball Xenverse – A couple of Saiyans find themselves in the Borderworld and help Gordon Freeman send the Nihilanth packing.
The Matrix: Path of No – You take the blue pill. The end.

I saw that! Greyed-out Wolverine model bouncing off the log truck lol

It’s not about the chocolate, something else is eating at her. Talk to her and find out what that is. NTA
