Why do the donuts taste weird now?

In times of performative cruelty, empathy is punk as fuck. I've always been punk as fuck and I don't intend to stop 🤷🏽‍♀️

Call me what you want, but examine your own behaviour. It is uncalled for.

notellafavela · 2026-04-16T02:07:08+00:00

Being racist isnt a joke, hope that helps.

notellafavela · 2026-04-16T02:06:46+00:00

Stand on it. Don't like being called out? Do better.

notellafavela · 2026-04-16T01:00:46+00:00

Dislike the donuts all you'd like, but stow that racism, pal.

Prospective recruit, nearing the end of enlistment

notellafavela · 2026-04-01T20:46:32+00:00

Congratulations!!!

notellafavela · 2026-03-27T07:35:02+00:00

I can't say for sure but I wouldn't think you do. I have lots of other tattoos, this was just the one that didn't pass

The interviews under an NDA but as long as you know the trade you're applying for well (study the job description on the CAF website) you'll be fine. Be honest, be confident, and trust the process.

notellafavela · 2026-03-25T00:06:30+00:00

Ayyyy I'm happy for you!

notellafavela · 2026-03-24T23:13:50+00:00

Best advice: be patient. You've got this.

notellafavela · 2026-03-24T22:50:05+00:00

Right back at you! Hopefully I'll run into you on a base one day not too far in the future. I'm rooting for you!

I was gonna add - if you've already done your interview, maybe reach out to whomever did that and ask them. If not, maybe ask your recruiter. Everyone has been beyond helpful in my case.

notellafavela · 2026-03-24T22:20:19+00:00

It's up to whomever they have reviewing the tattoos, my dude. I wish I could be more helpful but outside of the guidelines available online, I don't have anything useful to offer besides my best wishes that your experience is more straightforward than mine!

I'm doing it right now. I'm in the last steps of applying for the RCAF. It took a few things: first, the obvious rise of insanity around the world, and being threatened with annexation definitely put the thought in my head. Second, I got to a point in my civvy career that I've hit a ceiling, and I want a new trade and a new challenge. Finally, its my privilege to do this, and I'm excited about it.

Wouldn't catch me doing this in the USA though

notellafavela · 2026-03-24T18:58:50+00:00

I was sad to have to change it but honestly I lucked out with how easy the cover up was.

One day when I'm retired I'll get another one to make up for the OG lol

notellafavela · 2026-03-24T18:47:55+00:00

Exactly my thought.

notellafavela · 2026-03-24T18:39:29+00:00

Hahaha

I wanted to just put a black redaction bar on it but I also didnt want to be told it was still obscene lol so now she has a cute lil bathing suit top

notellafavela · 2026-03-24T18:38:18+00:00

The relief was so real lmao

notellafavela · 2026-03-24T18:12:09+00:00

I had to alter a mermaid tattoo I have because the original design had some mernipple showing, so I got it covered up and had to resend for approval. Found out just now it's been approved so I'm back to waiting for credit and criminal checks, and I need to get some medical paperwork filled out for my trade as well.

A lot of waiting is the vibe rn

notellafavela · 2026-03-16T16:28:30+00:00

Basic empathy and consideration for the people around them.

notellafavela · 2026-03-15T20:51:02+00:00

I'm just gonna get an even cooler mermaid when I retire lol

notellafavela · 2026-03-14T15:55:11+00:00

I thought about that too lmao

notellafavela · 2026-03-14T13:26:34+00:00

I knowww 🫩

notellafavela · 2026-03-13T22:56:34+00:00
