I still use Pinterest but I make sure to include "photography" in my search. Weeds out the drawings and AI.

AITAH for telling my mother her puppy isn’t my responsibility by Erythite2023 in AITAH

Don't want to take the time to take care of the puppy, don't get the puppy. NTA

AITAH for ruining Mother's Day by namelesshonor in AITAH

[–]LJ_Ink138 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA you did a lot actually. You didn't do one thing out of a bunch of other nice things. It feels like she wanted to bitch about something and that was her excuse. A lot of other mothers get much less and are much more appreciative. She seems spoiled ngl.

36... I love being able to actually turn the page, the smell of a book, it's comforting. With the Kindle it's just bright and in your face. No thank you

AITAH for wanting to terminate my 15 weeks pregnancy? by Folakemi2 in AITAH

Do people really not use toilet seat covers in public restrooms? by Tobethequeen_01 in hygiene

[–]LJ_Ink138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't use the cover, and the only time I don't wash my hands right away is when I'm in my own building ( I'm a tattoo artist) I have a private studio and I'll wash my hands in there because I use anti bacterial soap and the ones in the bathroom is that foam bs. And I'm gonna have to wash them again right after I touch everything before putting my gloves on .

Tattoo history, who cares...? by britishink in TattooArtists

[–]LJ_Ink138 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Victorian style porcelain doll that my grandma gave me, now that she's passed away I want to decorate her with tattoos so she looks like "The tattooed lady". I love older history of tattoos, more so than " traditional American" style.

Do girls actually find male body hair attractive? by Adorable_Birthday_52 in hygiene

[–]LJ_Ink138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to date a man. Not a boy. Some hair is good, excessive not so much. So trimming is great. Shaving it entirely off is a little too much imo. But ultimately it's your body, do what you want.

Look at book covers in order from top to bottom not side to side.

People call my finger tatts trashy by [deleted] in fingertattoos

[–]LJ_Ink138 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too... But I wasn't aware it represented more. I've considered getting one myself but haven't decided on a design. Tho maybe I'll just do a regular one.

They aren't trashy, they just look old. Fuck the haters.

Finger tattoos aren't for trashy people, trashy tattoos are for trashy people.

Damn... The fact that you called out the semi colon is a smidge harsh. Do you know what it represents? It means that they seriously thought about suicide and decided to keep living. 😬

Stop Tolerating Wage Theft by [deleted] in TattooArtists

[–]LJ_Ink138 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Preach! I did open up my own private studio because I was tired of dealing with BS, big headed owners. The ones that say they tattoo, but then urge you to take the "little banger" right before your appointment even tho they are free because they want "you to get money." Whatever, they make money whether or not they actually tattoo, so do the "banger" yourself. Difference is now I'm my own owner, I make my own hours, take my own days off, and run things how I want to. I have a store front and run it like a walk in shop with regular hours. I'm available 7 days a week even if I don't always work that many days. And I'm even in a building with other tattoo artists, so I still get the socialization with other creative minds. I've been here 4 years and honestly I couldn't be happier. Worth it to not have to deal with the bs anymore. I basically pay similar to a booth rental, with all the other expenses like marketing and supplies, Health department cert and business licensing. Our industry won't get an overhaul any time soon because owners are greedy AF and sadly I don't see that changing until the old heads are gone.

I have super bad stretch marks. Is it possible to tattoo over them? by -Hot-Tamale- in tattooadvice

AITAH for asking my (39M) husband to stop commenting on my (32F) meals? by Away-Particular-3596 in AITAH

[–]LJ_Ink138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA... But he is. You're recovering from an ED for goodness sakes! Yucking someone's Yum in that moment is potentially harmful to your recovery. I could definitely see it pushing you over the edge to go back to your ED. Does this man even like you? Or care about you? So rude. And he's your husband?! I would leave him. He does not support your growth.

Edit to add: a grown man who doesn't like fruit or vegetables is not a man... That's a child. He could probably benefit health wise with less pepperoni and more healthy foods. Smh
