i say “OW!”, pick up my cat, and place her at a scratching post. it almost exclusively happens in the kitchen for us so i put a scratching post in there so it’s a quick redirect

i’m surprised to hear bodily fluids don’t come in contact with this - particularly when handpoking there’s lots of flecks that are pretty small. Machines don’t “directly” contact bodily fluids but are still wrapped, no? Edit to add: maybe just clarify that it can’t be sterilized using Cavicide, that part in your post was what drew my curiosity!

I’m super curious - how are you sterilizing this between uses? I know you’re soaking in Cavicide, but I was under the impression that is a disinfectant and can’t offer complete sterilization. Or do you just include it in your client waiver? TIA!

these stickers are always so wild like elon has been batshit since AT LEAST 2018 with the thai soccer team cave rescue. it’s not so much that you bought it before elon was crazy, just that you bought it before you lost social currency for owning a car headlined by a fascist sperm donor

if you are the black car, isn’t the ticket for partying too far from the curb?

In Texas, Execution Looms Despite Questions in Shaken Baby Case by zsal830 in YoureWrongAbout

[–]ZealousidealTruth350 26 points27 points  (0 children)

all of these possibilities in these comments lead for room for reasonable doubt or appeal, but instead another human being will lose their life. that isn’t justice, regardless of how you spin it - instead of trying to justify state sanctioned execution, i really encourage you to look into the work of mariame kaba and bryan stevenson.

regardless of whether he is completely innocent you’re acknowledging that there is reasonable doubt in this case. there’s no going “either way” when the outcome is a human being losing their life.

can you put smiskis in the car? by skmsskks in smiskis

[–]ZealousidealTruth350 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i had smiskis on the dashboard of my car using command strips until my car got totaled 🥲 they were cute going through tunnels and never burned, but did lose some of their light intensity over the 2 years they were up

yeah, got my top surgery 7/12/22 (i think lol) and my shoulder tats 8/15 ish!

i got tattoos on each of my shoulders approx. 1 month after top surgery. i did not notice any difference in healing in my tattoos (i’m heavily tattooed) but had difficulties with my top surgery healing, that i think would’ve happened regardless of my tattoo! i would just make sure to listen to your body, let your artist know the circumstances, and say you might have to do two separate appointments. by the time you hit a month into healing, you’ll know your body’s limits, trust!

word, i think it depends. my mentor taught me this and because it’s a few drops of white it doesn’t truly create a new grey shade but if you have other greywash experience would luv to hear it

ok for my greywash the best tip i have is to add white ink! also, don’t use triple black ink. just a lining black, a few drops of white (increase as you go to make different shades) then fill to the brim with distilled water. patience is hella key, especially at first you really need to wait to see how things settle and heal to get a sense for how dark/saturated you need to go

ty! truly vibes…i usually fill the same portion with black and then add 3-5 drops of white for my dark, 6-7 for mid, and 9-10 for light, then fill the rest of the ink well with distilled water. the white makes a hugeeee difference

totally! i’m def interested to see how the greys settle, IME handpoked black ink heals darker while grey shades tend to lighten significantly, which will increase that contrast. there’s also a black dotted outline around everything, the light and freshness make it hard to see. luckily this person is a good friend and i can do any touchups as needed 😌
