      I read that the word "Asian" does not refer to South East Asia (e.g., China) in the UK (like it does in the US).

      Good point. Maybe they use it in a general sense meaning middle easterners too. It is however, extremely dishonest to say "an asian has commited a crime" when it was a middle easterner, because they're deliberately hiding important information to establish a narrative.

      If you do visit the Uk @Bill Bauer one of the most important accessory to have is an umbrella because it rains a lot. If you visit any of the coastal towns then it's essential otherwise you'll get soaked! I learnt that lesson fast when I moved from London to Brighton....

      This is a huge improvement over Iceland. It rains a lot in Iceland too, but the locals don't use umbrellas as it takes only minutes before there is a wind gust that is strong enough to break an umbrella (as I found out the hard way).
      I am an introvert.

      My introversion also happens to keep me safe.

      I have found the same thing as I live near the sea. When it rains the wind can be quite strong and make using an umbrella quite useless. I have never seen rain falling horizonal until I came to Brighton 4 years ago, it was quite an eye opener and has to be seen to be believed!

      Syringing + Somatic tinnitus from dental work
      :cautious::cautious: @Bill Bauer Being an introvert (a home boy) with good personnel care preventive actions such as brushing teeth so your dentist won't give you TMD, a well balanced natural home cooked meal to help avoid disease, voiding sickness from contact with others so drugs aren't needed, not getting rear ended when driving and getting whiplash, not going to concerts or anyplace where's there's loud noise and avoiding stress in the real world are just a few ways to avoid getting tinnitus.

      Why: Because it's other people who cause one to get tinnitus

      I created a safe environment for myself, only to be the one to give myself tinnitus...

      @Bill Bauer I think it was the industrial world, the makers of your electric toothbrush, telephone and door. There wasn't a tinnitus caution notice of any of these items, was there!!!

      Did my audiologist warn me that a stress hearing test isn't a good idea when I said beforehand that I think I have ASD, TTTS and hyperacusis. Why did she sell me those Zen ear pieces. Why did they perform unadjusted syringing on my ears instead of another method. Why didn't my dentist not caution me about the TMD risks associated with a lower implant. Why didn't my doctor caution me about the drugs that he gave me knowing that I have tinnitus.

      In my case, when I accidentally gave T to myself, I had been trying to help another person. If I were to just mind my own business, I would have been healthy and happy.........
