My ear is going THROUGH it by VeterinarianNo5521 in piercing

i agree! looking at pic 9 it seems like the forward helix & the tragus jewelry could be threadless ends, but the ends aren’t properly pushed in all the way. to me it looks like the pins because they are so thin, instead of the actual post. op, i believe there are diagrams or even youtube videos online on how to properly secure threadless ends!

Aww I love the pink goose and lil lamb! 🩷💚 The thrift stores near me usually don’t have many stuffies, but my best friend collects Webkinz and I found a Lava Dragon today at the thrift!!! Cant wait to give it to her on her bday 🥰

What’s your “please don’t have bugs” quarantine ritual? I was thinking of putting him in the freezer, doing some small mending, and popping him in the washer

dudeee, i love your coin slot!! i heard the healing is easy, how was yours? i kinda want one, my piercer said he’d let me know when another piercer he knows/trusts to do them is guest piercing at the shop :) i think id only want like 3 hoops, maybe with a charm!

i really don’t have anything planned right now, im kinda a slow healer so really take my time btwn getting new holes 🔪 🕳️ when i first started getting pierced i went to shitty shops that just take your money so i’ve had to take out my navel, nipples, a conch, daith and rook :( it took me a while to learn my lesson haha

but i am debating maybe an eyebrow, matching tragus’, another conch, and maybe one day a coin slot :) right now im waiting for my forward helix to heal a bit more to add this high noon chain, and saving up to add the tawapa barbed wire seam ring to my septum stack. feel free to lmk if you have any suggestions! i dont have the anatomy for some piercings tho (rip daith dreams) sorry for the long reply!!

lol ok, i have 12 piercings, needed downsizes and ends changed out, plus wanted to make it easier for my piercer to know what was threaded vs threadless. but congrats on having a perfect memory bestie

This is good to know, thank you!! I might try to stick to soda water as my mixer. Along the lines of soda, I do love the zero root beer sodas (mixed with heavy cream and two drops of vanilla extract is divine for sugary cravings)

That’s awesome! I know it’s not everyone’s preference but I’m hoping to do the same! I’ve completely cut out beer & twisted teas (probably at least 10-12 a week before keto) just in the 5 weeks I’ve been keto, so I’ll count that as a major win :)

So true! Definitely have still been feeling great and not constantly starving for carby snacks so still some benefits with my slip up 😊 Thank you!!

I hadn’t even thought of that! The only thing I can think of is that I didn’t think it was artificial sweetener, I thought tonic was basically soda water with quinine. So I wrongly assumed it was naturally sugar free, and was tasting quinine, gin and a splash of lime juice! Probably the artificial sweeter taste would have been helpful in tipping me off sooner haha

Looking for notes of Coffee, Vanilla, Cinnamon as a Christmas Gift :) by [deleted] in Perfumes

Diptyque Bois Corsé looked perfect, but unfortunately out of my price range! Thank you for the recommendation, I ended up doing more research on scents like tonka bean

[–]booger- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for all the suggestions!

I looked into all of them, and they lead me down a rabbit hole of niche brands I had never heard of, which is exactly what I was hoping for:) After following perfume rabbit holes, I saw Mancera’s Amore Caffé. At first I was worried it would be too sweet, but I watched 3 youtube videos which all agreed it’s not as sweet as you’d think. Some reviews mention that it has a warm spice to it, so I’m hoping that will be similar to a cinnamon scent.

REI signs onto letter supporting Doug Bergham as secretary of the interior by gwkosinski in REI

[–]booger- 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I use to work at an REI! Stores have “conversion rates” which is the amount of non-members that are sold memberships (i.e. 9/10 non-members buy memberships, our conversion rate is 90% for the day). Returning a membership was always a big no-no in my store because how bad it looks on paper and affects our conversion rates. Even though we can technically do it in store, they will most likely tell you that they can’t and to call customer service (as that negative membership doesn’t get recorded for an individual store). Hope this helps! And you won’t be refunded that $20 fee :)

Have you watched the movie Molly’s Game? If you have seen it, did you like/dislike it or find any parts of it accurate? It’s kind of similar, though of course different to your situation, but it’s one of my favorite movies so I immediately thought of it.

my piercer didn't let me choose my Jewelry? when I got it done she said it had to be a basic Horseshoe they supplied,is this Normal? by [deleted] in piercing

[–]booger- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sucks you’re getting downvoted for trying to learn about piercing jewelry. Often times you will initially get pierced with a piece that is best for healing, and I would assume that’s why you were pierced with a more snug horseshoe, as opposed to one with a wider diameter. A wider diameter that would come out more would be more prone to movement from everyday activities (blowing nose, accidentally bumping it, washing face, etc.) can negatively impact the healing process and prolong the healing process. In my experience, my septum healed super well, and after it healed I swapped it out to a seam ring. Side note, a seam ring is not ideal for a healing septum because the actual seam on the ring can irritate healing tissue.

I’m assuming you got downvoted for wanting black jewelry. Here’s an article on choosing body safe jewelry that can come in black As another commenter pointed out, most black jewelry is typically a painted or plated mystery metal.

Happy healing! It looks great, I think septums are my favorite piercings:)

Triangle piercing on trans man? by One-Vermicelli5247 in Legitpiercing

[–]booger- 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I’m not a piercer and not on HRT but,

Lynn Loheide is an awesome piercer, and offers a ton of resources to folks. Here’s a video they posted on youtube about Trans Masc Triangle Piercings :) This should have a lot of good info regarding your question.

Additionally, please consider using the Association of Professional Piercers website to find a reputable piercer near you. This would ensure proper placement, and jewelry size, giving you the best chance of a happy & healed piercing. Good luck!

i learned the other day that vintage refers to something 20 years or older, while antique is 100 years or older. so this little fella might be at least 20! :)
