i was a member of my local chapter for a brief period before i learned that one of the leaders was a horrible person and the rest of the leaders were covering it up for him, so i left. thats chapter specific, but just a reminder that these problems still exist in some chapters. despite it being significantly smaller than PSL, i liked the people more. it seemed like more people actually had read theory. however it was a very white, cis, and straight group from what i could tell. there were also very few women and fem-presenting folks in general, at their social events i was one of maybe three. this did lead to a kinda dude-bro-y environment that wasn’t incredibly toxic, but i just don’t enjoy that kind of atmosphere myself and if you don’t, be warned. their events are great though. sorry i can’t say more, it was a really brief stint. there just isnt a lot to say about them in general though because they’re really small. they do have some really cool members though, i met some who participated in the chicano movement of the 60s-70s.
for some of these you might need somebody who has a lot of experience with fine line technique (like the first and last would need those in my opinion). for the more geometric ones, anyone who does clean geometric stuff. i would just be wary that, depending on size, these will take a really long time and artists usually charge by the hour.
hell yeah comrade i took a huge rip to this after reading
it’s not unregulated. it’s still prescription, it’s just not controlled. like an antibiotic or something. i don’t think you’re allowed to put prescription medication in products like that.
still have my old dysphoria hoodie from the closet days when i was young and the days just after coming out. an ex stole it and i was able to retrieve it. its a nice hoodie and still fits well, i just cant bear to see myself in it again.
