For a second year in a row, Vegas will once again become an awkward home where I'll live and study within the same building for one week, get a glimpse at the best body jewellery, and if I'm lucky enough, get the opportunity to tag along with others on new adventures and create social bonds. … Continue reading Pre-APP2017 nerves

During the APP 2016 conference, an issue concerning female genital piercing in the UK was brought to my attention. It's probably safe to say that most people are aware that female genital mutilation (FGM) is a thing that unfortunately exists (generally in third world countries where women's rights often don't exist), which is totally against the … Continue reading FGA vs. FGM
If someone would've told me that I'd end up reversing my largest lip piercing, I wouldn't have believed them one bit. The last number have years have seen a lot of jewellery removal, never to be re-inserted again. My labret was the only piercing I felt like I wanted to keep. All of the little ones were … Continue reading Mod monday; lip reconstruction
The idea of spending money on a biological inconvenience to create biohazardous waste to fill holes we dig for massive scale accumulation which will eventually become a "conservation area" that smells like farts just doesn't compute as logical to me. Now I know people are probably tired of the feminist angle. I can't say it's … Continue reading Lady problems
Someone once told me that time feels like it goes by quicker as you age. Thirty is only a couple years away, and as things go forward I've gotten used to a lot of different patterns and habits. Lately the remedial and seemingly tiny tasks have been getting to me. Shaving in particular is one of those … Continue reading Au naturel
There's a common message being projected right now, and that's how nobody saw this coming. It came as a total shock to everyone. Nobody expected it, and it was written off as a joke. Now, I'm not American. I don't live in the states, and I'm not really into politics or media (or at least … Continue reading Trump
It's finally happening. The endless paranoia should end. No more scrutinizing every handled object that's been sitting around. No more panic attacks whenever a piece of fluff or dirt has appeared in a new location. No more coping with the most itchy and painful bites I've ever experienced. The exterminator is coming. Some new tenants … Continue reading Stress
Earlier this week, Jessy and myself quietly celebrated the fifth anniversary of the day we made things "Facebook official" between us. I beat my face into a smokey dark grey/black and gold double winged look (paired with a nude lip and the biggest natural looking lashes I own), we enjoyed a meal and visited Mexico … Continue reading The right to become sterile
My very first year Being a hermit kind of affects every single little aspect of who you are in its own way. Some people may end up having issues in social situations. Some might even develop a problem with just getting themselves out of the house. Some gain fears and anxiety over everyday tasks. And … Continue reading APP 2016
This image shows my ears as I write this, and boy have they been through hell! Currently, I sport a pair of 6g(4mm) initial lobes that I had re-pierced about nine weeks ago, a set of 7/16"(11mm) conch punches, and a recent reintroduction to jewellery for the high cartilage piercing I've been wearing naked that … Continue reading Mod monday; earlobe evolution
