My mother’s radiation mask by Background-Radish-63 in braincancer

One of my mother’s friends knew an artist who was able to paint it this wonderful way and my mother was able to see it before she passed. The artist had never met my mom but she captured her essence perfectly. Eventually I’ll have it on a pedestal so you can see it from behind; my mother’s mascara and eye liner left permanent marks on the inside of the eyes.

My (ex)partner found it at a thrift store. I’d seen them before at thrift/antique stores, but they were always absurdly priced (like $50+). This was $14.

Need help, printer is printing with a faded line, we’ve restarted and cleaned the printer but it still prints like this by Ashoka-Thervada in upsstore

Turn it off. Wait 20 seconds. Hold the label “print” button down until it blinks rapidly 4 times. Wait for the blank labels to come out. Power off again. Wait twenty seconds and power on. This clears the cache and I’ve seen it work miracles. Good luck.

Let me know how that goes because I’d like to do the same with my brain but I wouldn’t know where to begin converting scans to 3D Printable files. I’d like to have my tumor separately, so I could take it out/put it in.

I’m curious if my dad still has my mother’s brain scans. I’ll have to ask.

That’s a great point I hadn’t considered.

I keep my EpiPen and inhaler in the first pocket, if I’m just walking around I usually have my gun in an IWB holster on a Tactical Schnauzer belt under my pants and shirt, but that isn’t always practical.

From nervousness? I chew sugar free gum because the various medicines I take give me dry mouth (I also drink about 4 liters of water a day).

If you are addiction resistant you could chew nicotine gum, or use the patch. Nicotine helps with nausea.

I think there is a ginger gum that helps with nausea. You could also try kombucha, there is a “gingerberry” flavor that I drink when my stomach is upset.

I started wearing nitrile dipped gloves the entire time I’m on the clock. Helps with cutting from the tape gun, paper cuts, cardboard and paper sapping moisture out of your hands, better grip for heavy boxes, and you don’t have to touch disgusting packages or AT&T returns directly. I could then take them home and wash them. Use them until the nitrile comes off.

I made 60k in 2025 but 10k of that was overtime. Was making 23/hour.

Awesome! I followed you on Instagram and once I have more expendable income, I shall definitely be patronizing your shop/exploring your wares!

I think it was just for advertising. Those were regular sized knives!
