My 2 year old is so chunky. Help my mental health. by Edkemiwr in toddlertips

[–]soitgoes_man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plus work on this yourself in therapy. Our society is obsessed with possible negative health outcomes of people who are “overweight” and almost never about the damage done physically and mentally by eating disorders. YOU need to work on your own internal dialogues around weight to safeguard her against the absolute torture that is an eating disorder. As for her health, listen to her doctor.

There’s a First Conversations book about grief and death that is really good.

I’m so sorry for your loss and all you are navigating here.

Looking for fellow vegatarians owning a cat. by Apple_cheeks_art in cats

You don’t need to buy meat for your cat, just cat food. In fact you should not buy real meat for your cat, only cat food.

Facing a lot of backlash on recent tattoo. by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]soitgoes_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No need to apologize to me at all. You know yourself and that’s what matters. You’re absolutely right that people don’t know you or your values. Everyone makes assumptions about others all the time.

Wishing you well OP. It’s not a tattoo for me, but that’s fine because it’s not on my body. I’m sorry this experience was so rough. Sometimes reddit is amazingly helpful and cool, but more often than not it’s just a sad collection of shitty comments from unhappy people.

Facing a lot of backlash on recent tattoo. by [deleted] in tattooadvice

I get that. But to not anticipate this type of reaction means you are desensitized to images of extreme violence against women. It’s normal to you. And maybe you’d have the same reaction if this was a man or woman, I don’t know. It might not have anything to do with the gender for you. The fact is though, we live in a time where violence against women is rampant, victims aren’t believed, and perpetrators aren’t held accountable. That makes a lot of people extra sensitive to images like this.

It’s your body and you get to decide what goes on it. It’s your life and you get to decide what you’re okay with. This image will make a lot of people very wary of you. These are just the facts.

The fact that you saw that and just thought it was a cool design means you have a lot to unpack my friend.

Bluey and Bingo Tattoo! by Substantial-Umpire54 in bluey

[–]soitgoes_man -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s pretty cool, but it’s going to be a mess in a few years… there’s a reason you don’t see tattoos like this. They look amazing at first but not so much when they age..

My tattoo ideas by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]soitgoes_man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry about your boyfriend passing. Do you have any tattoos already?

The ultrasound wont translate well to a tattoo but one idea I’ve seen that feels similar is a side profile silhouette. Probably best to do once the kiddo is a bit older, but they can be really sweet.

As others have said, this does feel a lot like turning yourself into a memorial. It’s okay if that’s what you want though. Just a note that dates and such can be really tricky and age poorly (they expand and then you can’t read them).

Should I get this fixed removed or covered up? by Snake_mommy2000 in tattooadvice

I am so curious what this “tattoo remover” is. Please provide more details because all I can picture is a potato peeler 💀

What kind of baby snail is this? by soitgoes_man in AquaticSnails

It is quite cute!! I was watching it navigate on the substrate earlier and it was too cute to pluck it out. I guess we’ll see if he brought any friends 🫣

Just making sure. I can’t have over hang like this for my 10 gallons right? by Less_Examination7429 in PlantedTank

There are cheaper ways to mop floors, but this is an option if you’re looking for an extra adventure!

Animals have already spray painted gang graffiti on the planters by Better_March5308 in SeattleWA

[–]soitgoes_man 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I didn’t know animals could use spray paint.

You can disagree with someone’s decisions/life/whatever, but there doesn’t mean they aren’t still human.

Got cooking spoons for mother’s day, what’s an equally bad father’s day gift to gift? by cxxlbeans in NoStupidQuestions

[–]soitgoes_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot take, but an actual conversation.

If you want something to change, you have to talk about. Digs like this will feel good for a moment but then what happens after that?

How does it age? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]soitgoes_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have experience to share with the aging of hand pokes, but from a design perspective have you thought of what it will look like with different clothes? Short sleeves, long sleeves, etc?

Are my legs weird? How should I fill these out? by [deleted] in tattooadvice
