it’s surprising how often people tell me they have had syphilis after i tell them that’s part of my research area.

yeah there was actually a big surge in syphilis after the 2002 Sydney Gay Games! people travelling from other countries & a lot of sex going on.

remember that syphilis is very easily treated (along with other STIs like chlamydia and gonorrhoea), so go get an STI check! if you are having casual sex, especially if you are a man who has sex with men, you should be getting a sexual health check 3-4 times a year. your local sexual health clinic can offer you testing, treatment, and even help you with contacting your previous partners anonymously!

if you're not sure what is involved with an STI check, it's a blood test for things like syphilis and HIV, as well as a urine test for chlamydia and gonorrhoea, and for men who have sex with men, you will also be given a throat swab and a rectal swab (that you can do yourself) for the same. it's pretty easy!

It’s late and I’m super tired and I just can’t be bothered at all to draw anymore, so this is gonna be my INKtobering for today. ;)

I got to do my VERY FIRST real tattoo!! I’m so happy. Thank you so much, Shannon, for your trust, your patience, your being perfect. You have no idea how much this means to me. You were an incredible first victim. 💕💕💕

Also a huge THANKS, of course, to Linda, who is the best teacher I could possibly imagine! 😘

I just can’t express how grateful I feel.

this is better than a whole lot of more experienced tattoo artists I've seen, those lines are super straight & the whip shading is just lovely. having the fundamentals of drawing & painting makes a big difference.
