Well, 2023 has really been something, hasn’t it? It’s funny how you don’t really realize how much has happened until you look back on it. I feel like the heat has flown by, but then I look at it and realize I did a LOT. Especially with tattooing. I had the privilege to work on […]
November has come and that means the slow season has as well. Which is good for you, because that means I have openings! Here’s a few recent designs I’d love to do. Obviously I’m open to whatever ideas you may have, but you’d be extra cool to get something in this style, and I’ll be […]

First off, this isn’t a pity piece. If anything, it’s an attempt at self empowerment. It’s taking a shot at owning a feeling that’s been enthroned in my subconscious since my earliest childhood memories. Not because I wasn’t loved, or cared for, or given affection; but because at the core, it’s part of who I […]
When you manage mental illness, you have to learn to separate the emotions of the illness from who you truly are. The sadness isn’t you, the chaos isn’t you, it’s all symptomatic if the illness. You have no choice but to experience it, but you can block it off. Compartmentalization is your friend. You have […]
Remember that time I decided I’d post a blog every Saturday? That was two Saturdays ago and I already missed the second one. I guess that’s just life with ADHD, right? Or bipolar disorder. Sometimes symptoms overlap so much I can’t tell the difference. What I do know is that both of them provide me […]
I’ve been learning a lot lately about what it means to be bipolar. There’s a lot of character traits I possess that I never realized were symptoms. There’s also a lot of symptoms I didn’t realize I possessed as character traits. For example, when hypomanic, bipolar people tend to have increased confidence, often to the […]
The sounds ringing through my head are only echoes now. Echoes of something foreign. A role I played, in some fever dream. Warhorses on the ashes of enemies, crushing bones beneath hooves. Flayed alive in all the splendor of hell. Even seeing days beyond that is a gift. I could at any time fall to […]
Coming out of such a long running episode has been incredibly strange. The more time that passes, the more I realize just how long this was going on. My attitude has slowly been reverting back to how I was in 2018. Motivated, positive, driven. There’s something different about it, though. I’m not the same. I’ve […]
I’m going to ruffle so many feathers tonight. And bunch all the panties up. Why you ask? How? Because I’m pissed at tattooing again and I’m constantly begging to be at war with someone. So what is it I’m bitching about? Strap in and get ready for a ride, because I’m coming organized. Ignorant style: […]
