The estimate is for $15K to do the first half. She's only 1/5 of the way there, and the deadline to be out, as in GONE, is 10 days from now [10/15]. Can we get a big push, everyone sharing this? gofund.me/2ed90a936

Did anyone have those cheap plastic charm necklaces as a kid? Because this is giving me plastic charm necklace vibes (complimentary -- I loved those things) like crazy.

I had a pendant a lot like this when I was a teen! Suddenly wondering if I *still* have a pendant a lot like this...

I for one welcome Becky’s brooch crimes. If for no other reason than I suspect my nephew wants to steal my sparkly chicken…

Pretty sure a Biblically accurate Jesus would be super cool with you melting down silver effigies and would be way more interested in a healthy dog.

Have you noticed, lately, or noticed people around you commenting, that there just seems to be no money anymore. There's no money for companies to make the tv shows you like, the video games you like, the local diner you like shut down, no one you know can find a job. Think about that in context of

He seems to be. That's the thing with cats -- some of them are so very lovely and sweet. I cat-sat once for a trio -- one was awesome (wanted to steal him), one viewed me as a pillow but otherwise ignored me, one hated me. For someone who grew up with dogs, it was nuts.

Hey! After this conversation, I checked the various chains I have. Turns out, I have a *lot* of 18" chains already. So... I think I'd want a 20" chain, if possible. Not a big deal either way, but just updating. 😁

I love this cat. I'm not really a cat person (I need my canine-inspired unconditional love and cats are... judgy). But Stack makes me rethink that stance on a regular basis.

I love this! Didn't want to have bad feelings about being greedy but also didn't want to give it up. Win-win!

Lovely! But, as much as I would love to personally fund your pup's vet visits, I absolutely must not buy anything more tonight. (🚫)

Sorry... I've been wanting something like this for a bit -- I have something sentimental I want to carry around, and this is basically perfect. Been going back-and-forth on the other perfume pendant they posted, but this is more what I wanted.

OMG. Dare I ask how much??? Because yes, this is awesome and soooo blue!

Also, since you asked the question, I'm also terrified about sapphires.

Just seeing this. I often feel very positive about sapphires. Especially if they're really blue sapphires...

I'm kinda dying right now... (Is it like a solid hoop or links like a standard tennis bracelet? Any way to see it on a wrist? Literally trying to figure out if it's different enough from what I own to justify it at all.)

Well, this is spectacular. (🚫 only because I have a tanzanite tennis bracelet and probably can't justify another... probably)

Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

Sparkly bangles? (anything colorful... do tanzanite bangles exist?) Lockets of limited creepiness (is subtle creepy a thing?).
