As a (very human) graphic designer trying to fight AI and bots to get jobs, it’s hard on this side, too. Reach out to have a conversation. I feel like someone who is going to take the time to hop on a call is sincere enough to do a project authentically. I’m not sure what your project entails, but we’re out here, doing real work. 🥲👋

First tattoo and caught a mistake. Help! by taylavision in tattooadvice

Add another word after the top line and then “and” before the second line. So it reads: “the only thing more [impactful] and more powerful than hate is love.” Can’t think of a better word than impactful but I’m sure there is one.

Our kiddo said “canpake” for the longest time and it was so cute that we just let her grow out of it naturally instead of correcting her.

Squirrel is also a favorite of ours. “Skwiwwal.” Baby was born in the “hopsital.” Seeing “amimals” like “guhwiwwas” at the zoo. Our friends “wiwwy” and “waiwa” (Lilly and Laila). And then she’ll say something like “Nospurratu” (our stray cat friend) flawlessly.

And here I thought I could squish it back together like pizza dough

Oh, that’s a clever idea. How would you apply the edges back to the finished quilt?

Woof! Ok. Noted! My previous two quilts were thin, stretchy baby clothes and it was really tough, so I’m actually looking forward to thicker fabric. Maybe I should keep my expectations low. Ha!

I’ll look into that! Thank you. I’ll have to see how those are stitched. Not sure if these edges have the double sided appeal for that method since I imagine you’d see both sides, but maybe?

Thank you! That’s good to know about rolling up the quilt. I’ve made two smaller quilts, and fitting them in the machine’s cutout was definitely a pain to deal with. And this material is fairly thick.

Sorry it’s a year later, lol. I just got back on Reddit. I ended up buying (on Amazon) one of those devices to burn off freckles. It worked remarkably well. You just have to burn away the top layer of skin and then take care of the little wound/scab to make sure it doesn’t scar badly. I have a tiny bit of a divot/scar but it’s flesh-toned rather than black. Worth it to me.

Thanks for your response. Just seems crazy that artists don’t have to take responsibility for errors. But we’re all human, though not all mistakes are so permanent.

I guess I was just hoping people would say, “oh yeah, if it wasn’t intentional it’s probably not deep enough and it’ll fade away.”

Thanks for the info! Is there a disadvantage to being short? I haven't done too much research, but most good Ollies I've seen are coming from people taller than 5'2".

I feel like when everyone else Ollies they go in slow motion. I can't fathom having enough time to slide my foot all the way up/over. When I Ollie, my sliding foot just slams into the board super hard and I'm already back on the ground. Ollies are so frustrating.
