LOL I know that feeling!! Once you start, you just can’t stop! This ship tattoo I just got is part of my Pirates inspired arm - I wanna get a Redhead pin-up and some other things from the ride on it!

That means a lot to me, you have no idea! I owe so much of it to my artist who really just takes my ideas and makes magic happen. He gets that I want them to be Disney but not *TOO* Disney, lol!

I’ve considered smacking that logo on the side of my car more times than I should probably admit to.

If I could’ve made this tattoo scratch-and-sniff, I absolutely woulda.

I’m a dolt and uploaded the wrong version, lol. The correct version is “DANTE’S INN - 9 FLOORS OF FIRE & BRIMSTONE.” I had the Seven Deadly Sins on my mind, blah blah blah…

Hahaha! That’s “Rolly” kind of you to say!

I’ll be there!! Vending the day away!

That means mountains, truly! You know me haha, I’ll take any opportunity to go as “Crump” as I can! 😅

I'm sorry, I don't understand?

I'll be keeping Instagram... for now... only because I'd like to have some public depository for my work outside of my website? But FB and X especially are just vitriolic, nonsense hellscapes anymore. I need to do what you did and extract the valuable connections/info from them and then DELETE!

And maybe I just need to take the jump to find that out for myself, and hope that the work I've done so far and the clients I have would be enough to get by.

I feel like that's where I'm at, and where I've been at for a hot minute - that the absolute mental anguish it gives me far outweighs any professional benefit! I *do* get business and sales through FB and X, so I'd definitely feel the loss... but man, at what cost?

That part! I'm ngl there's a part of me that really yearns for that level of meaningful connection with friends. I miss that, and I need that back. It really is just the thought of losing future opportunities/not having eyes on my work that's holding me back, but it's just all so exhaustive anymore.

Truly friends, even a $5 donation would go sooooooooo far. Thank you in advance for any donation you can make; let’s make hearse-tory together!!
