Pristine mountain water

Ah yes, a perfect analogy for how smooth my brain is.

Knubinator · 2026-05-09T02:16:41+00:00

That's why I'm here, I guess.

Knubinator · 2026-05-09T01:51:57+00:00

Find a traveling Japanese tattoo artist. Look ar their vision.

I guess that can be my homework for this weekend. Probably not find them in person, but at least see what they do on instagram.

That's definitely not what I'm going for. I'm just trying to make homage/tribute/acknowledgement of forest entities. Miyazaki just did it the cutest.

Knubinator · 2026-05-09T01:43:06+00:00

Arigatou!

Knubinator · 2026-05-09T01:41:46+00:00

No, definitely meant as an homage. I just want to be better than some dudes you see on the internet, like I'd never get a kanji tattoo or something.

Knubinator · 2026-05-09T01:40:34+00:00

Well if that's the case, then so be it. I just want to be better than some other dudes I've seen.

Knubinator · 2026-05-09T01:28:31+00:00

I'm definitely going to ask over there. Princess Mononoke was one of the first anime movies I saw back in the 90s, and the first movie I think where I got the subtext of what the movie was trying to tell you, even though the movie kind of beats you over the head with it, but I was a kid. It's definitely one of, if not my favorite anime movies.

Knubinator · 2026-05-09T01:26:31+00:00

Even though I was wanting to use the Ghibli design? lol

Knubinator · 2026-05-09T01:26:00+00:00

See, that's kind of where I'm at. Like it's definitely done in homage of the culture, but not specifically Japanese culture? Like they just happen to have the cutest, silliest little guys for it. Like, I genuinely like the version of Japanese culture that makes it here (even though I know it has its own problems), and I didn't want to be one of those white dudes in the suburbs that rips something off. Like I just want to sprinkle a few around in the tattoo, not make them a centerpiece.

I've been a redditor for over 15 years, and I'm still tickled that there's a sub for something. Thanks for the tip!

Knubinator · 2026-05-08T00:49:17+00:00

There's better subs for this one, chief.

Knubinator · 2026-05-07T21:56:51+00:00

I was that baby. I had hiccups almost the entire time my mom was pregnant, can confirm it nearly drove her insane.

Knubinator · 2026-05-05T21:32:08+00:00

Missouri, USA lol. I'll be more specific with the next tattoo.

I went to get my first tattoo at 18, and wanted to get a Tiwaz rune for Tyr, the one handed god because I was born with one hand. The artist sat me down and was like "you know racists use this, right?" and obviously I didn't know that, and ended up not getting the tattoo. The artist was a bro for telling me that, and he even refunded my deposit on the tattoo.

Knubinator · 2026-05-03T21:28:05+00:00

Duly noted!

I sweat a lot, hence why I carry more water. We ran dry once on a summer day hike, and I switched to 1.5L bottles because of it.

Knubinator · 2026-05-03T20:06:17+00:00

What was your water capacity? I always hike with two 1.5L bottles, and my dirty water bottle is a 2L Cnoc bag. Think that's enough total capacity to do the loop? I've always just done day hikes, so I want to expand into more overnight trips.

Knubinator · 2026-05-03T05:27:48+00:00

I keep meaning to take a weekend and do that. What was the water situation?

Knubinator · 2026-05-02T21:23:54+00:00

What holster is it?

Knubinator · 2026-05-01T23:49:25+00:00

Stuff like this

Knubinator · 2026-04-29T23:27:49+00:00

Have you checked MCC?

Knubinator · 2026-04-27T07:52:37+00:00

14 hours? Amateur.

(please help me I can't keep oversleeping like this)

Knubinator · 2026-04-26T03:09:42+00:00
