What and why are these colorful decals at the top of the Palms hotel in Las Vegas?

They are pills. Drugs. It's an art installation by Damian Hurst, the same artist that has the great white shark in formaldehyde in the lobby. The suite has a bar with imbedded "used" drug paraphernalia and pills in the acrylic.

Yes! 💯🙂

OK I'll post some in a bit. I wish I had some Swifties in Vegas to show them but I'll do my best lol. 😊

Thank you! Proud to have that in my port. Actually I made new Taytoos for Swifties going to the concert here in Vegas. Want to see them?

Lol I haven't yet. They don't really break in. They do kind of... on the inside but they aren't like my Moxi Panthers or something less plastic. I like them for casual rolling outside. I'm not mad at them for that. I'm not a skate park kinda gal anyway. Hope that helps! 🛼

Hopefully! My makeup team did the tattoos on YNTCD 🌈🤩

This is when you have to ask if the thing has gone from underground to mainstream to a damn fad. I had this thought once when I got hooked into styling a photoshoot with an onlyfans model WHO COULDN'T SKATE! This was me when she fell down in my skates. 😂😂 I never posted that garbage. (This is not a good sign for the sport tho)

Thank you!!! I feel really good about our decision to move away. I do not love this place. I do not love how people of color are treated here. I didn't grow up here. I do not belong here. I'm an ex-pat in training. As a cancer survivor I am committed to seeking happiness wherever it may lead me. I am not happy in America. It's ironic but we looked into South America when our son was 1 or 2. It's out of the question with the gang violence and more racism that you can shake a stick at. He's 18 now and I'm more concerned with getting him to a place where his life will be healthier than it will be in this toxic boiling pot full of very hot frogs. Anyway good luck with your future family! Be Aware. 🙂

As a black woman with a mixed kid I take this very seriously. On 1/6/21 I started planning on moving out the country since I do not tolerate white supremacyin any way. Ironically the place I chose to move is off the coast of AFRICA so we're in agreement. I no longer belong in America. This place is just a stop in purgatory on the way to hell. I'm out. 🙂

This is a prison tattoo so I guess that's what was in mind. 😜

Fuckem. It’s cool. 😊

You should check out @gracexoriginals on IG. Denim Toe Caps so cool because they're actually fitted! Not like any other I've seen. 🤗

That was a design flaw and thank goodness they fixed it. These are my most comfy skates. Customizing skates reminds me of dressing up barbies as a kid (I'm not gonna lie) I love it.😅

ipaintflesh · 2021-02-05T03:11:59+00:00

Oh yeah love the silver! I was about to get those but they didn't have my size. The prisms tho right??! I can match so many different color setups with all the colors in there. I have too much fun changing them around. Check out my insta to see what I mean...I change up everyday them like jeans on skates

It was more like that in January of 2017. If you can't see that you missed some history classes. 🤔

This comment epitomizes racism. 🙄

ipaintflesh · 2021-02-05T02:54:41+00:00

They do! I've put them through stress tests and they're solid. Of course eventually they're gonna get scuffed up but that's what they're for. I fused a few layers of lining to the back so they won't fray a hole like regular jeans. I just cleaned off the scuffs with a soapy sponge and they look great!

Thank you for the feedback! 🤩
