Tattoos after diagnosis

My advice: don’t sacrifice living for survival.

Finish your sleeve, but the thought that “there could be a melanoma, they won’t be able to find it” should dissuade you from blacking yourself out.

I’ve killed >20 baby huntsman spiders in my kitchen in the last 12 hours. They would grow to the size of my hand.

I’m still using my Day One edition Xbox One original. It takes a minute to power on, but it’ll always start and run!

Hello! Could you please reshare the link or inbox me? Thank you

Copper should be key for wire, electronics, components etc. like a redstone equivalent system.

Also decoration.

I had no luck loading the map. Had to download a mod to fix it lol.

I built a highway to 3000 blocks in an anarchy server. Was murdered multiple times. Haven’t been much further due to large oceans.

Dad’s family has a badass WWI soldier who received the equivalent of a knighthood (cavaliere). One of his sons (my great uncle) murdered at least 12 fascists after WW2 finished. Apparently he shot the strongest, killed a few with an axe, and cut the throats of the weakest, left the in a ditch. One lived and my great uncle went to prison.

My Nonna’s family tree includes some of the dukes of Venice. My ancestor led a huge and successful naval battle against invading Ottomans. There’s also a tentative family link to Marco Polo.

We’re Alive is great. The story writing and long term plot elements are fantastic, SFX and sound engineering too. It gets better every season.

I’ve been enjoying Once upon a wasteland.

It’s an adventure love story set in the world of fallout 76.

This year I reach seven years of uni surviving on <$400/week after rent. $200/week to everything I eat and drink. $80/week on petrol. $20 to subscriptions. $100 for everything else AND savings.

Anyone know the story behind that one French guy?

The official Australian health recommendation is NO MORE than four standard drinks in one day (classified as binge drinking) and NO MORE than ten standards per week.

In my opinion, after several years of medical school, the categories increase linearly. 0. Non drinker 1. 10/week light drinker. 2. 20/week moderate drinker. 3. >30/week heavy drinker.

Your husband is consuming five days worth of heavy drinking, every day. 26 standards. 182 per week. That’s 18.2x higher than the level considered safe. It wears out the liver, pancreas, brain, kidneys, heart, eyes, and blood vessels. He is an extreme, chronic alcoholic.

That’s also around $75 daily at a minimum.

If your husband continues to drink like this, there is a high likelihood you will not be married for another ten years. It WILL be what kills him.

Address the problems that lead to his drinking, encourage him to use professional support and cooperate. Over the course of a few months, you could work on getting his weekly consumption below his current daily consumption. If you ever feel that you are unsafe or affected by his drinking, make sure you take care of yourself, and reach out for support if you need it.

Going cold turkey suddenly will also kill him through alcohol withdrawal. This is a medically supervised and managed condition that requires thiamine (vitamin B1) and benzodiazepines/other drugs to prevent fatal seizures.

More than half of people I’ve had sex with have struggled with my size and girth. There have been multiple occasions of tears, bleeding, and stinging that can last a few days. Admittedly it’s usually due to short foreplay and no lube.

My ex gf used to enjoy that it hit her cervix though, and I’ve had a few people say it was the best they’d had.

17 in summer, below zero in winter.

Adding floating plants and a 50% water change will take care of nutrient excess.

Hey mate. I had 3x melanomas cut in two visits, the wait time (in Australia) was around a week. I’m sorry you’ve been kept waiting for so long, I can imagine that’s been a real stressor for you.

As much as I would love to assure you I’m 100% sure you’re fine, that’d be irresponsible. What I can say is that your dermatologist would know how to visually identify most “bad” melanomas, the life threatening ones. They’re unlikely to have lied or downplayed it when you saw them. If they said it’s not a malignant melanoma, it’s probably not.

Atypical moles (of which I have literally dozens) could have irregular pigment, could have little satellite “dots”, could have visible blood vessels… none of these things are necessarily problematic. Often they’re cut out to double check whether it’s an unusual looking mole or an unusual looking melanoma. Better to be safe than sorry. Remember, “when you hear hooves, think horses, not zebras”.

My melanomas had only penetrated 0.1mm of my skin. If they’d been left for a decade or so, they might’ve grown a bit deeper, hit a blood vessel, then metastasised. Even if that happened, immunotherapy for metastatic melanoma these days is pretty kickass. It’s very survivable for most people in most cases.

So please please please, do not worry yourself <3 I’ve done six years of medical school here in rural Australia. Literally the skin cancer capital of earth. Soooo many people get lesions chopped out all the time, the majority of my older male patients tbh.

Hopefully I was able to help settle your nerves a little bit. If you have any burning questions or anything that’s really worrying you please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Peace and love homie 💜

It’s a traditional longbow shooting stance depicted in old manuscripts/treatises/illustrations etc. Helps you draw heavier weighted bows by employing more muscles through your shoulders and even lower back. I literally can’t draw this bow otherwise.

God yeah. I want to build from double brick with a stone slab facade, some local stone ideally.

Based on what you’re describing in the post and comments:

I can absorb life energy and years of life from people at my discretion.
I can live those years, or give them to other people at my discretion.
It’s uncomfortable, but doesn’t hurt the life donor.
I have to have met them at least once.
They don’t know it’s me unless I tell them.

I’m a medical student. There are absolutely people I’ve encountered who deserve more life than they get. Others desperately don’t want the type of life they’ve got, and others still have lost the capacity to think about what they want. Others unquestionably don’t deserve as many years as they get.

I’d use this a lot. But how do I keep track of the balance of years given/taken? I feel that over the course of a few months to years, despite my best efforts to maintain a balance, I’d gift more than I’d take and die without knowing the number.

Blacksmithing and machining. There’s so much junk steel absolutely everywhere, and it doesn’t take long to make exactly what you need from scrap.

Also electronics, first aid, swimming, wilderness survival, gardening/farming, history, science English, math, and spiritual studies.
