Apparently its what the procedure/ear aesthetic got called in China where it originated www.vice.com/en/article/e...
Cause I also would never have thought to describe it that way unless this article had popped up in a search
‘Elf Ears’ Are Trending in China. People Are Undergoing Surgery To Get Them.
Protruding ears may have been the target of playground bullies, but they’re now fueling a budding beauty trend in China.

amusingly was just discussing this with friends, you haven't seen anything new bc I don't think theres been any advancement, its all still essentially a docking of your ears with some rough side effects and less than stellar results as far as "looking like an elf"

And yeah I know people mean "politics" as a shorthand for "news about politicians, especially US national politicians" but when I mean that I say "political news"

To me "politics" is anything regarding the governance of an area. Like regulations to prevent harmful light pollution.

happy birthday dear birthday twin.

One of my best friends got a new position going from retail to HR that is overall a better job and I'm happy for her, but selfishly she's moving a whole opposite coast of the country closer to me again and will have more time for playing games and such!
