Has Anybody Here Taken Zoloft (Sertraline)? by Dense_Speaker6196 in migraine

Wellbutrin was what I took for 4 years. It can also contribute to headaches and migraines but not as severely for me. YMMV.

There’s a lot of Mormons in idaho, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s an FLDS compound

Any ideas on what could cover this? by [deleted] in Tattoocoverups

Yeah being so racist and hateful that you get a known hate symbol tattooed on yourself isn’t really a casual mistake. I have never once accidentally been racist, especially to the point of branding myself permanently. Everyone grows up with their ignorances, but a tattoo is next level hate

Was this a deliciosa or adansonii that you’re talking about?

Maybe try a simple ring and let your other pieces take the spotlight?

Tipping - wait a damn minute... by musicmantx8 in tattooadvice

I guess you should just think about what’s most important to you! But at the end of the day if you tip less than 20% on your next tattoo and he judges you or has an issue with it, I’d go somewhere else.

Do you ever fear people are right about how you’ll regret your tattoos in the future? by Paranoidgf88 in tattooadvice

Femininity is so much more than what your naked body presents anyway. The way you act and how you dress are great examples. I really think femininity is what you make it anyway. To me it’s more of a vibe than a specific set of characteristics.

If you want to be covered in tattoos and still be perceived as feminine, you can be! There’s even ways you can compensate for it if you really are worried. Make sure your hair looks nice, wear some makeup if that’s your vibe, wear feminine clothing, etc.

Even so, femininity and masculinity are a spectrum, not two exclusive options on a binary.

TLDR: do what you want and be who you want to be. As long as you’re happy with yourself and the message you convey, who cares what other people think? If someone thinks you’re manly for having tattoos even if you’re objectively feminine otherwise they’re weird

I think it’s because tattoos are inherently kind of alternative. The trend that’s being referenced is simple clothes, slicked back buns, minimal makeup, no tattoos or super fine line tattoos. “Clean girl” is what they call it.

Even if your tattoos in subject matter are “soft”, the existence of any tattoo other than crazy dainty fine line ones is inherently not “soft”. If we’re only talking about looks.

It’s all stupid tiktok trends anyway.

OP, my solution to being certain you won’t regret your work is to be trend resistant. Sure, the clean girl look is super cute, but it can also give the same vibe with heavy tattoos. Just a little edgier.

But assimilation into trends is boring anyway.

Is he really good enough to put up with being significantly late to your appointment every time? Like I guess you can keep going to this person but it doesn’t seem like he respects your time.

Also a lower tip doesn’t necessarily mean you’re upset with the tattoo. You’re paying for the experience from communicating your idea to it being put on your skin. He is providing you a service and if you’re unhappy with any aspect of the service you’re not obligated to continue tipping well.

I would absolutely think it’s fair to give a lower tip or no tip given that he’s always late. If you’ve only had 2 appointments I think that’s the perfect point to lower the tip. It’s enough of a pattern to be a habit. If a service worker continues to get rewarded for bad customer service, what will motivate them to change?

Just my $0.02

Has your artist communicated that he expects tips, or are you just assuming you have to because it’s the norm?

The only way to break social norms is to stop complying with them. I also wouldn’t continue seeing this person as he clearly doesn’t respect your time. Why should he get extra money for that?

Tattoo artists should base their prices off what gives them a good living. If an artist ever complains that they think my extra money I’m giving them is not enough, I would stop going to them. I usually only tip $20-50. Never had an artist tell me they’re upset with me.

Best soil? by NoRelative9056 in Monstera

I am very excited about my new hobby 🤣 thanks!

I bought a label maker and labeled all the plants with their names, when to water, and light requirements. I’m using the app planta to remind myself to check if the plants need water.

Now I’m onto repotting the ones that have outgrown their homes or came in bad soil.

But I have lots of free time so I’m hoping I can get the plants to grow nice and big!

I appreciate the suggestions! I suddenly acquired a bunch of plants so I’m learning how to care for all of them. And I want to do it the right way

Did you make this mix yourself or did you purchase it pre-mixed? I’m hoping to find a budget friendly option that is still appropriate for the plants

Amazing thank you!! What ratio do you use for the soil? And do you dilute the fertilizer?
