finally at that age where i'm thinking i should get a tattoo. not bc i feel strongly about it, just seems like a waste not to. i've got so much skin i'm not using
#feels so selfish like. all this skin what am i saving it for?#open to design suggestions! (please make me regret this offer)#maybe some deep sea horrors. a pretty watercolor of a gulper eel#once saw a person on the subway with various Skeleton Tattoos on all their limbs#i respected their commitment to the theme#but more than that i respected how all the skeletons were engaged in Activities#dancing in a ballgown. juggling its own (and two other???) skulls. swordfighting. being a mermaid skeleton#ANYWAY. the only reason i haven't already gotten tattoos is i just couldn't be bothered#i'm old enough to know i don't have any strong-but-potentially-temporary feelings driving me towards it#aesthetically i prefer decorated to non-decorated surfaces. but i'm not artistic or thrilled with commitment#honestly it feels like sheer laziness. indecisiveness--nay. immaturity!--that i HAVEN'T gotten a tattoo yet#letting all this blank canvas go to waste. tut tut i need to grow up and be an adult and get a tattoo sleeve already.#really i've put off my responsibilities long enough#(in fairness i DID at one time have 18 different piercings)#(but i took most of them out bc they interfere with wearing headphones and/or shoving my face in my pillow during Sleep Time)#(i only kept the nape piercing bc oddly enough it ended up being the most convenient. and the least painful to get now i think about it.)#(neck piercing? no problem. normal pair of earrings? Tribulations And Suffering. i don't make the rules i just poke them with a stick.)

How much bodies can change is actually insane 🙈
#I think I’m going to end up having two surgeries honestly#which I don’t love#but I think I want my stomach and my arms done#it would be a mini arm lift tho#bc it’s really just the armpit area that bothers me#my legs are fine tho#me#selfie#snap#girls with tattoos#cute#weightloss#before and after#weight loss#tw#tw diet#tw weight#tw body

made the gaang with this picrew cause i have too much time on my hands, enjoy
#almost didn't make suki#so disappointed in myself fr#it's like if they were normal teenagers but i gave zuko and aang their scar and tattoo because they looked wrong without them#dimpled aang and suki supremacy#i gave zuko a hearing aid in his scarred ear because he canonically can't hear well out of it#(i'm aware that hearing aid probably can't help with damaged eardrums maybe they can i don't actually know so sorry)#gave sokka glasses cause i'm projecting and i feel like he's strained his eyes so much over the years#freckled aang sokka (on his neck down so you can't really see it) and suki supremacy#gave sokka a bunch of face moles cause i can#gave toph acne cause she's the youngest in my heart (yes i know her and aang are the same age)#i gave the gaang as whole many piercings and i'm not ashamed (aang's the only one without one idk why don't ask)#atla#avatar the last airbender#the gaang#aang#katara#sokka#zuko#toph#suki#also this is how i had to learn that suki is the only one out of the gaang that has like actual lips at all times#(as in her character design)#OH i also gave aang and toph scars (aang = arms toph = face) because it spoke to me and felt right idk#also if you squint you can see blemishes on zuko's neck cause again it just felt right#i'm actually so proud of these AHHHH#team avatar#didn't even mean to make a pattern with the backgrounds just worked out that way heheh#EDIT: remade the boys cause i used the wrong sized clothes and it was bothering me SO MUCH (zuko's hair is longer now let's all cheer)

a little pain now, to save a great deal more pain later
[flintlock fortress is a collaboration with @dxppercxdxver]
#em draws stuff#flintlock fortress#team fortress 2#blood#today on the em cupola show: wild self-indulgence. but hey I feel Bad so I'll draw what I Like. and today that's medical procedures.#someone leaned over my shoulder while I was drawing this and asked 'is that bloodletting' and they were Almost Right so I'm endlessly proud#in fact it is smallpox inoculation!#sorry to everyone who I have bothered with my Smallpox Talk in recent memory but It Will Happen Again.#the game style itself is kind of rockwell and leyendecker-y to me so I wanted to do something with a similar look to their work#had a lot of goals for this piece and I think I really did achieve all of them quite nicely#could I keep these guys recognizable without showing their full faces? yes I think so!#could I make 'getting a mild case of smallpox with the lads' seem a bit romantic even? yes to that too.#also. scout tattoos make an appearance. (do not go looking for them in any other art of him on account of I Forgor)#and a new look for ansel (this man dresses Boring but that is no fun for me to draw)#'backstory relevant' I say as I do not discuss any of these guys' backstories again.#'that's for us to know and for you to find out' I say while giving you no way at all to find out#have been in a constant state of 'by gosh having a little less blood in me would make this situation better' for several days now#and while I am using Normal methods to improve the situation drawing such things does work a bit to heal the mind#'we're doing just fine' says local guy who is madly drawing the same guys over and over again

why is my mother completely fine with me getting top surgery but gives me the silent treatment for a week every time she finds out i'm getting another piercing / tattoo
#especially odd when she used to be a goth and she and my dad had loads of piercings#like more than i've ever had at one time#i don't know i think it bothers me a lot when people are weird and annoying about tattoos because like#they're a permanent feature on your body and they're a form of self expression#it's really rude to act like they're gross and ugly when they're not on YOUR body#and also i said i'm getting a tattoo because i'm miserable and i want to feel something and like#knowing i'm getting one is a reason to try and make it through the week#and her immediate response is oh for fuck's sake why are you doing this they're so ugly#ok girl by e

#tw vent i guess??#came here just to post smth that i'm most probably gonna delete later then leave#but aughhhh last week has been SO bad i really really needed to get it off my chest#had the final boss of a sick victorian child episode for like two weeks AND tons of college stuff to do-#-AND a test on a subject that i'm horrible at (and that i'm gonna fail fs)#AND i was supposed to get a septum which is something that i'd been looking forward to for literal YEARS#but upon telling my parents about it (cause they're kinda strict and ig they would like to know) i changed my mind#cause my mom took it SO personally.... like it was HER face not mine?🤨 but hey!#and although i had the decency to at the very least let her know that i was getting a piercing (which wasn't necessary for me to do but-#-i did it anyway out of consideration for her)#she has the fucking SPINE to tell me how i could do whatever the fuck i wanted if i cared more about getting it than about her opinion-#-but she would always think it was disgusting and that i had no right to get angry at her if she didn't look me in the face or#wanted to walk or be with me cause it'd make her embarrassed to be with me in public if i had that shit on my face.#and it hurts a lot not just bc of the fuckass piercing. but bc my parents (esp my mom) always react like this whenever i make a little-#-change on my appearanceor cut my hair or buy oversized clothes or whateverand like#if she's gonna be soooo hurt when i get a tiny piece of metal on my face. how is she gonna react when i tell her i want to get tattoos.#start taking hormones. change my name. get top and bottom surgery. be completely changed physically.#is she gonna die is the world gonna end. is she just going to stop talking to me forever.#because a piercing is not just a decoration. to me right now it's an extension of the changes i want to undergo on my body.#it's a step forward to looking the way i want too look#so a rejection to any change i do on my body feels like an indirect rejection to be being trans. and the fact that they're unaware of#just how deep their rejection cuts (bc i'm not out) makes me even angrier at them.#and upon the realization that if i ever came out to my mom (and the rest of my family too tbh) she would react *exactly* like this.#well. i did not take that very well.#wasn't very demure of her to say all that. not very mindful not very cutesy :/#also been sh-ing more bc if this and ughhh what a shit week. hope this one's better#also. i decided i'm still gonna get a septum this year. don't know when but fuck all that. it's gonna bother them all the same#no matter what time of the year i get it done. or if i do it in a year or two or five. so who gives a shit.#anyway. gonna delete later probably#📎

It’s pumpkin spice season which means it’s also bath season
Time for me to thrive
#aesthetic#mine#bathtime#tattoos#tattoed girls#snake tattoo#black and gray tattoo#band tattoo#of mice & men#I really gotta finish this leg up#the knee bothers me#also I learned I can white balance against my own skin so that was fun#I’m so pale#it’s not even funny

I've had my conch piercing for almost 6 months and it's healing really well I think (or at least I'm not having any issues with it at all anymore). so I'm now thinking what piercing(s) I want to get next. even though I had already decided the healing process is too annoying and I should wait a couple years.... kinda want to get my nose pierced now (worst idea ever)
#... because even though I've done immunotherapy for my dust allergy it does still bother me sometimes#and I feel like that would be annoying as hell#plus I get nosebleeds way more than normal. I don't think that would be fun.....#so yeah bad idea. I'm probably gonna ask my piercer at my next appointment. hopefully she'll talk me out of it#my nose is also just really weird so do I really want to draw attention to that?! lol.#I'm hoping we'll be able to put a shorter bar in my conch piercing at this appointment. at the previous two there was still a bump so she#wanted to wait. and then I was sick last time and had to cancel#so yeah idk#I wish I didn't like piercings#they're so pretty and cool. I want so many! but I hate having unhealed ones.#I hate needles and pain and having things stuck in my skin. so it's just...... dumb#if my social anxiety wasn't still an issue I'd probably focus on tattoos... but that is so much harder than just saying 'hi I want this#piercing' 😭#personal

Mommy issues this daddy issues that, where my homies with older sibling issues at?
#just saw my sister is at a concert with our aunt#no one invited me#or hell even told me about it#i would've wanted to go#but realistically i guess it wouldn't because in reality we dont have anything in common anyways and they probably just went to drink#and be fucking idiots#but its just the premise i guess#not to mention she'd rather go out with our aunt... the one who knowingly brought a predator into my sisters home#WHO SEXUALLY ASSAULTED HER DAUGHTER (my niece) IN HER OWN HOME#like... shed rather go out and hang out with HER... over me?#i really am that unlovable huh#and then she has her husbands sisters#shes closer to them than she ever has been or will be with me#has a matching tattoo with the one closest to my age#goes and gets pedicures with the one that has the same name as me#and shes not even her husband's family shes his brothers wife#i love to pretend like it doesn't bother me#but it fucking hurts my heart#my heart fucking hurts typing this#like a physical ache#hated me my whole life for just existing and nothing has changed#my post#personal#sister#family

wait actually um. tattooed dick. sorry i’ll leave
this made me laugh so hard i didn’t even make any noises 😭😭 just gasping oh my god. but yeah. the idea of big scars doesn’t bother me for any part of my body (<- i am fond of literally all of my scars) and a scar distorting or breaking up my tattoo is fine, but for some reason i don’t want a tattooed dick unless it’s for like, shading and colouring etc
#it might be because my tattoo is flowers though also and i would want different flowers if they really had to be there#alsoooo you having questions and talking about it doesn’t bother me (i wouldn’t respond or i’d let you know if i was uncomfortable) but let#me know if i’m being too candid <3#tw emoji

freak (affectionate)
#i just like looking at it#pretty face pretty face#love how spiky tieflings are in this game#got a very slight tattoo mod just to get rid of the forehead flame#it also moved the bottom part down a touch which is whatever#i wasn't bothered by it being on the lip but it doesn't bother me either way i just wanted the flame gone#if i really cared i would learn how to extract these fools into blender#and i would give it body tats#but i'm.................lazy#i watched a video about how to do it and i went 'wow that's way too much work'#i know there's body tat mods but none exactly what i want and also installing unique tav seems like a process#i shall use my imagination#fel's bg3#oc: canto

I get paid to spend most of my evenings with one of my coworkers constantly taking the piss out of me but also featuring a hype song they came up with completely on the fly and apparently I still don't know how to feel about this weirdo /pos
#“you spelled them wrong” bc my nametag#“what was that?” w suspicious eyes bc i was talking to a lady and she said nice to meet you & took the time to read my name off my nametag#*aggressively repeating my full name to me like it's a football chant if i enter their peripheral vision and they have the opportunity to*#“word on the street is you listen to boygenius” bc i mentioned it to a mutual friend when we went out on time#(i then absolutely got “oh of course she's your favourite” bc i decided julien baker was the prettiest bc tattoos but lucy dacus solo is a+)#i once told them that the most colour in my wardrobe is from plaid shirts and got a sarcastic “oh of course it is”#there's probably more but i cant be bothered to name them especially#as i said totally get the piss ripped out of me when we're on shift together but i wouldn't change it for the world bc i do love it really.

I’m really in my early 20s era like Im kind of doing all the things that ppl in their early 20s actually do that i havent been doing this entire time
#ok not ALL the things but some of them#Im kind of excited to live in a roommate situation like i was really scared at first#and thought it would probably be really hard for me and maybe it will be I dont know yet#but forsome reason i feel like itll be at LEAST ok and maybe even really good for me#Like mentally#It's also just a huge stroke of luck and generosity and convenience that it even has worked out the way it has#Tbh i cant be bothered writing out all the details but trust me#and then when i get back from this TRIP#to TEXAS where we are going to THREE concerts and i MIGHT get a tattoo#and we are sleeping in the CAR basically the whole time#(very early 20s type vibe to me)#im going to learn to drive which will open a whole new world basically I think#after i get a car#which I dont think will be very difficult#like financially#for me#AND i finally have my kitty. my own meow... so it's all very cohesive

idk what it says about me when my first response to someone hurting me is immediate apathy but. it is what it is
#i have been nagging my friends both irl and in our gc#to let me know if theyre coming to the tattoo convention tomorrow#they ALL know how badly i wanted to go since this is the first year ill be able to#and only two people replied yes or no in our gc#the rest didnt even bother and i brought it up so manh fucking times#then yesterday was the bday of one of those friends#found it odd he never said anything about a bday party but maybe he wasnt up#for it so nbd!#my other friend texts me just now#to INVITE me to his party thats in a few hours bc! he forgot to invite me!#he remembered to invite EVERYONE else in our gc including random other people#but forgot me :) who he says is 'a good friend' and keeps asking me for medical advice and favors#i told my friend i cant make it and she said 'hes sad about that'#i replied i dont care lol#but not in a 'im mad but petty' kinda way i just. really dont care rn#i do a little since im posting this obviouslg#but also this just made me. lose any care i had for this person?#i know i can become very cold and mean if im hurt#and right now i feel. nothing towards this guy whose supposed to be my friend#this became my defense mechanism the past year when im hurt#i just stop caring and idk if its the medical field#that changed me into this but. idc ¯\_(ツ)_/¯#delete later#just had to vent for a sec bc i dont wanna tell my friend all of this#the last thing i wanna do is put a common friend in the middle of all of this#ah well

#it really makes me sad that#a lot of the stereotypical expressions of queerness or gender non-conformance e.g. makeup tattoos and piercings#all involve doing things to my body that i am physically uncomfortable with#i'm so bothered by needles that even thinking about the process of getting a tattoo makes me queasy#and i once got so overwhelmed by the sensation of putting on stage makeup that i nearly fainted in the dressing room#i want to try makeup some day but can't get over my negative experiences#personal ramblings
