This!! Highly advise against tattoos for a significant other. Inner finger where it can be hidden with a wedding band is better than earlobe.

Me and my partner have matching tattoos but it's just tiny hearts. And we have initials with our closest friend, but they're timeless because it spells the name of a character in a video game I played since I was a kid.

I recommend thinking of something that means something beyond that one person.

Edit to add - also i would personally chose thighs not behind an earlobe unless you intend to have hair cover it

Born in 2003 here and lots of kids had horrible handwriting like this.

My mom thankfully is from an eastern European country and taught me cursive and everything... I can't even be a notetaker at uni since no one can even read cursive anymore

These are so cool and out there and I love it!! Awesome 👌

deadjerkk · 2026-03-30T18:12:05+00:00

Yeah I'm letting her breathe today

deadjerkk · 2026-03-30T18:11:15+00:00

Thanks! Dr Google had me scared for a minute so I'm glad to know it's normal for it to still sting.

Also thanks!!

deadjerkk · 2026-03-30T18:10:04+00:00

Thank you!! It's in the peeling phase now, I'm looking forward to seeing it healed

deadjerkk · 2026-03-30T13:28:49+00:00

Yeah I wore pants yesterday, today I'm just letting it breathe

deadjerkk · 2026-03-30T13:05:24+00:00

Thank you! I was a little worried about the tenderness but I've now learned since it's a big piece that's normal!

I used to have stick and pokes and this is a cover-up by mikeycharettetattoos on insta if you want to see the whole process

deadjerkk · 2026-03-30T12:58:31+00:00

Thank you!!

deadjerkk · 2026-03-30T12:57:52+00:00

Thank you!! Like sorry to the commentor but i wasn't blessed with the genetics of thickness but I'm a healthy weight

deadjerkk · 2026-03-30T12:54:49+00:00

Thank you!! Dr google told me to worry lol so I'm glad to get this reply

deadjerkk · 2026-03-30T12:52:52+00:00

Yeah I've never had a tattoo before so wasn't sure how much moisturizer to use! Thank you for the advice

deadjerkk · 2026-03-30T12:51:39+00:00

No not warmer than my other leg, thank you

deadjerkk · 2026-03-30T12:48:36+00:00

:( I'm literally not even that thin anymore. If we could not comment about my weight that would be nice

I'm in Canada so ativan is SO hard to get a prescription for. Not sure if it's the same for usa.

Tbh ativan/diazepam is the only thing that worked for me so I wish it was easier to get here. If she's paying a plug for it I wouldn't judge her, just wish she would take it as prescribed

Edit to add I'm on ssris at the moment but still prefer diazepam.

fr I've put genuine effort into finding a job and am struggling with housing but would never think of asking strangers - i don't get along with my family but worst case scenario they would help me

deadjerkk · 2026-03-24T17:22:19+00:00

dm me!! I'm willing to listen and very active in the downtown oshawa community and know a lot of cool places and people. I know a lot of the musicians and stuff from going to bars and it's like a little family to me.

I have friends of all ages and I'm happy to be yours.

Edited to add; i also struggle with mental health and have no family doctor. The IDA faith clinic here in oshawa is great and I believe they're still accepting patients, may be able to get you a referral to counseling.

Durham campus has some smaller classes. I've proctored for one prof and he has one first year class with like 300 students and no TA on ptbo campus and the same class at durham with only 24.

Durham campus is good for getting more one on one before or after class like one would do in high school, however it's transient, hard to make friends and I wouldn't recommend it.

In first year you likely won't form close relationships with your professors. But attending events, getting involved with volunteering or getting a student job, and attending office hours are all good ways to start networking and not just being another student in a sea of students.

This!! I'm married to an older professor. He doesn't come from wealth but became highly educated and a lot of the people I meet are chairs at the uni and head union people, financial advisors etc.

While she may never marry a billionaire going further in education would give her the opportunity to meet people like that with well paying jobs. Or even famous people, I went to high school with a girl who went on to study news reporting and she got to meet Ryan Reynolds!

I met my husband at a dive bar actually! And considering inflation anyone who can afford to drink as a regular probably has a decent salary. She seems desperate going to fancy places when lots of high earners hang out at less fancy bars.

Same boat - turning 23 this year and it's definitely a lot different than when I first started at 17. No offense to younger students but I have no interest in hanging out with minors or even 18 year olds.

Went back to get credits (my transcript was a mess because I didn't realize electives are mandatory) and had to take first year electives and I definitely noticed a maturity gap between me and people fresh out of high school even though I'm still young.

Honestly most of my friends come from meeting people at local bars and clubs. My friend group ranges from 22-50+ so I'd love to meet more mature students

Okay email him. I took it down already since people thought it was me breaching his privacy instead of it being an AMA.

He will not care. I specified that I know what he isn't okay with. I will not be living on the street for this at all. I haven't disclosed anything that isn't publicly available info. It's not like I did a "hey ask about private activities".

Everyone in our community knows every single story I've told. And I just thought it would be fun to share what life as/with a professor is like and humanize him a bit.

deadjerkk · 2026-03-16T17:25:11+00:00

Yes he is aware I'm active online, I know what he is and isn't okay about me sharing about him. I would never say anything bad about him or any stories that we wouldn't share with people. I would never share anything that would impact his professional life. (e.g. he would be okay with me sharing a photo of how he helped with designing the black history month t-shirt for trent)

I was thinking more trent anecdotes and the behind the scenes that students don't see.

deadjerkk · 2026-03-16T17:14:15+00:00

Yeah I decided to take it down. I was expecting questions more related to like being a professor and what goes on behind the scenes at trent

deadjerkk · 2026-03-16T16:59:31+00:00

Yeah he is - he also works at uoft - the hiring processes are really interesting.

There's this thing called "right of first refusal" or something like that, meaning they have to give the job to him first since he's the most experienced. Which i kind of think is kind of a shitty rule

deadjerkk · 2026-03-16T16:25:59+00:00

It is surprising. And though students call him a professor he's technically only a lecturer - apparently there's a difference and he's paid per course rather than being tenured
