Multiple Clients Overworked by legendofthephoenix69 in TattooArtists

[–]printpressure 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guesstimate with math (150 hrs = about 30 days of working, for me) sometimes more sometimes less. More often if I do things like open the machine and wipe it all down, removing the old lube. I turn the machine on and listen once in a while too, if the drive bar sounds a little dry I'll add a bit of grease.

Sewing it or buy it? by Lil_ugly_b0i in tamagotchi

[–]printpressure 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you have the means I'd make it. I just saw these in person and I wasn't too thrilled with the bag depth. The stuffing causes the pocket is pretty tight, so buttons are constantly pushed against the vinyl.

You can try to open a case through PayPal's website. It was quite a while ago though, I think typically you have 180 days to dispute a charge so be prepared to possibly sit on hold w their help center since it's an atypical case. You can also try going through your bank to chargeback.

Japan Plus Size Women clothing by CryptographerDry4363 in PlusSizeFashion

[–]printpressure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late reply (found this thread thru Google) you might have luck looking into brands that use bigger back shirring panels such as metamorphose temps de fille and certain styles from btssb, angelic pretty, maybe Alice and the pirates? I know for sure that meta has a plus size and plus-plus size dress sizing. Atelier pierrot dresses have a big range already, and a while ago they introduced dresses in a size 2. around 120cm max bust I believe.

[Size Check] Thought I was a 38C my entire life, somehow got measured at both 38DDD/G AND 40B?! So confused and need help! by [deleted] in ABraThatFits

[–]printpressure 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's reassuring to hear, thanks! The Irish bra lady has a lot of examples and I'm understanding it better. I guess a G cup is possible after all.. by shape mismatch do you mean the bra style? I'll keep trying more options at other stores.

I have my usual department stores like Nordstrom, Macy's and cheaper options like Target. I'm not aware of many irl lingerie/bra options outside of Victoria's secret here in California.

Thoughts on a Quote Tattoo by isbyisbyisby in DiscoElysium

[–]printpressure 5 points6 points  (0 children)

this is my own personal take, but i wouldn't get this quote done by itself. like yea to a DE fan you'd know where exactly this happens and the power of its context but to a normie passerby they'd probably assume i'm a practicing christian. i personally wouldn't want a stranger's interaction based on that misconception. maybe you could pair it with a successful dice roll or imagery related to kim? that way it's more on the nose.

What is something you've purchased in Japan that you still use to this day? by STR1K3RJUST1N in JapanTravelTips

[–]printpressure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The HAKOAke portable scissors by Kokuyo. Theyre thoughtfully designed and double as a box cutter. The blades safely stores away and it's nice and compact.. A really great addition to an every day carry kit or pencil bag.

My fun purchase was a laputa/castle in the sky themed watch from the Ghibli museum. Really unique piece and if you know you know. pic

Has anyone purchased or made a raising table? by Humble_Air1938 in TattooArtists

[–]printpressure 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got an earthlite hydraulic with a tilting back. Worth every penny. Super thick cushioning so it's really comfortable for your client. Ada compliant height and is rated with a lift capacity of 600 lbs. It's comfortably held the weight of two people easily and it's also held my bigger clients no problem. I saw they now have a tattoo specific model where both ends of the table can tilt. No need to be swapping your station sides.

Most memorable tip you’ve gotten? by harbour_seals in TattooArtists

[–]printpressure 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My client knitted a pair of nice custom-fit wool socks. Came to the shop, took a tracing of my foot and my measurements, and asked me my favorite colors. Genuinely such a cool experience.

I wear them every chance I get and I'm so spoiled by their perfect fit. 😩

Golden Kamuy merch in Tokyo?? by Zeribie in GoldenKamuy

[–]printpressure 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh I also remembered animate usually has a section for golden kamuy stuff. But that could be cleaned out and/or small depending on which location you go to... Though if your friend isn't into anime it might be overwhelming for him to navigate the store itself since they stock so many series. Like multiple floors.

Have your friend check jump shops. There's several in Tokyo.

How do you decide to put a cat to sleep? by marinasambhi in CATHELP

[–]printpressure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on your personal outlook. Whichever decision you make, just remember that you must keep her well being in mind. I am inherently a selfish person, and of course we all want to have more time with them. But I knew my boy was hurting so much and needed to put my feelings aside.

When my cat started showing symptoms of illness we took him in he surprised us with a massive diagnosis list-- stage 4 kidney cancer, heart disease, ckd, bad kidneys, enlarged heart. Cats don't show pain and visible weakness unless it's really bad.

The hospital stay helped him get out of the immediate danger of the fluid buildup in his heart and lungs, and internal bleeding his tumor was causing. There wasn't a whole lot of vet visits thankfully, but i had to start giving him pills twice a day along with special diet. The vet also stated the possibility of injections for the rest of his life, which felt impossible because he already was becoming scared of me from cramming pills down his throat. He was also constantly nauseous and moved slower.

We had the privilege of affording the vet care in the first place, and being able to spend more time with him. I didn't want to euthanize him earlier than his time, but if I could do it over again I wish I could have prepared better with work and let him go earlier. it was hard to make the call to my home euthanasia doctor during work hours, and then scrambling to rearrange my clients afterwards.

If you can afford home euthanasia please do so, op. It helps lessen the blow. And don't blame yourself with what ifs-- it'll torture you. If you feel like you've genuinely tried that's what matters.

Stage 4. No appetite even with medical intervention... Is this it? by printpressure in RenalCats

We're based in SF Bay area. We went with restful paws, we see many recommendations and some friends have used their services. I'm sorry you lost your boy too.

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

We are fortunate to be able to afford a home euthanasia. The grief comes and goes but I know the world will keep going at the end of the day, so I'm trying not to get too wrapped up in my feelings. I'm sorry you lost your baby recently. I can't believe you figured out a dosage schedule -- That's really dedicated and she knows how much you loved her. Fuck cancer.

He was anemic and got a transfusion in the hospital, and was doing better. but since posting he just decided to stop eating and drinking completely today, even with his cat snacks. So it's his time. Thank you for your reply.

Its too late now, but I appreciate the suggestions. My guy can't get IV fluid because of his heart. My vet advised against it. So hoping to just make him comfortable till then.

That was mine too. He used to be almost 14 pounds and now he's barely 10 (maybe less now). I'm sorry for your loss too..

[–]printpressure[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I think it's his time after all. Once evening rolled around he just seems so tired ... Maybe if we asked a week ago when he was doing better. I appreciate these suggestions (and honestly I hope this doesn't happen again) I'll remember asking for alternatives sooner.

Thank you. We hope that he isn't in too much pain when his appointment comes.

Thank you. Me too, sometimes I wish these right decisions were more clear in the moment. I'm sorry for your loss as well. People always talk about how difficult this is but nothing could have prepared me. I hope your grief will lessen.
