Can confirm. Got my first tattoo during a bad time. Now I keep getting more lol.

I feel like they somehow made it worse.

I have heard the biggest risk of the surgery is basically “permanent” dry eyes. Might not sound like a big deal but to me it sounds like torture.

What’s the relation of this gif in your post to the static photo? It’s this an ad in the Duolingo app or something? It’s hard to make the connection to that. And this part of the gif is small and in the corner. All you need next time is a bit more of a description!

I clicked on the post instead of scrolling by and I am still incredibly confused.

Me irl.

Sad thing is that having a spouse doesn’t at all stop a hell of a lot of people. To be clear, I’m not saying this is limited to men…all genders do this. I’ve personally never understood why. If you don’t want to be with your significant other, break up with them. It’s a zillion times worse to betray their trust and intimacy and then break up anyway when they find out.

Right…the idea isn’t to make it foolproof, it’s just to make a barrier. People generally go for easier targets over ones with a small barrier. If you have two bikes next to each other in public, one with a bike lock and one with no lock at all, the casual thief is way more likely to steal the one without a lock. Bike locks can easily be broken, but they serve as a deterrent.

I deliberately use the print as image feature if I don’t want someone to be able to select text or search the document (like if I’m sending something with sensitive info as an attachment to an email). Most of the time, I have that option disabled so the document can be searchable and text can be copied from it.

It’s difficult, man. It will probably make you happier if you could just forget about it, but brains don’t work that way. Plus some people just seem to be way better at it than others.

A mildly traumatic thing happened in my workplace. I have plenty of functional days, but other days things return to my brain without my inviting them and it makes it more difficult to function. Sometimes I get transported back into time like I’m there.

One thing I read about is the concept of mental “time traveling”. When we remember these things, it’s like we are literally back in that very moment. But that is not what is happening right at this very moment. You are “safe”. You are not back in time being harmed right now.

Is it wise to not trust her anymore if she has proven herself to be untrustworthy? Absolutely.

But in order to free yourself better, you have to first notice that you are time traveling. Then look at things in your environment. Not her, but try to take in all of the sensory input around you. Remind yourself that you are here, not there. Recognize that the only time that exists is right now. Even one second in the past no longer exists and even one second in the future doesn’t exist yet. Work with what is around you now.

Idk if that is at all helpful, just something that I have read about lately. Way fucking easier said than done because I still struggle.

Wishing you well.

I thought this was a Mickey7 post until I read the username.

Man, we need a shitty tattoos community.

When I was a lad, I ate four dozen eggs every morning to help me get large.

And now that I’m grown, I eat five dozen eggs so I’m roughly the size of a barge.

Is this a real image or an AI image? Granny got that drip.

Localized entirely within your kitchen???

Really don’t need something to make me more depressed, thanks.

Lmao what is this comment? Who shat in your cornflakes this morning?

Very interesting. I had never really heard of this before. Thanks for the info. I’d try it out, but personally I don’t watch much TV anymore tbh. It’s all YouTube videos (ad free with ad blockers and modified apps) with very rarely some free streaming platforms thrown in there (PlutoTV, Tubi, etc.).

So a caveat to this is that digital signal is absolutely shit compared to analog. Back when we had rabbit ears, even if the picture was fuzzy/suboptimal, you could watch the show just fine. Nowadays? If you’re not getting 100% full strength signal, it is literally unwatchable. The audio and picture freeze every two seconds which makes it literally impossible to understand and follow dialogue. Either I get a crystal clear picture and audio or I get an unwatchable mess. There is no in between anymore with digital signal.

Plus, I only seem to get this crystal clear signal from the top floor in my home and near a window. If you have a lower floor or have the antenna a bit too far away from the window, it also just does not work hardly at all. This was never an issue with analog signal for me.

Idk if it’s just me or not. There are a ton more channels overall with the digital signals compared to analog, but it’s frustrating that I only seem to be able to watch them if the signal is absolutely perfect.

Whoa where did you get this drawing of me?

Actually kind of relevant because I seek out issues from mental health providers that are very intermittent so it’s hard to get them to understand what the problem is and how to help me with it. Like they diagnosed me with “depression” because I presented as AAAA but have tried to explain to them that it’s intermittent and not the classic incessant low mood and energy.

Anyway…cue the “sir, this is a Wendy’s” response to this comment lol!!
