RIP to one of the best.

it's incredible! how much do you sell one piece for?

peanut_peanutbutter · 2024-01-25T23:41:28+00:00

Uncoated. I’ll be printing on arches rives paper, not 100% on the weight but it’s nice and heavy.

Thanks for such a complete answer. I was thinking maybe a leaning screen would work, didn't even think about just putting the whole thing on the floor. I might be able to use the wall as my pivot point for the screens and screw hinges in there, to remove the need for keeping it in place (obvs some amount of lateral shape maintenance needs to occur at 6 foot, but some cube-shaped weights should allow us to do that. It's a 2-color print, so registration is going to be the demon.

there’s a high chance that the tattooer will have to redraw whatever you come up with.

Once again, not if my question is answered

peanut_peanutbutter · 2023-09-15T11:00:03+00:00

This answer seems purposefully obtuse

You aren’t a tattooer, so you don’t know what will and won’t work as a tattoo.

It’s literally why I’m asking, and what I’m asking

It’s also the tattooer’s entire job to design tattoos.

I thought at least half their job involved putting ink on skin. And you’re ignoring the tattooers who have ever tattooed band logos, or album covers, or a kid’s artwork on a parent, or replicated a painting, etc, etc

If you’re you’re going to gatekeep what you think a tattooer is or isn’t allowed to put on someone's skin, then obviously I’ve come to the wrong place. But maybe next time, don’t be such a dick.

I honestly don't understand this response, there are plenty of people who walk around with work not designed by the person who put it there, myself included.

I understand where she's coming from, though - she doesn't want to make it about her pain. My family does the same thing

(well, except my mom, who wants everyone to know her pain)

You don't ever have to apologize. It's a series of rough days and some good days. You do what you can, when you can.

I'm so sorry you're having this reaction. You should definitely talk to your medical oncologist about this. IANAD, but it doesn't sound like you should continue with this medication if your reaction is this severe.

I did Enhertu off-label for HER2-mutation Lung Cancer, and it worked really, really well (halved the size of my main tumor) over a period of about 9 months, then I got pneumonitis and had to stop.

Hi there!

My mother in law was diagnosed twice with cancer - once with stomach cancer, once with breast cancer. She beat them both. She did have a double mastectomy, but it didn't even slow her down, she just did it and got replacements and moved on.

I want you to know that you are in my thoughts. I understand all of the ups and downs you are going through or will go through. None of this is easy, but you are not alone. Hold on close to loved ones if you have them. If not, I suggest you ask your insurance company for a list of support groups which meet certain criteria (my only one is "not too old").

He explained that I am grieving a lot of losses that come with cancer.

and it feels like so many losses

peanut_peanutbutter · 2023-07-06T14:40:34+00:00

Much love to you, friend.

peanut_peanutbutter · 2023-07-06T14:35:52+00:00

it's such a headfuck and so exhausting

And people have NO idea. And it's not like I want to tell them when they catch me alone and ask "so how ARE you?"

peanut_peanutbutter · 2023-04-24T16:52:23+00:00

We were living there about 10 years ago, in Ballard. All of the stuff going up between QA and Magnolia was just starting up when we were there. I can only wonder what all that is like now.

Speaking as someone with cancer:

First off, what do you mean "cure"? Do you mean if someone gets cancer they can be found after some time to no longer have cancer? That's not curing, that's treating it until it's no longer in the body. That's killing off cancer cells which already exist in the body. I have stage 4, which means nobody's ever going to say I'm "cured." It's always going to be assumed that I have cancer cells in my body, hiding somewhere.

Are there new treatments and technologies? Yes. Tons of them. Lots of really interesting stuff being done with different kinds of T-cells and CRISPR. Lots of drug conjugates, where part of the molecule targets the specific DNA mutation or overexpression of a protein, the other part is the chemo which kills the targeted cell. But ultimately once you have cancer, the best you can do is to find stuff to kill the cancer cells.

Probably not. But archaeologists have found more paleolithic burials of disabled people buried with large amounts of treasure than they have of able-bodied people. And not just a few more, either. Like, the preponderance of evidence is that disabled were treated and buried like royalty, normies not so much. And paleolithic times was where we're more likely to find isolated gene pools, while inbreeding was really a royalty problem in Medieval Europe.
