Tattoos are still considered inappropriate in some jobs if they are on the head, neck, or hands. I'm not sure why! Thanks for your kindness
Absolute moral panic, this is.

05.12.2025 23:58 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Wild thing to me about this comic is that the "conservative brony" sees conservatism hate him for not being man enough, but this doesn't cause him to reassess if he wants to continue associating with it. Bronies who don't like the patriarchal nature of conservatism are equally the problem somehow.

It's clear that idealism has failed miserably in this era.

05.12.2025 20:59 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Nonetheless... I shall spare no expense this year, as long as I only buy from this one store on this credit card... I'll figure it all out. I have to make up for last year's flop.
I think the key will be to give myself PLENTY of time to browse and think.
It could still be just as cheap, but only if I buy certain clothing brands. But I hate buying clothes as gifts because I have to account for everyone's sizes after getting that info somehow, and trying to guess their taste when I normally don't pay attention to what they wear.

These fucking suck by comparison. Damn.
