I’m not in your industry but I briefly flirted with the idea. I’ve had a lot of my drawings, for better and worse lol, be used by others for tattoos. When I was considering it I was primarily doing apprentice work as a piercer, which in South Florida was (is still maybe) pretty common to do both.

I’ve never done a piercing on someone that I haven’t done on myself. Had a friend come in for an eyebrow and insisted I do it. They bled a lot, more than usual but otherwise everything was ok, the pierce was fine, they loved it. That was it for me. I couldn’t settle myself with screwing something like that up

So I would appreciate knowing you take your role seriously. Maybe try to reframe the stress you feel into the honor you have to be trusted to do what you do. Unsure if you did any of your leg work but if so, as a fan of pure black I’d trust you

She did an interview on Soft White Underbelly. I’m pretty sure she never went to the island, she supposedly didn’t even entirely realize how many other victims there were.

That said I still picked up her vote from the interview. Not justifying it, but it felt to me like her anger at the situation was among the greatest motivations
