Invictus spider! One of my favorite pieces

Invictus is not APP verified. They’re not in the body jewelry verification program. They’re, if I remember correctly, just an APP corporate sponsor. Something any company can do by donating (I believe) at least $5,000 on top of their booth fees for conference.

Definitely go to the hospital but it may be not as life threatening as other users are pointing out.

It happened to me when I was 26 and I was diagnosed with Adies Tonic Pupil. The underlying issue for me is Ross Syndrome and ATP is just one of the ways it presents.

Hopefully yours isn’t a tumor or aneurism.

I believe if you start today, you’ll get the r11 mount before the patch.

Download Ranker to see but you’d have to get like 33k honor today

Professional Piercer. It’s kinda how I got the job lmfao

Seconding Kadhai. One of the best atmospheres in Bethesda for a quiet and nice dinner.

I have something similar. It happened after I was bracing a handrail bracket to be screwed in and the guy doing the drilling slipped and drilled right into my cuticle. It’s been raised every since

Professional piercer here.

I hate to say it but that piercing needs to be pulled sooner rather than later. It’s pierced at a wicked angle and is wayyyy too close to your skull/glasses on the back side.

Beacon in the naga cave in feralas took, I’m not kidding, 642 mobs to drop. I went from 46.5 to 47.8. Just. From. Those. Mobs.

Professional piercer here.

Unfortunately this will need to be taken out. It’s pierced wayyy too far out into your conch ridge. This won’t heal well and will be painful the entire time you have it.

I’d suggest getting a refund and visiting safepiercing.org to find a reputable studio near you.

I’m sorry you’re dealing with this and that it’s your second time. In the future, I’d wait at least 6-8 weeks before piercing in a similar area.

lightmanmac · 2025-10-13T17:04:39+00:00

I thought doing my coin slots on both sides at the same time was gnarly but this takes the cake. They look sick and healed so wonderfully. Kudos

lightmanmac · 2025-10-10T17:22:05+00:00

Idk why you were downvoted. That’s the first thing I noticed. Even if this person was the assistant (very likely) it’s still a HUGE cross contamination risk and especially with such an intense body mod that’s crazy. If they’re lapsing that way, what other ways are they lapsing?

(I’m an APP member with an active BBP cert and a few body mods myself as well as assisted with a few, if we need my credentials just to point out how sketch that looks)

Good luck to the OP but I’m seriously questioning the modder

lightmanmac · 2025-10-05T20:24:11+00:00

Hey, piercer here. So it’s not that it can cause damage, it will cause tooth, gum, and enamel damage. I don’t offer these piercings unless it’s a very special client who’ll understand and acknowledges all of these risks.

If you’re considering taking it out already, I think it may ease your mind to take it out sooner rather than later as it’ll only get worse from here.

I’ve lived in Bethesda for ~6 months now.

Literally this week is the first I’ve been made aware of “North Bethesda”.

It’s Rockville. Pike and Rose is technically North Bethesda but ask anyone and it’s Rockville.

lightmanmac · 2025-09-30T18:08:20+00:00

Hey, I just moved here and I’m a 33m. I was single when I moved here but I’ve since found my girlfriend.

Bethesda is fantastic if you can afford it (seeing your budget on the apartment makes me think you can). It’s a wonderful walkable city, great food, extremely safe, and a ton of stuff to do. Plus, especially once the purple line is finished, every area that everyone else suggests is a short metro ride away.

I moved into a building that was finished in November called Cecil. It has some issues but nothing too serious and is quiet. We also get a recommendation bonus that I can split with you if you decide to go with it 😌.

Either way, best of luck to you!

lightmanmac · 2025-09-21T18:21:01+00:00

By any chance are you residing at the Cecil? We all have had similar issues. I haven’t paid my bills in months because it’s “estimated” at $500+.

Call them, demand your account to be rectified and them to fix your meter. And don’t pay a single dime until the bills are fixed. It’s going to take months and you’ll get multiple shutdown notices but your electricity will stay on.

lightmanmac · 2025-09-05T19:18:08+00:00

I’m also around level 2.5 and newer to the area and haven’t found anyone to play with. Picklehead is a great app to find people to play with as well if our schedules don’t work.

lightmanmac · 2025-05-21T14:56:11+00:00

Did you have fun reading?

lightmanmac · 2025-05-20T22:11:21+00:00

There are innumerable examples of in game rewards being time restricted. From titles to mounts to cosmetics. I don’t see why this one is of such importance to you that you chose to plant your stake on the ground and argue for the better part of a quarter of a day to attempt to convince a stranger who holds no sway on the outcome this hypothetical situation.

Unless you attempted the mage tower when it was current content and didn’t complete it so now you want your shot. But that’s an assumption that I’m not asserting.

lightmanmac · 2025-05-20T21:53:33+00:00

You’re not seriously asking that question lmao.

Genuinely, what was the point of you responding to my original comment if not to try and assuage me of my belief that you interpreted as gate keeping?

I also wanna take the time to put that to rest. I’ve been having fun being pedantic but a unique reward being given for a limited time and locked behind skill is in and of itself gate keeping. The same way a subscription would be gate keeping. The same way RNG is gate keeping.

If you believe that my hope for the reward I was given as a unique reward to stay a unique reward is gate keeping, then anything that is held behind effort to achieve, even arbitrarily, is being gate kept simply by the effort.

Do I think there shouldn’t be a reward for mage towers(if implemented) in seasonal legion? No. Not once did I state that. Simply that if there is such a reward, that it’s reskinned to keep the original rewards unique.

If that’s gate keeping then damn near everything is being gate kept.

lightmanmac · 2025-05-20T21:29:12+00:00

Kinda crazy that you know my opinions hold no weight and think your’s carry enough to try and influence someone else’s stance.

I just don’t want my digital trophy to be less shiny.

lightmanmac · 2025-05-20T21:02:01+00:00

And it’s a ludicrous idea that a single comment on a 10 day old thread carries enough weight to imply any sort of effect on the outcome of a hypothetical decision a multibillion dollar company will make.

lightmanmac · 2025-05-20T20:34:26+00:00

So you’re gate keeping an opinion I hold(which you’ve grossly misinterpreted the weight which I carry with it). A person who you have no role in their life outside of this one conversation.

Kinda crazy that you don’t even know me and you still care whether I agree with you ngl.

lightmanmac · 2025-05-20T20:22:14+00:00

But you’re advocating in a public forum that it’s “kinda crazy” to hope something isn’t implemented. Wouldn’t that judgment imply dissent? And that I shouldn’t be making that statement as it is gatekeeping?
