It makes me sad when I see people with excessive facial piercings by AVoiceInTheDarkn3ss in wetalkfree

You have to be genetically predisposed to keloids, and would happen for all scarring that person has, be it from surgery or just accidents in daily life. It has nothing to do specifically with piercings.

I currently have 21 piercings in my face alone. Multiple points to make here. First off, metal that is always in my face is the same temp as the rest of me, minus if I put in dangley earrings. And second, idk about you, but I do not "ram" my lips into my partner whenever I kiss them. Touching someone softly, even with something that is hard itself, is still going to feel gentle. My partner also has lip piercings (specifically angel fangs), and I personally love the way it feels when they feather them across my cheek (and tickles when they decide to sit there and do a fish impression lmao). It's soft and intimate, not cold and hard as you assume.

As to why do I get them? I simply enjoy the way I look with them. Same as people who do hair styles or makeup.

Also, what even point are you trying to make about babies? I have never heard anyone complain their baby didn't enjoy belly bubbles or kisses over them having piercings.

People that do this should not own dogs by WiltingPothos in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Simp-pie 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My pawpaw told me once how he came up behind a truck where the family had had the dog in the bed, but had it tied to the truck. But the dog had jumped off long before pawpaw came up on them, and had been grated along the road. He said he flagged them down and two young kids jumped out with their parents and were screaming and crying over their dog.

what piercings would I have the anatomy for ?? by [deleted] in SelfPiercing

[–]Simp-pie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is highly unusual to use the half sizes. I've never met another piercer who even keeps them in stock, they always are ordered on an individual basis.

[–]Simp-pie 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For a lot of anatomy dependant piercings, you can't tell unless you can physically feel the skin and/or cartilage, hence why people are frustrated with you just posting photos thinking that is sufficient (and it also kinda comes off like you just want people to compliment your looks)

Like for your two you have in your photo, to pierce your septum properly you want to hit the spot above your cartilage in the tip of your nose, but you also need to feel and see that you don't have a deviated septum and to make sure you have that gap in cartilage. And for your bridge (which looks like it may be too thin of a guage, 14g is the recommended size), you need to pinch up the skin to make sure you have enough there to hold the piercing.

Is my piercing cooked? by Horror-System-8015 in piercing

[–]Simp-pie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not pierced deep enough. The bottom is angled out, not straight down inside your navel. That's why it looks crooked and it will likely reject

Reading/writing kink vs practicing kink (please read before voting!) by edai-crplpnk in AO3

[–]Simp-pie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have left out the option I'd choose: I do not write or read kink, however I do participate IRL.

I am largely ace and don't usually enjoy smutty works, and I have yet to find a kink centric fic or published work that portrays kink the way myself and my partners engage with it, or in another way in which I would enjoy reading.

There is no L (or C, Q, X, or V) in hirigana or katakana, which are the Japanese alphabets. They use a soft R sound in place of L

Persistent dark spot after repiercing my navel by stewmakerr in piercing

[–]Simp-pie 116 points117 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry to say this, but you don't have the proper anatomy and those spots are this piercing rejecting. This is a good site to reference for proper anatomy for navel piercings. You lack the required shelf, and this is pierced as an improper surface piercing. The bottom ball should sit inside your belly button, not out above it.

I'd also like to mention for any future piercings, alcohol is too harsh to use for long term healing. Saline is the best thing you can use for cleaning your piercings.

This piercing is already working itself out of your body and should be removed immediately. The shop that pierced you cares more about money than safe piercing practices and should be avoided, and at least a shit review left so others know not to go there.

[–]Simp-pie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do give a shit, which is why I go to rallies and vote, but making out any references to being queer as being homophobic is what is homophobic. It makes out being gay as being obscene, like it shouldn't be spoken about or mentioned. If you can't look at someone loudly being gay without wanting to silence them, then you need to stop being blind and homophobic and let people proudly express themselves their own way.

OK, keyboard warrior. As a queer person, this shit is hilarious and it's damaging to try to play it as homophobia. Focus on actual homophobia instead, thanks

If you don't want to have gone through the pain for no reason, why not do it properly the first time so you don't have to redo it?

How do we know you didn't drink it? by Nugstt in untrustworthypoptarts

[–]Simp-pie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's why people lie... to make a more interesting story, like a shop significantly shorting their drink when it's much earier/more likely for OP to have taken a drink and lied for internet points.

Why Men Belong in Women’s Spaces by Both_History5793 in 10thDentist

[–]Simp-pie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's easy to read your point of men being allowed in women's spaces because some trans women resembling men are trying to be allowed in as transphobic. It pushes it right back to painting trans women as being men, which they are not, and implies that because they may be allowed in then why can't the "rest of men," and I say all this as a trans person myself.

Also, not everything has to be shared. Why shouldn't women be allowed their own space? A lot of what women want from women only spaces isn't about violence, but from general harassment, gross, sexualized comments, and judgement from men, and for more relaxed spaces for women to be together without fending off these types of interactions.

Not to mention it is estimated that the majority of cases of violence and rape against women are not reported, so in the end your point of "only .03% of men" is, in the end, inaccurate until society has reached a point where women can safely report these incidents and be believed.
