People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. You can replace the addres of .x.com to xcancel.com in the address. https://web.archive.org/save is an option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement (see rule 6)

Oof, I wear one on my finger. Never thought of this... Though, fingers don't swell up as much as what they are referring to lol.
I wear a tungsten ring, which is nigh indestructible. Once I got stung by a wasp between my fingers. I instinctively took the ring off immediately. A few seconds later my fingers swelled like crazy. I think I might've lost the finger if I didn't take the ring off in time.
Tungsten is brittle though, so at least it can be removed fairly easily. Locking pliers if you want to do it reasonably safely.
Until you accidentally smash it with a hammer
