do you think the appendix envies the earlobe?
hear me out. both simply dangle off of a larger, more important structure. but the appendix, we call her an organ. and because of this we expect great things of her. and we’re disappointed when she seems to do nothing in particular.
but imagine one day the appendix learns of the earlobe. no one calls him an organ - the earlobe is content to simply dangle, enjoying the breeze and the sights without anyone mocking him for uselessness. and further than that, we embellish him. poke little holes for jewels and charms.
it’s only reasonable that the appendix gets a tad jealous. that she wants to be more like her dangling counterpart above, humble but loved, soft but shining. and perhaps she tries to pierce herself, to mimic his piercings.
but in trying to be like him, she forgets herself. forgets that no one will notice her shining in her dark cavity. more importantly, she forgets that she holds so much within her that the earlobe does not. and when she pierces herself, she ruptures. she spills.

My earring holes itch... I don't normally wear earrings, but I decided to wear the same pair two days in a row and now the holes itch. Idk what causes this but it happens literally all the time for me
Sir Anon
Huh. That’s interesting.
Maybe you’re allergic to the metal used in the earrings?

This is the Buddha for October 2nd. I mean Buddy.
I've drawn Buddies based on figures from the other big religions in the past, and the Buddha was the only one left. I don't know too much about Buddhism, to be honest. The main source I have is the innacurate manga biography by Osamu Tezuka, which is more of a personal fantasy narrative than a historical person's biography, or a religious story.
Some interesting things I remember, though, is how Siddhartha didn't know suffering existed until he was like 16, since he was so rich, how he has the droopy earlobes because he used to wear heavy earrings (see, the being rich thing), and how he spent his later years being very sick, which is why he's usually shown reclining. It's quite a contrast from the idea we have of an enlightened person not suffering from disease despite their advanced age.
It makes for some interesting iconography, although I'm not going to pretend I know anything else about it.

What Causes a Keloid on Ear?
Keloid scars commonly form after piercing and may develop in either the lobe or the cartilage of the ear. In some patients the trauma of piercing may set off the keloid development, while other patients may react to the type of metal an earring is made of. Whatever the cause, the keloid occurs when the body produces an overabundance of collagen!

What is ear lobe repair, and why might someone need it?
Earlobe repair is a cosmetic procedure designed to correct issues with the earlobes that can arise from various causes. At Clinique Internationale, renowned for its expertise in cosmetic and reconstructive surgeries, patients seeking this procedure can expect a solution tailored to their unique needs. With state-of-the-art facilities and experienced professionals, Clinique Internationale offers unparalleled care in both Navi Mumbai and Pune. But what exactly is earlobe repair, and why might someone need it? Let’s delve into the details.
What is Earlobe Repair?
Earlobe repair refers to a series of surgical techniques used to restore the appearance and functionality of the earlobes. The need for this procedure often arises from issues like torn earlobes, stretched piercings, or other forms of trauma. Whether due to accidental tears, excessive stretching from large gauge earrings, or congenital issues, damaged earlobes can significantly impact one’s appearance and self-esteem.
The repair process generally involves:
Assessment and Planning: A thorough evaluation of the earlobe is conducted to determine the extent of damage and the best surgical approach. This assessment is crucial to ensure the most effective repair.
Anesthesia: The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, making it relatively comfortable with minimal discomfort for the patient.
Surgical Repair: The damaged or stretched area is surgically corrected. For torn earlobes, this usually involves removing the damaged tissue and carefully stitching the earlobe back together. For stretched piercings, the surgeon might use techniques to reduce the size of the hole or reposition it.
Recovery and Aftercare: Post-operative care involves following specific instructions to ensure proper healing. This includes keeping the area clean, avoiding heavy earrings or other irritants, and attending follow-up appointments.
Why Might Someone Need Earlobe Repair?
There are several reasons why someone might seek earlobe repair:
Accidental Tears: Earlobes can tear due to various accidents, such as catching an earring on clothing or a sudden pull. Such tears can be distressing and impact one’s daily life.
Stretching from Earrings: Over time, wearing large or heavy earrings can stretch the earlobes, causing them to become elongated or even develop large holes. This stretching can affect appearance and comfort.
Congenital Issues: Some individuals are born with naturally elongated or irregular earlobes, which can be corrected for cosmetic reasons.
Trauma or Injury: Any trauma or injury to the earlobe, such as from sports or accidents, might require repair to restore normal function and appearance.
Cosmetic Reasons: Some people may simply want to enhance the look of their earlobes for aesthetic reasons. This could include fixing asymmetrical earlobes or correcting previous piercing placements.
Recovery and Expectations
Recovery from earlobe repair is relatively straightforward. Most patients can resume normal activities within a few days, though it’s important to follow the surgeon’s advice on post-operative care. This includes avoiding any activities that might strain the earlobe or cause irritation.
Patients should expect some swelling and discomfort initially, but these symptoms typically subside within a week or two. The final results of the procedure may take several months to fully manifest as the earlobe heals and settles into its new shape.
Conclusion
Earlobe repair is a valuable procedure for those dealing with torn, stretched, or otherwise damaged earlobes. Whether due to accidental injury, long-term stretching, or cosmetic desires, restoring the earlobes can significantly enhance one’s appearance and confidence. Clinique Internationale, with its branches in Navi Mumbai and Pune, offers expert care and cutting-edge treatments for individuals seeking earlobe repair.
If you’re considering earlobe repair, don’t hesitate to reach out to Clinique Internationale to schedule a consultation. Their skilled team will guide you through the process, ensuring that your earlobes are restored to their optimal condition.

So, Apollo and jewellery!!
I want to start off by saying that Apollo (or any male god, really) wearing jewellery is not a common occurrence in the ancient greco-roman art forms. So there's not a lot you can get, but I've put together whatever I've found so far.
On the vase paintings, you'll find body chains across his chest and there's bracelets too:
^ He also has a leg bracelet in this one
In this painting, along with a body chain and a bracelet, there's a thigh band and a finger ring as well.
Then we have waist belts. I did entertain the possibility of this being an embroidered belt. However in the first image, the belt is gilded with gold, so imo it's meant to be a belt with gilded gold, if not made entirely of gold.
In this Etruscan painting representing Apollo going to/coming back from Hyperborea on a swan, he's wearing necklaces.
Apollo wearing a necklace and an arm band seems to be a fairly common sight in the Etruscan art (so Aplu, technically ig), as seen in these two statuettes:
and some Etruscan mirror arts:
Now moving onto the diadems! A diadem referred to something you could tie your hair with - it could be a ribbon, a wreath of fresh leaves, or a jewelled wreath/head piece - it's the last one that I'm counting as jewellery. Diadems like the one Apollo is wearing below were usually worn by noblewomen.
You can also find depictions of Apollo with a jewelled wreath on his head. They resemble a laurel wreath, but they're made of gold, and have gems embedded. Here's a statue for example:
There are also Roman frescos and mosaics that show you what it actually looks like in color.
And here, you can see not just a gold diadem, but also bracelets on both his hands as well as anklets on his legs:
And there's what seems to be earrings as well? But honestly I'm not that sure, it could just be a damage on the fresco (even if that's the case, we can still appreciate the winged eyeliner amirite)
There's also this fresco of Apollo judging a beauty contest between Venus and Hesperus. Here he is not wearing a gold wreath, but there is a gold band upon his head:
And unlike other pieces of jewellery, you'll find literary references as well for Apollo's diadem:
"When Apollo was born, Zeus equipped him with golden headband and lyre and gave him also a chariot of swans to drive" – Alcaeus, Hymn to Apollo (trans. David A. Campbell)
"Apollo puts his hair in order by shaping his flowing locks with soft foliage and braiding it with a golden diadem." – Virgil, Aeneid 4 (trans. Ingo Gildenhard)
"...he fastens bay about his lyre and the woven brilliance of his coronet, and ungirds his breast of the pictured girdle..." – Statius, Thebaid 6 (trans. J. H. Mozley)
"But you will say, Phoibos has a goldgleaming diadem." – Nonnus, Dionysiaca 4 (trans. William Henry Denham Rouse)
[Inscription]: "Apollo the mighty, Lord incomparable of the Diadem, who hath set up statues of the Gods in this kingdom" – Ammianus Marcellinus, History 17 (trans. John Carew Rolfe)
[Inscription]: "Mighty Apollo, seated upon truth, Lord of the Diadem, who hath gloriously honoured Egypt as his peculiar possession" – Ammianus Marcellinus, History 17 (trans. John Carew Rolfe)
And that's pretty much everything I've come across so far. I was a bit surprised at the lack of literary references for the effeminate gods. Not just Apollo, even Dionysus' effeminacy is described by his fair face and long hair and perfumed garments, and there are no mentions of jewellery afaik. But of course, just like with Apollo, you can find jewellery on Dionysus in the visual arts.
#Apollo#“is that an earring or just a very strangely drawn earlobe?” <- me looking at some of the vase paintings#and it was indeed a weirdly drawn earlobe everytime#lol#also I was internally giggling when I was zooming in on Apollo's finger ring in that one painting#i know rings as symbols of betrothal wasn't a concept in that time period but-!!#i couldn't help but think “ooooh who gave him the ring? 👀”#also anyone who knows more about ancient greek jewellery please tell me if men wore body chains at all??#because I couldn't find anything to support that historically#but in the paintings several male figures wear it so it couldn't be coming out of nowhere right??#mine#apollo info#jewellery

If Zoro ever gave Luffy one of his earrings as a love confession, Luffy would like, instantly try to put it on even though he doesn't have his earlobe pierced in any way. Luckily, Nami takes the earring away from him before he can do something stupid and they have to sit him down to do it for him because otherwise he'll probably make a whole bloody mess on the floor.
#although zoro definitely pierced his earlobe himself that way#directly stabbing the earring in his ear like a champ and a fucking idiot#he was drunk#luffy is all happy when he finally gets to wear the earring tho#it makes him feel happy fuzzy inside#also it does heavy damage to zoro's brain#one piece#roronoa zoro#monkey d. luffy#zolu
