Tried out Lavender for about 3 weeks now. My AE buddy swears by it so figured I'd give teh free version a shot.

The good: it defintely catches some dumb mistakes I make when I'm cranking through sequences. Like when I accidentally leave {{FirstName}} in the subject line or write a 5 paragraph novel nobody's gonna read. The scoring system makes sense once you get used to it.

The annoying part: sometimes it feels like I'm fighting with my english teacher while trying to write. It wants every email to follow this perfect formula and sometimes that just doesnt work for my industry (manufacturing/logistics). Also the constant popups can slow you down when your in a groove.

I do like that it shows mobile preview and gives subject line suggestions. Probably helped my open rates a bit, maybe like 5-6% bump but hard to say if thats just from being more careful in general.

Anyone else use this? Also been comparing it to some other email coaching tools like Instantly's built in stuff. Curious what stack others are running for cold email outreach these days - both on the writing side and the data/enrichment side. Been looking at Prospeo and a couple others for contact data too since my current list is getting stale.

one of my wisdom teeth has been randomly aching for the past few weeks and I think I finally need to deal with it. i've never had them looked at properly because honestly the whole thing terrifies me. every time I google it I end up reading horror stories about dry socket and nerve damage and I close the tab immediately lol.

I need a dentist in Williamsburg or nearby who will actually explain whats going on and not make me feel stupid for waiting this long. someone honest who won't just push me straight into extraction without talking me through the options first.

do you have a dentist they'd recommend? 🙏

I was originally planning to buy a loose diamond from one of the bigger online retailers like Calavera or RareCarat, but I recently came across eterneldiamonds.com while comparing certificate numbers and noticed the exact same IGI stone listed around 10–15% cheaper there.

They seem to have a ring builder and checkout which looks similar to what the bigger sites provide, so I'm not sure if they are associated, but I spoke with someone from their team, and they even sent me a video of the diamond, which was reassuring.

Has anyone here actually bought from them before? Just wondering if there's anything I should be aware of before going ahead, or if this is just normal pricing differences between retailers listing the same supplier inventory.

The site looks legit, but I always like to double-check before spending this much money.
