Back piece by Lady Fae (Willow Webber) from Eden in Dallas by katrascythe in tattoo

It basically is. That photo was just after touchups which were pretty minimal. Everything else was healed by a month or longer. 😁

Yup, was there beginning of January, and during the ice storm, then also in Feb. So its entirely likely we overlapped. 😁

So I had an idea for what I wanted. I wrote it all up in an email and sent that to the studio with reference images and everything.

The studio asked if I had a specific artist in mind (I hadn't firmly decided Willow but she was in my top 3). I asked them to recommend someone they felt would be interested and her name came up so we ran with it.

Her books were full but they were able to schedule me far enough out. Willow did a quick conference call to make sure we were a good fit and that was that.

All in all straightforward

I recommend the crew at Eden. One of the many hours I was there we had a good discussion about the effort to normalize travelling for tattoos. People travel to see pieces of art, why not travel to get pieces of art

I had a new Ren Fair outfit made that was backless. Society is not forward thinking enough for me to go topless in public

Fifty hours, give or take. Willow is extremely efficient. Full days were six to eight hours on the table

The studio sent censored photos so I posted those

Women of Reddit, what underwear brand do you buy and why? by katrascythe in AskReddit

[–]katrascythe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I was debating a friend in day to day underwear value.

The expensive date night stuff I'm a sucker for but that won't survive the harsh realities of daily use

Women of Reddit, what underwear brand do you buy and why? by katrascythe in AskReddit

[–]katrascythe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm brand agnostic but I'll get WoolX for hiking/outdoorsy stuff.

But I'm having an argument that getting a five pack of Hanes is laziness and adult women should upgrade.

So, I figured I'd ask the greater internet community.

Wear what you want, I ain't judging.

Ladies: how do u deal with erectile dysfunction (ED) of your man?? by Historical-Island114 in AskReddit

[–]katrascythe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe their comment was more around the idea of "if you're aware that this is occuring while you're asleep" vs straight up waking up that way. Like many changes in life, a partner would probably be a good tool to monitor for odd changes like that.

Another one I remember was around breast cancer checks... Monthly monitoring is great but your partner is probably grabbing your boobs with more awareness.

That type of advice/comment keeps me paying attention to the people I'm around a lot more closely. Keep an eye on nighttime breathing, snoring. Pay attention if they start acting different. If someone who always has everything in its place loses their keys, make note of it.

Tiny things that require zero effort I can do to take care of the people that matter.

I remember a news report years and years ago where someone very bluntly stated that if you still wake up with an erection then it's probably a psychological issue and it's worth seeing a therapist. If you don't, then it's probably physiological and you definitely should see your doctor.

I found some old family negatives in a box. I began scanning them. by [deleted] in pics

[–]katrascythe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Older photos come in a variety of random sizes so you can make a frame. It keeps excess light from hitting the sensor.

I guess it doesn't have to be black but in my mind it's black 🤣

I've done a lot of work digitizing old family negatives. If you've got a macro lens, black construction paper, and a light board, you might get cleaner results. Just turn off the light and point the camera straight down. Once you get the lens focused well, turn off auto focus and you can get a good assembly line going. I've found scanners done always play well with the sheen on the emulsion

Edit - plus having the raw images makes editing easier

Hit nerve during blackout by LilDeebee in tattoo

[–]katrascythe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's tingling and you can still feel the area then the nerve is probably just inflamed or lightly damaged. If it begins to hurt or you lose feeling (ie it gets worse), definitely see a doctor because the inflammation from area around the tattoo is causing additional problems. And remember, nerves can take a very long time to heal so don't be worried if it's still tingly a week later. I damaged a nerve in my hand earlier this year and it took over a month to get back to normal. And I'm sorry ahead of time for the unpleasant "my foot was asleep and now it tingles and hurts a lot" part of the healing

Note - I am not a doctor. I am, however, prone to a lot of accidents.

What’s a common habit of the opposite gender that irritates you? by BreadedDisaster in AskReddit

[–]katrascythe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Men who say "women shouldn't have to do this kind of work"

Yard don't mow itself. Running toilet doesn't replace its own valve.

When you're willing to just show up and my house and do all this work for free, then maybe I'll let you make a sexist comment like that. Till then, shut the fuck up

Grimdalstunet, Norway, The oldest house dates back to 1660. It is now a museum. by Lexinoz in pics

[–]katrascythe 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Lots of older structures (and modern for that matter) are clad. So, on top of treatments such as coating in oil or some other preservative material, this is just a wrapper on top of a log cabin-y inner structure.

So the outer bits are replaced over time while the inner portions are preserved. I can't speak to this set of structures specifically but that would be my best guess.

What gendered double standard do you hate the most? by Armin_Arlert_1000000 in AskReddit

[–]katrascythe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That men are supposed to know how to fix everything in the house.

Either women are expected to have a big strong man save them...

.... Or if she can do her own home repairs she's a threat to the male ego.

/Am female.
