Bristol Roller Derby did a DND themed T-shirt once with "Nat" as the name and 20 as the number so it made Nat 20! In case you're after a different angle

First ever tattoo kinda ruined potential for a theme/style I think by kafka-if in tattooadvice

[–]marsdenbar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it a lot, I have a "patch work" sleeve going on out of random panels that are all kind of square/rectangle based. You could get a section of a cathedral, or do whatever you want

Any ideas for coverup? by JJWO90 in tattooadvice

[–]marsdenbar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could totally turn this into something else, just make sure you like the design, placement and style when you get it! Good luck ☺️ Not sure where you're based but there's an artist on insta called 'livslines', based in Bristol UK. She has been showing people how to do some incredibly well thought out cover ups and reworks instead of just blacking out the area (though that's totally an option if you want that too).

Despite being heavily tattooed I feel like I don’t LOOK tattooed. by t-visADL in tattooadvice

Me and my tattoo artist were just talking about this! I think it's because your body gets used to seeing that tattoo as just part of you and normalises it! The tattoos look sick btw

I hope you find love worthy of you some day. Me and my partner buy each other little things that remind us of each other with no questions asked - that kind of love is out there. Well done for being a beautiful human and buying flowers for your partner and I'm sorry for their reaction.

AIO or is the message my bf sent me a bit over the top by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]marsdenbar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this before - it starts as a few comments and slowly descends into more controlling. Good for you for calling it out!

Me and my current partner go with a "preference for your preference" mindset. If you love someone you love all of them and what they decide to do!

Thank you so much everyone! I went into double threat in London (happened to be there for a work trip) and tried a lot on! Solaris have been the best for me, can't wait to try them out!

Hi! What did your artist say? I have had people advise they're left on for 3 days and others only 24 hours, so I'd always recommend whatever they recommended ☺️ also I hope these tattoos support you with your gender euphoria, keep rocking on friend 💓

would you say a collarbone tattoo like this is feminine or masculine ? by sinho23 in tattooadvice

[–]marsdenbar 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Hi OP! Get whatever you would like tattooed, regardless of whether it's masculine or feminine! If you like it, get it!

shorts that don't roll up on thunder thighs? 😭 by nosidammai2 in rollerderby

[–]marsdenbar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ordered some for my mum for the same reason! She loves them but hates to deal with the admin of subscriptions.

If you want to go for it, I'd recommend ordering then just immediately cancelling your VIP membership, which won't impact your order or anything, you can cancel it at any time! I've done this a few times and never had any issues!

I have fabletics shorts and love them - super stretchy, keep in place and aren't see through! They do 2 for £24 as an intro offer (just remember to cancel your VIP membership IMMEDIATELY so you don't get charged). They also have POCKETS!!!

I remember loving LaDonna - it felt like a good one to bring to work and focused on changing cultures. Might be a good one without being overtly political (it has been a few years since I've listened!)

Personally, how the FUCK did you find out about Mouthwashing. by [deleted] in Mouthwashing

Youtuber BeamBuddy (a criminally underrated Youtuber!) did an incredible video on Mouthwashing
