#how to increase pennis size

RWBY V8 & Penny's Fall:

I wanted to weigh in on this matter again with a perhaps alternative take to some of what I see as the more usual FNDM stance on her fall.

Namely, it doesn't bother me.

Sacrilege, I know, but the thing is while Penny is not in my top four, she is a character I both like & find genuinely interesting.

Heck, I have a video heavily focused on Penny & Ruby's characters & relationship being much deeper & more interesting than the UWU beans I find in most FNDM.

She's a great character but that's also why it doesn't bother me as I feel it works for the story & made sense for the character. 

But first, some house cleaning.  

House Cleaning - They made her human?

As others noted, this is something some take issue with for a few different reasons. As I understand it the main issues people tend to have with V8's handling of Penny outside her death was that they made her 'human' in place of keeping her synthetic body. As others also noted, I am unsure if she even was human and not just another kind of synthetic entity, but that's rather besides the point. 

House Cleaning - Thematic Representation?

The other thing people take issue with this is that they regard it as a form of ableism to make her human. I always feel its integral to note that while many in FNDM understandably took Penny's robotic nature as meaning in a Real World AU, she might be using prosthetic limbs.

There is no evidence as far as I am aware that the writers intended her to be considered analogous to a disabled person or to thematically represent disabled people. 

Thus, while its a fine and fun headcanon, I am not sure one can argue it was some sort of deliberate offence or act of ableism on the creators part if they never even conceived of Penny as such.

This wouldn't be like becoming aware of queer subtext, ship teasing then killing one of them off and putting the other in a straight relationship. As far as I can tell their thematic framing of Penny never shifted and was never explicitly used to draw such comparisons. 

House Cleaning - A Reward?

Penny being rewarded with a none robotic body & then dying. We'll discuss the death later but just on the reward angle, I think that is rather iffy.

Yes, Penny appreciated not being dead and enjoyed the increased tactile sensations. But we also see how much more fragile and floundering she is with her new form. When Penny fought Cinder last time with Cinder having backup, Penny kicked her ass. 

Here, Penny has the support and is barely keeping up. She's in pain, she can't fly easily, she can't use her weapons easily, she has lost tons of functions that were once innate to her very being.

Maybe one could argue its like post surgeries fragility or that she'd have grown into it, but as it stands, I don't think the new body was presented as strictly speaking a good thing or a reward. It was a desperate gamble to save her life, nothing more. 

Adding onto that, I think people mis-ascribe the source of Penny's angst regarding her mechanical nature. She's shown cheerfully embracing and enjoying many aspects of it all the time. When it becomes an issue for her is when others use it to de-'humanize' her.

Given how quickly Ironwood, the Ace-Ops, Mantle and even just casual conversation could do that on purpose or by accident. I think its less "I hate being a robot" and more, "I hate that people treat me this way because of what I am and its giving me anxiety & or insecurities". 

I also think anyone would be a little uncomfy with their body being something someone else can take over and puppet, that's an issue with loss of agency & physical invasiveness & we have Semblances which might not have been able to effect Penny that can do similar things, IE memory erasure & mind control. 

House Cleaning - Conclusion

For comparisons sake, if Ruby's essence got moved over to a sort of life sized marionette and she was cool with it because she's still alive & have super flexible joints for wicked cool attacks, but then she he died fighting, I don't think people would regard it as a reward turned sour.

In essence, I think a lot of the stigma comes with people associating tropes & themes to the writers decisions that were not actually in the story & just assuming them present; as opposed to than having textual support & despite CRWBY's efforts to deconstruct tropes & themes in general. 

The Main Event:

Moving on to Penny's death, people take issue with quite a few aspects of it but I weirdly feel it all ties together well and think it works on a thematic level. My reason being, that Penny is the other side of the coin whose other half Ironwood and between the pair are the likes of Winter, the Ace-Ops and so on. 

What I mean here is that the Atlas arc dealt heavily with the themes of 'de-humanization' of seeing people made unto like objects, mere cogs in a machine that were not expected to think, feel, or heal & have their entire worth judged against an idea or a system & always come up wanting. You don't matter, I don't matter, they don't matter, only what we can accomplish for the worlds, the cause, Atlas, ETC, matters. 

Ironwood regards Mantle as a few city blocks, their suffering is at best a theoretical moral burden to him and a political nuisance, nothing more. Winter thinks expressing any emotions or making decisions for herself is a failure and act of disloyalty and is not allowed time to heal after severe injuries but just poured into a mobility mechanism, then thrown back onto the battlefield. Meanwhile the Ace-Ops are not allowed to even conceive of real, deep or genuine emotions or ideas, they have all convinced themselves they don't matter except in how they serve Atlas.

The Happy Huntresses are actually the exception to this because they escaped the coin/system & are dedicated to people, ideals & each other. 

Meanwhile, Ironwood is the opposite of Penny, while both still embody the opposite extreme ends of the same spectrum of beliefs. 

Both of them talk of or otherwise frame themselves as the one with the duty to save the world, both put themselves under immense and isolating pressure tanks to their respective Atlas's complexes and both default heavily to sacrificing whenever the opportunity or even potential need seems to arise. Both will do whatever it takes for their goals and beliefs. 

The difference?

Ironwood sacrifices everyone else for his goals and beliefs, for his idea of what Atlas is, what it means & what its worth. 

Penny tries from volume 8 if not earlier, to sacrifice herself because of her goals & beliefs, & what they're worth to her. 

She does this so much and so often, that she had to keep being talked out of throwing her life away in the hope that Ironwood, or Salem would calm down and leave them be. She defined her self worth and existence by being out there doing things, hence becoming so saddened when needing to be kept away from the battlefield despite the fact she was both a target and potentially a huge game changer for any of the villains. 

Penny has Atlas's ideology of de-humanization and sacrifice every bit as much as Ironwood, but in her mind she's the expendable one, while Ironwood cannot conceive of himself as being expendable, because he has tethered himself to Atlas, which he has tethered to the world. 

Here is the thing though.

While Penny's take on this idea is more noble, more charming, more useful it is still part of an incredibly self destructive ideology, one that is of itself rooted in Ozpin's well known Guardian theory. With isolated lone champions serving as paragons of virtue & himself as the main character heroically bearing all the burdens. An ideology we saw sent Pyrrha spiraling, left Ozpin a broken & paranoid wreck & nearly destroyed Ruby.

Penny & Ironwood both fell because both keep trying to sacrifice others (Ironwood) or themselves (Penny) in a bid to accomplish their goals & or otherwise fulfill their designates roles; roles that both only have because of the culture and ideals suffusing Atlas, as reflected by how they are seen in so many other characters and the overarching themes of the Atlas Arc. 

Thus, it makes sense character wise and I think it both makes sense thematically for the reasons outlined above & dramatically as this is the darkest moment. But also because if Penny just won, or somehow survived without changing that ideological thinking it'd be implicitly arguing that this was a good way to think and act rather than one that is ultimately self harming. 

For comparisons sake, if a show has a good victim who only gets help because their trauma responses are convenient or 'cute' and who never grows out of or overcomes said traumas and the show argues it is meant to represent how best to view escape & recover from abuse. Then that series is inadvertently arguing its better a person stay locked in a traumatized state than actually try to change or grow & that is a story problem.

So, in this regard, Penny surviving would also necessitate her making the decision to prioritize the mission over her self sacrificing tendencies or to otherwise prioritize her own safety (Which she has every right to do given the circumstance). However it would not involve Penny flinging herself into another self sacrificial bout but winning this time, or just being saved again after its happened so many times already. 

I hope that, that made sense. 

I am essentially saying to keep Penny alive but keep everything else mostly the same, one then throws away the thematic & narrative meaning of the Atlas Arc; or if they want to keep Penny alive, they need to alter the Atlas Arcs themes or the cast & overall story to keep it coherent.  

People are obviously free to not be fans of it, I am sad when characters I like die, but I don't view it inherently as a bad writing decision and I hope I have outlined here, exactly why I think that this worked for the Atlas Arc, the series of RWBY and made sense for its characters. 

Thanks for reading! 

Speculation:

Now, I don't do much speculating, but given so much of the shows current drama was created as a result of someone wanting a dead loved one back, them returning but it ultimately not being enough to stave off tragedy and self destruction. I feel one can also ague this is meant to serve and tie Ruby & Salem closer together as nominal dramatic foils.

This is speculative of course, especially given the nature of death, balance and resurrections in this series is not even close to the hard line some think it is thematically speaking, but I do think that is worth keeping in mind.

Oh, what the fuck.

No, no, like — what the actual fuck.

Avery was shell-shocked, standing in the rain, clothes becoming soaking as he stared wide-eyed at the wooden box in front of him. His breath fogged as he approached, hand grazing over the smoothed surface and feeling the dips and crevices of the burnt-on symbol. It wasn’t uncommon for WRU boxes to be on campus, though usually they were cardboard boxes; things for peoples’ pets that they already had before attending the college. Items and commodities that were given as some sort of monthly subscription or a bonus for giving the company good rep or something.

Not a wooden box settled right on his doorstep, though not alien to him, it was… unheard of people getting a pet during college. Responsibility and all that.

Especially since he hadn’t even ordered a pet, much less thought of getting one while he’s still taking classes for his Biomedical Engineering major. He was already staying up late some nights studying, he certainly didn’t have enough time to pay attention to a pet.

…Still, it’s cold out here. And his joints are starting to scream at him.

Heaving a sigh, the college student stepped around the box, taking out his keys with a jingling tune. Pushing the door open, he turned to the box, finally taking notice of the plastic-covered set of papers on top. At least they thought about the weather beforehand.

Man, he’s gonna hurt after dragging this in. Lamenting about his later pain, he clutched the two corners and began pulling, grinding down on his teeth in his strain to at least get it past the doorway. He was never the strongest person, and with his chronic illness, it made it all the more tough on him. His hands slipped, and he landed with a heavy thud on his back, staring up at the ceiling. After a moment of contemplating his life, he sat back up, carding his hand through hair swirling with several shades of reds and browns. Alright, he’s gotten it inside.

Using the box as a brace, he stood, growling under his breath at the sharp shooting of pain from his left leg up into his lower back. He closed the door against the increasing winds, locking it behind him as he turned to the box and hovered over the paperwork.

…Well, it wasn’t a mistake; this box was clearly addressed to him. Full name and all. He hummed confusedly, tearing the package from the top and scanning it over before he took it out of the plastic. It seemed to be all up-to-date, the box was shipped out three days ago, express shipping and all paid for, not a penny taken from him. He let out a sigh, shoulders sagging and dropping the plastic bag and paperwork on the floor beside the box.

“Alright, guess I gotta go get my box…” He mumbled to himself, turning on his heel to walk to his room. It took a moment of rifling through his desk before he uncovered the suitcase-like toolset. And in a second-moment thought, he turned towards his kitchen, opening the fridge. He’s heard of boxies being dehydrated, and he didn’t want to neglect the poor thing.

The box remained the same as he left it when he returned, setting down the water and toolset as he slowly got onto folded knees. As his knee braces pressed into the carpet, he winced at the aching in his knees as he crouched over the box in order to look over the screws — looks like they were Phillip's-head. It took a few minutes of attempting to get the correctly-sized attachment before he could unscrew the top. Once again he winced as he stood, placing the screwdriver to the side and sliding the top off with a thud.

Within the box was a pet curled up, wearing a thin pair of shorts and a white tank top. Its black hair looked to be unwashed and a bit matted, its pale skin having a few scars; likely from its time during training. Avery hummed worriedly, he had always worried about how pets were treated when they were training or being refurbished. He knew that pain was one of the ways they learned but, well, still. It made him feel bad.

It took him for a moment before he realized the pet hadn’t moved, blinking rapidly.

“Oh, uh, shoot. You can sit up, do it slowly though, I don’t want you to get dizzy.” He ordered, watching as the pet slowly sat up, its hazel-green eyes meeting his own making his blood turn to ice.

“...No.” He recoiled, slowly standing up. “No, no, no this has — this can’t be real.” He muttered. The pet’s — no, Kaine’s eyes widened both in fear and confusion. He hadn’t seen this asshole in, what, months? But, well, it made sense. He’d suddenly disappeared quite a few months back, and it usually took a long time to train pets, but…

“God, this has to be some kind of sick joke.” Avery practically spit, continuing to back up. This guy had stalked him for, what, almost a year? He thought he had gotten rid of him when he disappeared, but, well, here was the reason he was gone. He was given to WRU and then given to him as a pet. Who would do such a thing? Why?

Avery suddenly felt hot, unbalanced and dizzy, leaning against the wall as his vision fuzzed. He wasn’t unused to his stress-induced syncopes, but usually he would be sitting down if he felt his heart speeding up. He struggled to find his grip for a moment before leaning on the wall and gently sliding down to the floor. Good, okay, he wouldn’t hurt himself this way. He allowed his head to drop onto his knees as his consciousness gave out, the world draining to black.

Black and numb, nothing to bother him. No pain, no staring eyes, no judgement… Just… darkness.

…When he came-to, something cool was on his head, and he was laying on the floor. Staring at the ceiling, he gathered himself, clearing his throat. How did he get here? Hadn’t he fainted against the wall? Reaching up, the coolness on his forehead revealed to be a wet washrag. He sat up slowly, looking around.

The pet — god, he’s a pet now — was kneeling next to him now, head touching the ground. There wasn’t anyone else around… had he — it? — done this? Why did he position him on the floor? Was this some sort of punishment for him or Kaine? God, there were so many questions he had, and too little answers. Swallowing the lump in his throat, he resisted a shiver as he watched the pet stay stock still. He glanced behind it and noticed the water bottle had gone untouched, and took in a breath.

“Um, you can… you can sit up.” He said, watching as the other followed as he ordered. He looked fairly different since Avery last saw him, but he’d recognize the eyes that stared at him from afar for months on end anywhere, not to mention the scar under his eye matched the one he had gotten when Lych had socked him.

Sure, he was so much thinner than he was before, and there were several new scars across his skin, his eyes slightly sunken in and cheeks hollow from dehydration and likely starvation. His eyes showed no recognition, just obedience, reverence and… the slightest look of fear. Even despite this, Avery couldn’t help the sickly feeling in his stomach that settled there as he looked at the other. Taking in a breath, he sighed. This… wasn’t ideal, but Kaine wasn’t, well, Kaine now. Sure, he still felt uncomfortable around him, but he likely didn’t remember what he did. He’d heard of the “Drip”, a drug cocktail they made to have the pets forget their pasts as humans, and, well, the other’s eyes didn’t hold a drop of recognition.

“Stay here.” Slowly, Avery stood, making sure he didn’t swim with dizziness again. Thankfully, he didn’t, walking past the pet and grabbing the water bottle he had gotten. It was still cold, so he likely wasn’t out for long. That was good.

He returned to the pet, opening the bottle and looking up at it.

“Do you think you could drink this by yourself?” He asked, to which it gave a timid nod. Passing the water to the pet, he watched as it carefully drank. Once the plastic bottle was empty, he held his hand out for the bottle and then capped it, sitting in front of the pet cross-legged.

“Can you speak?”

The pet worked its mouth slowly, clearing its throat before speaking.

“Y-Yes, Master… this pet can speak.” Avery ignored the way his skin crawled at the label, gripping the legs of his pants for a moment before relaxing. It’s just what they have the pets call humans, it’s no big deal, it’s no big deal…

“Cool.” Taking a deep breath, he sighed, looking the pet over. “What’s your number?”

The pet’s spine straightened, holding out its wrist for Avery to see.

“637826, Designated Combination Domestic and Companion.” Avery nodded as it responded, glancing over the barcode tattooed on his wrist. Subconsciously, his shoulders slumped, thank fucking god it wasn’t a Romantic. He wouldn’t be sure what to do with it if it was.

“Okay, well, for now, until we find you a name that suits you, we’ll call you ‘826’ for now. That okay?” Avery asked, to which 826 nodded. Good, maybe this would go better than he thought. In another thought, he spoke again. “And — uh, don't call me Master,” It was weird to him to be called that by someone who used to practically obsess over him. Made his skin crawl. “call me ‘Sir’ or ‘Sir Avery’. Got that?”

There was a flicker of confusion, 826 slightly tilted its head before straightening back up. Avery watched its throat work as it swallowed nervously, likely thinking that the questioning movement would be seen as disobedience. The pet nodded, taking in a slow, shuddering breath.

“Yes, M —” A flinch. “S-Sir.”

“You're fine.” He reassured it, shifting about on his place on the floor before looking at the pet; he's a pet now, not a person. It'd take a while for that to sink in, honestly… “Think you could help me up?”

“Yes, Sir.” It responded, following the outstretched arm with a breath of hesitancy before the action seemed to click in the pet's mind. Crouching down, it let his arm rest on its shoulders as he moved to rest on his knees. Slowly, surely, he brought his feet beneath him, and came to a stand. His joints still ached, so he nudged his head towards the well-worn couch in the center of the living space.

“Set me down over there.” His voice was dredged in tiredness, the kind he felt down in his bones. What he wouldn’t do for this day to start over, so he could avoid this happening. How would he have avoided this? …He isn’t exactly sure, but, well. Here he was.

He sighed heavily as he settled into the couch, shifting about to get into an awkward position that helped ease the pain off his knees. He leaned against the arm of the couch, legs bent and just barely stretched all the way out. He flicked his hand at the bag of papers he cast aside.

“Grab those for me.”

Description

Rosa rubiginosa is the scientific name for rose. Roses belong to the Rosaceae family, and there are about 360 species in the genus Rosa. Erect bushes with stems are their defining characteristics.

Roses come in a variety of colours, such as red, white, yellow, blue, and many others. Roses are prized for their vivid colour, intricate petal arrangement, and fragrant scent. It also serves a functional purpose of slope stabilisation. The size of rose differs depending on the species. Roses are simple to grow since they are easily hybridised.

The majority of rose species are from Asia, while some are from Europe, North America, and other places.

Folklore

Roses have an extremely long history, with fossil evidence showing their existence over 35 million years ago. Around 5000 years ago, cultivation of roses is thought to have begun in China although it was only in the late 18th century that this type of rose made it to Europe. The cultivated roses from China were prized for their ability to bloom repeatedly each year and these cultivations ended up forming the base for most of the roses we see today after they were bred with hardy native roses.

Because of its bitter-sweet paradox of thorns and sweet smelling blooms, the rose earned its romantic associations. Love is both bitter and sweet, making the rose a perfect representation of it. The Greeks believed red roses were dyed by the blood of Aphrodite, Goddess of Love, after she cut her foot while running to attend the wounds of Adonis. Other myths suggest Cupid, God of Love, splashed white roses with his nectar thus turning them red. Either way, red too has strong associations with love and romance. Cleopatra strew roses across her room when she was with her lovers so they thought of her whenever they smelled one. Roses are commonly worn or used to during love spells to increase the power of the spell. Rose water and petals can be added to love baths to attract love and romance, while rose hips can be strung into a necklace to attract love. It is said that you can also take three (or more) green rose leaves and write the name of your lovers on each. The one that stays the green the longest is said to be the one.

Rose is also a plant of valor and protection. During the War of the Roses, both houses, Lancaster and York, adopted red and white roses to represent their houses. The red rose ended up later becoming the emblem of England. Rose petals and hips can be carried as a personal protective charms. In fact, they were often included in posies to ward off the Black plague. Rose petals around the home can calm personal stress and soothe household problems as well.

Quotes about roses

“A rose dreams of enjoying the company of bees, but none appears. The sun asks: ‘Aren’t you tired of waiting?’ ‘Yes,’ answers the rose, ‘but if I close my petals, I will wither and die.’” – Paulo Coelho

“The rose is a rose from the time it is a seed to the time it dies. Within it, at all times, it contains its whole potential. It seems to be constantly in the process of change: Yet at each state, at each moment, it is perfectly all right as it is.” – Paulo Coelho

“If I had a rose for every time I thought of you, I’d be picking roses for a lifetime.” – Swedish Proverb

“Roses fall, but the thorns remain.” – Dutch Proverb

“A single rose can be my garden… a single friend, my world.” – Leo Buscaglia

“How cunningly nature hides every wrinkle of her inconceivable antiquity under roses and violets and morning dew!” -Ralph Waldo Emerson

“When you have only two pennies left in the world, buy a loaf of bread with one, and a rose with the other.” -Chinese Proverb

(Article) Going back to Cyberpunks Night City never felt so great.

Alright. I had my reservations about Cyberpunk 2077s Update 2.0. But after completing Act 1 in one sitting last night, I can honestly say that this is the best time to hop back in and play through it all again. If you haven't played it, then NOW is the time.

It's been 2 years, 10 months, and 12 days since this game first cursed our screens with a disappointing buggy mess of a game. From top to bottom, exploits and balance issues were terrible. From item duplication to infinite money glitches, from terrain pop in and out to litteral skyscrapers disappearing. You name it, Cyberpunk had it.

However, even with all the issues it had, the foundation was there. But the house needed a remodel, an interior decorator, and time for them to fix it. As in every remodel, it will never have a straight line to completion. You start with the big stuff first as they make the game playable, then move on to the smaller things like the combat, skill trees and everything else.

When this game was at its best and running smoothly, it was stunning, graphically insane. The writing and the voice acting were equally as impeccable. It all came down to how it ran. At launch, I couldn't recommend this game to anyone. Now, with this update, I can recommend this game to everyone.

With fresh eyes on it and expectations lowered by a lot right from the jump, the game somehow looks better than I remember, which I didn't think would be entirely possible. The dialog, as outlandish as it is, was delivered excellently. The details in their face match perfectly to their tone when they are happy or sad, they are hiding contempt or malice it all matches.

The combat has also been a spot of large improvement. Whether you're going in guns blazing, stealth around and pick your enemies one by one, or just be a futuristic tech ninja using hacking and a katana to slice through your foes it all works and is a viable strategy. Sure, some enemies can feel like bullet sponges, but the improved feedback, recoil, sound, and muzzle flash all make it feel like you're really the one pulling the trigger.

The police in Night City also increased their budget size. They have been equipped with tactical training and AI to better combat the "Thugs" of Night City. They will also be setting roadblocks, shooting out their windows, and chasing you down all over the city. Even the slightest infraction will set them off, so be careful with the boot licking pigs. However, if you are looking into some car chases and vehicular combat sounds fun, make sure you check out the all new vehicle mounted weapons you can equip to cause maximum mayhem.

Now, let's get to just a couple of things that I still don't like. Vehicles still seem floaty. You'll be going 90 mph, but it still only feels like 20. I also experienced severe frame drops here and there. Usually, it only occurred during maximum load or set circumstances, like when walking up to the mirror to look at yourself or getting into an elevator or two.

My stance hasn't changed. I still think the new Phantom Liberty expansion should be free. But having the game play this good is something that every company whose game released... less than ideally should strive for. I'm proud to say that this game is worth every penny.

Has this article changed your mind? Do you plan on hopping in again? Or the first time? Want to talk anything gaming? Let me know! I stream every weekday, 8pm-12am. The link is below. I'd love to see you there!

Tattoo Size: The size of your infinity tattoo is one of the most critical factors influencing the cost. Larger tattoos require more ink, time, and skill to create, resulting in a higher price. Smaller infinity tattoos will generally be more affordable.

Tattoo Location: The body part you choose for your tattoo can also impact the cost. Areas with more bone, like the ribs or collarbone, are typically more painful and may cost more due to the increased skill and precision required.

Tattoo Artist: The experience and reputation of the tattoo artist will significantly affect the cost. Highly skilled and well-known artists may charge more for their services, but their expertise often leads to a better-quality tattoo. It's essential to choose an artist who aligns with your vision and has a portfolio that showcases similar work.

Tattoo Shop Location: The geographical location of the tattoo shop plays a role in pricing. Tattoo shops in major cities or popular tourist destinations tend to have higher overhead costs, which can translate into higher tattoo prices. Conversely, shops in smaller towns or less expensive areas may offer more budget-friendly rates.

Tattoo Design Complexity: The complexity of your infinity tattoo design, as well as any additional elements or detailing, will affect the cost. A simple infinity symbol may cost less than one with intricate patterns, shading, or additional imagery.

Tattoo Color: Infinity tattoos can be done in black and gray or colored ink. Color tattoos usually require more skill and may cost more due to the extra work and materials involved.

Average Cost Range

The cost of an infinity tattoo can vary widely, but to give you a general idea, here is a rough estimate of the average price range:

Small Infinity Tattoo: Small, basic infinity tattoos with minimal detailing can cost between $50 to $100.

Medium Infinity Tattoo: Medium-sized tattoos with more intricacy and color can range from $100 to $300.

Large Infinity Tattoo: Larger, more detailed infinity tattoos can range from $300 to $600 or more.

High-End Artists: For a custom infinity tattoo by a well-known or highly skilled tattoo artist, you might pay anywhere from $500 to $2,000 or even more, depending on the complexity and size of the design.

Additional Costs

In addition to the basic cost of the tattoo, there are some other expenses to consider:

Tip: It's customary to tip your tattoo artist, typically around 15-20% of the total cost.

Aftercare Products: You'll need to purchase aftercare products like ointment and lotion to ensure your tattoo heals properly.

Touch-Up Sessions: Depending on the tattoo and how well it heals, you may need one or more touch-up sessions, which could incur additional costs.

Conclusion

The cost of getting an infinity tattoo varies depending on factors such as size, location, design, and the skill of the artist. While it's important to set a budget, remember that getting a tattoo is a long-term commitment, and quality should not be compromised for the sake of saving money. Choose a reputable artist who understands your vision and is known for producing exceptional work, even if it means paying a bit more. Your infinity tattoo will be a symbol of enduring meaning and sentiment, and it's essential that it's worth every penny you invest.

One post that really annoys me is the one that's like "so many trans women play d&d and its clones why aren't there more tgirls on the big actual play media"

because that's like. such an example of grossly overestimating what should be happening based on who you personally know? Approximately 10% of the US population plays these sorts of games more than once a month and another 5% or so plays monthly or near monthly. That gives us a most generous estimate of 15% of the population who would be suitable to use as an ongoing player in any kind of podcast, video series, whatever.

And If we use about the most generous estimate of how many of us there are, it's like maybe 0.8% of the population is a trans woman and is willing to identify themselves as such to various manners of polling/surveys/etc. And honestly if you ain't willing to answer a survey you're definitely not going to be publicly on a podcast or anything.

If all of the tgirl population was routine d&d/d&d clone players (and of course very untrue lol) that would be a best case scenario that would be a bit over 5% of the size of the total population of people who play regularly. As like an absolute possible cap of participation.

In reality I don't believe there's any evidence that the amount of regular participants in d&d and clones among trans women is particularly different from the general population, not least because the kind of things that get in the way of participating in regular play tend to affect trans women more than the average person. Yknow, being busy, not being able to afford it, not being able to have a consistent availability schedule due to increased precariouaness from societal discrimination, all of that. Things that are also particularly a problem for a large scale entertainment property like a major podcast or video series before you count how much of the potential player base ain't gonna feel safe becoming a publicly known figure like that.

Like yeah yeah a generous estimate would be about 2 million to 2.75 million trans women in the country, sounds like a lot right. But the regular playerbase of d&d and clones is over 51 million. And that's a count of people specifically interested enough in the thing! You start trying to whittle down who would be potential person participating who is also a trans woman, and it's like maybe 300k, 400k.

Here's another factor: the proportion of the American population that makes at least a few dollars a year from online content is about 14%. Let's apply that to get a good estimate for who is likely to be doing any kind of even hobbyist with 9 bucks in tips for content online in a year: OK now we're down to like ~55,000 trans women who are regular d&d and clones players and are also putting stuff out online enough that they're picking up pennies from it - a suitable proxy for "willing and able to potentially participate". And that's kind of a top end for who might possibly participate in the kind of thing the post wanted to see! You could put all of those theoretical trans women in to the existing d&d and clones actual play/edited play media industrial complex evenly and that'd still probably work out to maybe getting one trans woman each on most of them! There's been a lot of attempts to make such things by a lot of people after all! There was even this decent history podcast I used to listen to that started doing actual plays to try to cover participating in the history subjects they were covering and it got so annoying that I stopped listening (they were not good at presenting a compelling actual play or editing it down to be compelling, ugh). And hey two nickels time cuz I had that happen again on another history podcast. Shit is rampant.

That's the nature of hobbies really. There is a lot more people not like you than you generally expect!

The Cost of Professional Carpet Cleaning in Harrow: Is It Worth It?

The Cost of Professional Carpet Cleaning in Harrow: Is It Worth It?

When it comes to maintaining the appearance and longevity of your carpets, investing in carpet cleaning services in Harrow is an effective solution. While some homeowners may be tempted to clean carpets themselves to save money, professional services provide a deeper, more thorough clean that can significantly extend your carpet's life. This article explores the cost of professional carpet cleaning in Harrow and why it’s worth every penny when you consider the potential for preventing costly carpet replacements.

Understanding the Cost of Carpet Cleaning Services in Harrow

The price for professional carpet cleaning services in Harrow varies based on several factors, including the size of the area, the type of carpet, and the method of cleaning. On average, homeowners in Harrow can expect to pay between £20 and £50 per room, though rates may be higher for larger or particularly dirty carpets. For whole-home cleaning services, prices can range from £100 to £300, depending on the extent of the work.

Carpets are often one of the most significant investments in a home’s decor. Dirt, dust, and spills can cause gradual wear and tear, leaving carpets looking old and worn. Regular use of carpet cleaning services in Harrow helps prevent these issues by deep-cleaning the carpet fibers and removing the particles that contribute to long-term damage.

Preserving Carpet Fibers: Dust and debris act like sandpaper on carpet fibers, wearing them down over time. Professional carpet cleaners use equipment and techniques that can remove dirt effectively, protecting your carpet from this abrasive damage.

Removing Stains and Odors: Even minor spills can lead to permanent stains and odors if left untreated. Carpet cleaners in Harrow are trained to remove a wide variety of stains, from pet accidents to coffee spills, that could otherwise result in the need for costly replacements.

Allergen Removal: Carpets often trap allergens, which can affect indoor air quality and the health of your household. Regular professional cleaning eliminates allergens like dust mites, pet dander, and mold spores, making your home a healthier place to live.

How do spreads work in forex trading?

Recognizing the Bid-Ask Spread: An Expense to Trading The difference between the buy and sell prices is one of the primary expenses of forex trading, and it can be substantial when scaling trades. Find out how the spread is determined, what factors affect its magnitude, and how to reduce your expenses.

What is the spread between bid and ask? First, the difference between the ask price (or offer) and the bid price is known as the bid-ask spread. The bid price is the highest price offered to purchase the same asset, whereas the ask price is the lowest price offered to sell it. To sell a currency pair, for instance, you would click on the bid price; to buy, you would click on the ask price.

In essence, the primary expense of trading is the difference between the ask and bid prices. Even though your stock broking or forex broker may provide you commission-free trading, the bid-ask spread is still an underlying transaction fee for your trades because the genuine price is the middle of the big and ask prices. The total cost of your trade also includes other expenses like buying power or margin needs.

How is the calculation made? The bid-ask spread can be calculated quite easily. To find the spread, just deduct the ask price from the bid price. For instance, the spread would be one penny if a stock's bid price was $10.05 and its ask price was $10.06. The same idea holds true for other assets, such as forex, where the spread is determined by deducting the ask price from the bid price.

The spread cost is also affected by the market you are trading in and the size of the trade. The fee would be one penny, for example, if you were trading one share of stock with a one-penny spread. However, the price would be $1.00 if you were trading 100 shares. The spread cost increases in importance as your deals get bigger. This holds true for a variety of markets, including derivatives with their own ticks and spreads, such as options and futures.

How to trade foreign exchange * To begin, create an account or use a demo account. * Select a platform for trading forex. * Open, track, and exit forex pair positions

An account with a forex provider, such as smartfx, is necessary for trading forex. In order to spot possible chances based on economic events like inflation announcements or interest rate decisions, many traders also keep an eye on big forex pairs like EUR/USD and USD/JPY. Economic developments can cause forex pairings to be more volatile, which can raise the possibility for gains and losses because risks can rise during these periods.

Create Success: Strategies for Effective Return on Investment (ROI)

In today's business environment that is fast-paced each penny counts and ensuring a positive ROI (ROI) is the top goal for businesses that are of any size. When you're setting up an innovative advertising campaign, investing in new technology or growing your company the key to lasting success is in your capacity to earn a profit that is greater than the initial investment.

For instance, instead of just aiming to "increase website traffic," the SMART goal is that you "increase website traffic by 20% within six months through SEO and paid advertising."

Not just that, but all of these are systems that naturally occur under capitalism!

The erosion of integral systems for a few extra pennies, the destruction of safeguards that were written in blood, the removal of public services that brought communities closer together, the shrinking size and ever increasing price of goods, and even how fast our food goes bad now due to a purposeful lack of quality control and proper storage just to push product.

Capitalism tries so hard to push profit that it will actively destroy human lives to do so, including the customers they steal from.

How Do Slot Machines Work: The Math Behind it All

The Slot Cost Since the club's administration and individual players characterize the cost in an unexpected way, the cost of a game relies upon the viewpoint of every member. The slot machine pull not entirely set in stone by the club. The higher the value, the higher the payout for a triumphant twist. Yet, gambling clubs additionally consider things like player traffic and how well slots are paying out.

On the off chance that slots aren't paying out well, gambling clubs might bring down the cost to draw in additional players. On the other hand, assuming slots are paying out well, club might bring the cost up in request to get more cash-flow. For a player that bets $10 and loses, the expense of a solitary slot pull is $10. Notwithstanding, from the administration's viewpoint, the "cost" it charges is the 10% it expects to get from speculators.

The Increase Likelihood for Players The house edge is the measurable benefit that the gambling club has over the player. The size of the house edge relies upon the game, for certain games having a tiny house edge and others having a lot bigger one.

With the house edge for a slot machine game set up, obviously the possibilities of a success favor the gambling club. One of the manners in which that gambling clubs guarantee that they have an edge is by offering different payouts for various bets.

For instance, in roulette, a bet on a solitary number pays out 35 to 1, while a bet on a red or dark number pays out simply 1 to 1. This distinction in payouts intends that, over the long haul, the gambling club will continuously beat the competition on bets where the payout is under 35 to 1. By and large, each twist of the roulette wheel will bring about one winning number and 35 losing numbers. Thus, for each 35 twists, the club will win once and lose multiple times. Since each triumphant bet pays out not exactly the aggregate sum of cash bet, the gambling club will constantly win out over the competition over the long haul.

Compensation Estimation We really want to compute the slot recompense to decide the possibilities dominating a gambling club match. Different payout frameworks utilized in slot machines are out there, yet we should accept scoring a big stake blend on a three-reel slot machine for instance.

Say there are 128 reel stops in current slot machines constrained by a PC. The three reels, each with a chance of 2/128 of getting the big stake image, put your chances of stirring things up around town at 1 out of 262,144. Thusly, the probability of every one of the three reels containing the bonanza image is 2/128 x 2/128 x 2/128, which approaches 262,144.

Further estimation shows that the likelihood of scoring a bonanza in an electronic slot machine is 0.000004. With a payout (the re-visitation of players) of 1,666 for the big stake, the compensation rate is 0.7% (likelihood times payout). By including any remaining scoring probabilities (0.1% for three cherries, 7.3% for three sevens, and so on), we come to an all out compensation of around 90%. That implies players get back around 90 pennies for each dollar put into each slot game at any point played. Check out slot zeus.

Wrapping Up Starting from the presentation of web based betting in 1994, the quantity of card sharks playing from the solace of their homes contrasted with those playing in actual areas has ascended to 96%. Consequently, playing on internet based slots beats playing on an exemplary slot machine. In any case, that doesn't detract from the physical club, as slot machines are intended to be habit-forming.

One of the more normal techniques for drawing in players into land-based settings is through rewarding slot competitions. Club realize that the bait of winning cash will make individuals want more and more, and they utilize this information to make billions of dollars every year.

Club slot machines work on calculations, and each betting scene has a house edge, conceding them a specific benefit. Thus, get sure never to bet more cash-flow than you're willing to lose. While you will most likely be unable to beat the framework, you can in any case appreciate playing slot machines without gambling an excessive amount of cash.

Simply make sure to bet mindfully and have some good times!

The Value of Ceramic Coating in Lucknow: Why It’s a Worth while Investment

Ceramic coating in Lucknow has become increasingly popular among car owners looking to protect their vehicles while also enhancing their aesthetic appeal. More than just a cosmetic upgrade, ceramic coating provides long-term protection for your car’s paint, ensuring it maintains its new-car shine for years. But how much does it cost, and is it really worth the investment? Let’s dive into the details.

Understanding Ceramic Coating

Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that bonds chemically with your car’s paintwork, forming a protective layer. Unlike traditional waxes or sealants, ceramic coatings are far more durable and long-lasting, providing superior protection against environmental hazards like dirt, bird droppings, UV rays, and even light scratches. This cutting-edge technology is designed to shield your car from wear and tear, preserving its factory finish for a longer time.

What Affects the Cost of Ceramic Coating in Lucknow?

The cost of ceramic coating in Lucknow varies based on several key factors:

Vehicle Size: Smaller cars like hatchbacks tend to cost less to coat, while larger vehicles like SUVs and luxury cars require more product and labor, increasing the price.

Coating Quality: Different grades of ceramic coatings are available, with higher-quality products offering more durability and protection. The price will increase with better-quality coatings.

Service Provider: The reputation and expertise of the service provider can also influence pricing. High-end detailing shops that specialize in ceramic coatings might charge more for their premium services.

Here’s a general breakdown of costs in Lucknow:

Small Cars (Hatchbacks): ₹10,000 to ₹15,000

Mid-Sized Cars (Sedans): ₹15,000 to ₹20,000

Large Vehicles (SUVs/Luxury Cars): ₹20,000 to ₹30,000 or more

While these figures might seem high at first, the benefits of ceramic coating far outweigh the initial cost, especially when you consider the long-term savings on maintenance and detailing.

Why Ceramic Coating is Worth the Investment

Investing in ceramic coating is not just about improving the look of your vehicle; it’s about preserving its value and minimizing future maintenance costs. Here’s why it’s worth every penny:

Long-Term Protection: Ceramic coating creates a hard, durable shield over your car’s paint, protecting it from environmental damage such as oxidation, chemical stains, and UV rays.

Enhanced Gloss and Shine: The reflective properties of ceramic coating give your car a glossy, showroom-like appearance, making it look newer for longer.

Hydrophobic Properties: One of the standout features of ceramic coating is its hydrophobic nature, which repels water and prevents contaminants from sticking to your car’s surface. This means less frequent washing and easier cleaning.

Cost-Effective in the Long Run: Although the upfront cost may seem steep, ceramic coating can save you money on regular waxing and repainting over time. You won’t need to wax your car every few months, and the coating can last for years with proper care.

Resale Value: By preserving the exterior condition of your car, ceramic coating helps maintain its resale value. A well-maintained, shiny vehicle is always more attractive to potential buyers.

1. How long does the ceramic coating process take?The process can take anywhere from one to three days, depending on the size of your vehicle and the number of coating layers applied.

2. Can ceramic coating prevent scratches?While ceramic coating provides a level of protection against light scratches, it is not a replacement for paint protection films or other physical barriers.

3. How often should I reapply ceramic coating?High-quality ceramic coatings can last 2-5 years, depending on the brand and how well you maintain your vehicle after the application.

4. Does ceramic coating require special maintenance?While ceramic-coated cars are easier to clean, regular washing is still recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaning methods to preserve the coating.
