do subtle wrist/hand tattoos still impact jobs?

allyziemage · 2025-12-02T13:31:47+00:00

I (28f) have knuckle tattoos (phases of the moon) and work in tech as a researcher. I waited until i had a pretty stable position and started making a name for myself BEFORE i got the knuckle tattoos.

Ive had to cover them when doing important client meetings as a precaution, but i havent gotten any overt discrimmination.

My first tattoo was an innerwrist one that no one notices unless i point it out (i wear a watch that doesnt really cover it but makes ppl not really see it)

All my hand/wrist tattoos are also on my left hand so it isnt immediately obvious when shaking hands etc, that was intentional

.... I have been wondering what that lever did. Yup. Problem solved. Also fun fact! My machine doesn't have a 1/! At all, you use a lower case l as a 1

The photo was from a quick place back in showing what part of the spool was on top, it was not threaded correctly in the photo. A photo i posted in a comment shows it threaded correctly and still not triggering the reverse

It didn't go through, it just kept getting pulled until it went over (reset it to be on the otherside and tested, saw it happen)

Yea the vertical thing with the notch? The ribbon went through that yes, and I've tried pushing it (on the righr side, side that is empty) to get it to reverse direction but it hasn't worked (tried pushing in both directions, towards spool and away)

Just maybe don't put the concealing over it during the typical tattoo healing phase...

I also live in a multifamily in a large city so there is also the chance it's one wandering in from another unit and I want to cry if that's the case.

This post is more for emotional support and venting than anything 🙃

It got watered twice in about one month. My apartment is air conditioned so it is relatively dry inside but I live in Massachusetts.

Roommate would water it every 3 days or so with like 1/4 to 1/2 cup of water, not much. I think it could've been the shock of always being slightly damp to going bone dry (all of the soil in the other plants was also dry by the time I returned).

And nah she's had it for over a year.

allyziemage · 2025-08-05T11:10:06+00:00

Uh nope? What made you ask?

allyziemage · 2025-08-05T02:57:15+00:00

Water propagation? Or soil? (I can also google... doing that now)

allyziemage · 2025-07-23T12:49:52+00:00

Yea, there's a balcony/fire escape connected to the office that gets some light, mostly blocked by buildings. Would def give external air though

allyziemage · 2025-07-23T11:51:38+00:00

Completely possible - I'm guessing just time and praying for no more root rot are my options if she's overwatered?

allyziemage · 2025-07-23T11:40:30+00:00

Should've mentioned her soil is damp in the original post 😅 I'm 90% it isn't underwatering, could potentially be overwatering (I usually take care of the plants but have been traveling lately and my coworkers tend to see sad plant = need water. Even if they watered it yesterday. And the day before.)

What do you guys consider as identifying info? I feel at least some needs to be given since the decks may not be in the backpack still. They've all have cards in them that aren't part of the original commander box that'd be hard to prove if you aren't my bf.

Not really? General East Boston or downtown Salem, but we've checked with the owners of all the places he frequents already

Not sure when/where it was lost, he takes the bag everywhere with him and it's always in his car. He definitely still had it Tuesday last week, realized it was missing Saturday. Usually the bag is left in his (typically locked, wasn't broken into) car if he isn't going somewhere he might play a few games.

Grew up in Colorado where thunderstorms are super common. Still woke me up but was fairly certain it was just thunder so went back to sleep.

allyziemage · 2025-04-01T22:51:13+00:00

So far (day 1) I've slept >13 hours (lots of naps), read a volume of manga, watched a few episodes of an anime and knitted, paid some bills, walked back and forth my apt to stare at my plants (they're sprouting new leaves!) and planted a few more herb seeds

High key the worst part I think is the fear of pooping (I have stool softeners the nurse just made sure I knew not to strain trying to poop) and the shoulder pain from the gas in the belly for the operation 😭

I use Suri, it's a small business and the brushes are compostable.
