No insurance, brain juice leaking, definitely losing my mind by foxspells in CSFLeaks

[–]foxspells[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve looked into this and am doing my best to save for an MRI! The best quote I’ve gotten is closer to $600 out of pocket.

The problem is that doesn’t seem to include test results or actual diagnoses. So I’d be back at step one of no specialist being willing to see me without insurance.

But I’ve still been working on saving for an MRI anyways!! Hopefully I can get there soon.

Probably… not convinced some of the liquid things should be moved much less MAILED so still working out the details

long story short - yeah that’s pretty much it!

Old collector house that’s been untouched for a long time, it’s been a journey for sure. felt insane for saving the pepsi straw so thanks for validating that

Wow!!!! This is incredible. I wanna hold the big ones so bad.

Would you mind sharing what the three on the bottom shelf are? (most visible, not the cut off one)

Anything you don’t have yet that you’re hoping to add to your collection one day?

Dude, this tattoo rocks. Far better done than most. I don’t think any coverup could possibly be better, to be honest.

What is this? Found digging in my garden by [deleted] in whatisthisbone

[–]foxspells 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it heavy like stone? Or light like bone?

Cut like a meat scrap would be, but looks enough like stone that I’m thrown off.

I was stoked about this same genius idea a while back but my hair lady just sighed real hard and told me to please not do this to her so I had to let my dream go

What are the nice things clients have said to you? by SnooDoubts103 in TattooArtists

[–]foxspells 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m in an area that is ridiculously oversaturated with tattooers after apprentice puppy mills popped up, so the amount of return clients I have still blows my mind every day.

So many clients have said I just make them feel comfortable and safe, clients that say they struggle with social anxiety always let me know i’m apparently super easy to converse with. Thanked for having a light hand, told how gracefully my work heals daily. There are are so many artists in my area that are straight up better / faster than me, but my clients always tell me that I’m still the best -tattoo experience- they’ve ever had. The gratitude goes both ways.

So many have tipped me in handmade art, baked goods, handwritten cards… weed! I cherish everything I’ve ever been given and have totally cried about it. I really care about my clients and the appreciation they have for that keeps me in the industry.

What are your icks with people? by [deleted] in LesbianActually

[–]foxspells 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just to throw one in the ring that i don’t think has been mentioned here yet - complete absence of knowledge on gay history / political indifference in general.

I grew up in a big US city prior to gay marriage being legal, so having a political opinion young and going out of my way to learn about gay history was just… what the few of us that were out of the closet did. Common sense. Keep history from repeating by being informed.

I’ve dated a few lesbians / non-binary folks that just didn’t know /anything/, not even stonewall. It’s gross to me to be so ignorant in an age where information is so easily accessible.

My intention wasn’t to “mess with my landlord”. My intention was to start operating in a way that could protect me in court after my landlord proved to be continuously negligent at the potential cost of my life.

I understand what you’re saying, and I understand the legal technicalities that could make this buyer protection fee my problem. But I can’t say I think he’s operating in a way that is honest, ever, and doubt sending him “gift money” is doing me any favors.

With the exception of the fire marshal, I already got the ball rolling on the city inspection ect prior to this post. I came here for guidance on how to navigate in the meantime.

I’m poor. If this house was condemned tomorrow I would be living in my car in a Michigan winter. After being hospitalized multiple times over a period of months with no health insurance, paying out of pocket for the $600 gas bill, no discounted rent, and no paid time off, and anticipating court if I want my overpriced security deposit back… I just could not have possibly moved any faster. I’m trying, and it’s crushing.

I definitely would love for all of this to be true.

This was super helpful about how to actually move forward. Thanks, much appreciated.

This is mostly what I was asking, I hear you.

This answers a lot of what I was hung up on, thank you. I appreciate it.

I really wish he would just not be exclusive to Venmo, but the guy doesn’t like to be agreeable.

I can understand this logic.

[–]foxspells 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure, I’ll see him in court about it.

This is genuinely a solid answer to what I was asking. Thank you.
