I'm considering getting a tattoo on the back of one or both of my hands. The ideas I've got are as follows:

The X and O from my icon/emblem

The 'Stray' emblem itself,

A pentacle, like my partner

Just the Venus symbol ♀

The transgender gender sign ⚧ (some redundant phrasing, I'm aware)


Or the anarchy symbol,

iu


These are just the ideas I've had so far.


EDIT: I should not have asked for actual advice on the EoF, that's my mistake, lol

Going for the everlasting job stopper approach to the world huh.

If I was going to do the hand thing (super painful by all accounts from people I know that have otherwise serious coverage -- lot of bone, lot of nerves, not much fat and even if you go in for the American approach to the world it is still not much of a shield) I would get something actually interesting both to you and someone that you might care to interact with. Of your suggestions then what is not boring or edgy teenager from the 90s and given about as much reverence (granted anarchy symbol has been a corporate thing since at latest the time Nevermind/Smells Like Teen Spirit went corporate, more likely when Sex Pistols Anarchy in the UK had its time in the sun 20 years earlier) the stray symbol might be something. https://www.hottopic.com/product/anarchy-symbol-t-shirt/10947011.html saying it all really, pentacle might have a similar problem but is more likely to be mistaken for the classic pentagram (not to mention it could be like getting a tattoo of a partner's name when you might break up and... oh dear). Such things happen to all symbols (it is actually a problem in the design of such things -- the pirate flag, such that it was ever a thing, might once have inspired terror but there is a decent chance your grandfather had it on his lunchbox, now imagine designing something to warn off the people 400 years from now from your radioactive dump pile) but might as well go with something that does something to begin with.

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
    +1
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm

    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
