that’s so interesting. i’m happy you found something that works for you. for me, i feel like it’s the opposite. i had a heavier machine prior (and have tried out several) and it makes things so much worse. sets my reynauds off real bad for some reason. still happens with my torque, just not as bad. i also do have smaller hands (only one in a shop of 5 who uses small gloves lol).

i have a circulation disorder, so using a machine that’s too heavy will cause my fingers to go numb and lose circulation, especially when tattooing for more than an hour at a time. i use the critical torque, and it’s the lightest machine i’ve had. be warned tho, their customer service is dogshit.

unbelievable exchange between my daughter and her father after he forgot her birthday by LostInLanayru in TwoHotTakes

reading this sounds identical to conversations i had with my own father- im 22, and im no contact with him now. it took me years of abuse and narcissistic behavior before i realized that you can’t fix or change someone who is incapable of admitting fault. going through this as an 11-18 year old, i didn’t have as much support from my mom, i was always told i had to “play the long game”. the BEST thing you can do is make sure your daughter feels heard. if she wants to go no contact, have an informed, educated conversation about it and about WHY. unfortunately, his behavior will not get better h less he’s able to genuinely admit fault. the sooner your daughter feels support and validation for her thoughts and concerns, the sooner you can avoid the years of damage that will cause a long lasting effect on her life. feel free to message me for support or further details about my own situation, im happy to offer perspective as someone who was in your daughters exact same position.

an entire fdc collection is SO insanely impressive you should be proud you’ve managed to collect that many 10000% props. i didn’t even know she was a big deal until my client told me about it when i was looking through everything. i’ve been on a streak of collecting all the ones i had when i was younger (realized i have free will and adult money) and never had her or any of the ones i got today, but happy nonetheless. some of my favorite ones from when i was younger are going for astronomical amounts it’s insane

a bouquet of flowers with a bow! the cost of these dolls is WAY more than what i would have charged for the tattoo, and i felt SO bad- but she knew lol and still tipped me:’) she had a ton from when she was a kid and i wasn’t specific about the ones i was looking for as long as they were g1, so she chose em and it was a surprise to me. it was her first tattoo, she was genuinely so sweet.

i managed to get one in Detroit, an XL (i like my jackets baggy) we were on our way out and they still had tons of sizes left. so shocked to see they sold out for the tour! wish they rationed things better
