I usually get a new piercing (or tattoo when I can afford it) this time of year, but because of covid travel restrictions, it'll have to wait. Not complaining, just a bit bummed I won't make my annual daytrip with some friends to [nearby big city] and get stabbed. Anyone else put their body mod plans on-hold for 2020?

Probably related: I'm thinking about stretching my ears bigger. They're 16mm right now, but I'm thinking I'd be happier with them closer to 19-20mm...

    I really like tattoos but I have this bizarre mental block where I'm so scared I'll regret getting it if it's not just perfect that I can't bring myself to pull the trigger. It's dumb and I know it'll look cool but I just can't push past it for some reason.

    Piercings on the other hand, super fun, got a few different ear spots, one for the septum, threw around the idea of getting a few more personal 👀 ones but Idk if that's me.

      definitely go for the personal ones if you like them. i have quite a few piercings and my favorites are all hidden from plain sight 👍

        Hehehe maybe I will. Once covid is over I'll look into a place that can get it done and see how I feel about it.
