DIY Christina Piercing

You know, it’s almost 4:30AM, so I’m on day three of no sleep, to say nothing of the medication I’m on that’s supposed to make me sleep. So not only am I generally delirious from over a decade of working in erotica, but I’m also delirious from three days of no sleep… so I can’t really tell if I’m awake or dreaming. This photo leads me to believe that I’m having a good dream. Uncensor if you want.

“I am not special” tattoo

This is actually done in mirror writing (I’ve flipped the photo), so this is what the wearer sees in the mirror every morning. Tattoo by Billy at Dreamtime Tattoos in Springfield, IL… Now, I hate saying this because it pains me to criticize anyone’s tattoo, but I believe this is unhealthy. I think that if you have a tattoo like this, it’s negative conditioning, and eventually you are convinced it’s true. But I’m going to object —

You are special!

Finger and Toe Dermal Anchors

You know, when Phil shouted across the office that we had some pictures of dermal anchors on toes and fingers, I thought it was a pretty lame idea… But now that I see them, I’ve got to admit they look really cool, sort of like “bandless rings” or something. Someone needs to file a patent, ha. Anyway, these were done in 16ga by Trevor at Urban Art in Mesa.

Holstein Cow Tattoo

You know, now that I think about it, I don’t get that many farming specific tattoos. So as a person who lived for a while on a dairy farm (and had plenty of Holsteins that I had to get up at 5AM to milk) I kind of liked getting this picture of Jukka’s tattoo… As a point of trivia, Finland (where they live) has more farmland per capita than nearly anywhere in the world!

Cheap Jewelry Sucks

Folks, this is why you shouldn’t buy cheap crap jewelry. I’m thinking about posting who made this but I haven’t decided yet whether I want the legal fight. But I will tell you that this jewelry was not removed from a human — it was in storage for a few months in a drawer for a few months in its original packaging… Think what would have happened if it had been in, say, a tongue for a few months!

Good jewelry is expensive because the materials being used are high quality. Do you really want to skimp on this? Maybe this helps illustrate why a good barbell doesn’t cost $2.99.
