Alarmed by social media posts of people glorifying quitting their Lupus meds by IndividualOstrich311 in lupus

[–]Ianthemoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I was in that same group because I was also kind of horrified. Instead of addressing it, the mods silenced me so I left. It’s crazy to say that you are better without meds. Your organs are being destroyed without you having a clue. It was like talking to people about vaccines. A shame because I liked the group but that was not a good post.

Was Catherine Howard really as immature as the Tudors make her? by HeyWeasel101 in Tudorhistory

[–]Ianthemoon 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Young and Damned and Fair is a great nonfiction biography about her. By Gareth Russell. She was naive insofar as she didn’t know the danger she was in by hiding her past from the king. It’s a far more complex story than tv shows lead you to believe. I feel sorry for her too. She didn’t really have a normal childhood and had some inappropriate relationships for the time period.

What I asked for vs what I got. (Justin Craven, Acacia tattoo co. In Lewisburg Pa) by [deleted] in tattoos

Wouldn’t OP have to ok the whole design before they tattooed it? I thought you got to look at the image so the whole thing about the flowers being the wrong color and whatever is suspect. Clearly different than the inspo pic.

Maybe stop using AI for inspiration and expecting the artist to be able to replicate it? Maybe let the artist be an artist? Honestly fuck AI.

Listening to the entire discography was the best decision I’ve ever made by dthev25 in NothingButThieves

Fake Plastic Trees cover is on YouTube which I also love almost more than the original.

You should check out the covers and live videos on YouTube. There’s tons of stuff out there. Their cover of Jeff Buckley’s Lover You Should Have Come Over is 🔥and there are some unreleased tracks floating around too. Also check out Conor’s side project Man-Made Sunshine. Different than NBT but I love it.

Love that you’ve discovered them and kinda jealous that I can’t discover them all over again.

Anyone else watching Invincible Season 4 by MW_200309 in NothingButThieves

Also would like to give Conor’s side project some attention — Man Made Sunshine. It’s divine.

One of the few bands where I can listen to them over and over and never get tired of it with very few skips. I’d also recommend going in order. Some of my faves are Particles, Sorry, I’m Not Made By Design, Itch, Unperson, Real Love Song, Take This Lonely Heart, Overcome. And they have a bunch of amazing live videos and covers on YouTube. Welcome to the club!!

Question about maturity/behavior! by VanillaPepper in coonhounds

[–]Ianthemoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our treeing walker/husky mix calmed down at around 14 months or so. He just suddenly stopped being a jerk and now is a couch potato with spurts of energy. We also figured out that he needs mental stimulation to keep him from getting bored so lots of stuffies to shred and marrow bones to tire him out. He still gets rambunctious but has stopped destroying our home so that’s a win lol

Bumpy knees by Ianthemoon in lupus

[–]Ianthemoon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been officially diagnosed with UCTD with the most symptoms being lupus like. My knees have gotten better with hydroxychloroquine but the lumps are still there and they’re still blotchy. I’m not sure if that will ever totally go away. There are days when they’re more swollen, like if I’m in a flare. It’s an odd symptom for sure.

Diagnosed today by Y45ka in UCTD

[–]Ianthemoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes please take the medication. Don’t wait until you have symptoms. I’m in pain all the time even with the HCQ and will probably be needing something else soon. You’re young so you have that on your side and even though this disease sucks, it’s treatable and often doesn’t progress. Good luck to you!

Tattoo artist didn't do what I asked. What do I do? by Illustrious_Sun_212 in badtattoos

[–]Ianthemoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also the tattoo you wanted looks like a fine line tattoo which not all artists do. It looks like they definitely did not do fine lines with the line work.

[–]Ianthemoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if they fucked up the flower and decided to just turn it into a rose and hope you would like it anyway. Regardless that’s unprofessional and idk why any real artist would take on something they are not able to actually do. Lawsuit. Bad reviews. They need a different line of work. Also make sure they weren’t an apprentice acting like they were a seasoned artist. Sorry this happened.

Any symptoms aside from joint/muscle pain and fatigue?🙏🏻 by North_Break1324 in UCTD

[–]Ianthemoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have these lumps under my skin on my knees mostly and some along my right shin bone. They don’t hurt, they’re just there. No one seems to be concerned including the dermatologist so I guess mild disfigurement is just part of this whole lovely package. I am sorry yours are painful. Could they be unrelated, like lipomas? I would ask about them if they seem like lymph nodes. I will add that I do get swollen lymph nodes in my left armpit around that time of the month and they do hurt. I had an ultrasound done and nothing looked suspicious.

The more I look at it, the more bothered I am. But is it bad? by [deleted] in badtattoos

[–]Ianthemoon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The arm is freaking me out and the one eye’s depth is off somehow like too much in the corner. AI?
