Quantcast

A picture is worth a thousand words, but a tattoo is worth a million. I am extremely uneasy in the presence of needles and more importantly, a commitment-phobe, so I'm tattoo-free and plan to stay that way, but still, a girl can dream can't she? Trends in body art are ever-changing, and the ability to find a design that's timeless and also fits your personality can be difficult, but it can be helpful to look to a few of your favorite celebs for tatt inspo. Two of the most recent celebs to get new ink are Chrissy Teigen and John Legend, who just got their first tattoos as a tribute to their family and couldn't be more geeked about it.

John's tattoo reads: "John, Luna, Miles," and Chrissy's says "Chrissy, Luna, Miles". Chrissy also got a small heart tattoo on her fingertip, just because she's G like that. She joked on Instagram:

"Hey guys please don't talk to us unless u have tattoos we are a cool tattoo family now and we only want to talk to other tattoo families (srry if this seems harsh) Thank you thank you @winterstone. You are not only incredibly talented but you are very kind and delightful and welcome over any time!!"

Critics of body art often don't understand that tattoos are a form of expression that can symbolize a lifelong bond and visually represent your personal identity. If you or someone you know is addicted to ink, it can likely be because of the therapeutic effects associated with getting a tattoo.

The sensation of the needle causes your body to release endorphins, which are your body's natural pain relievers, and can trigger a number of emotions. If you're thinking of getting a tatt but need some design inspiration, paying homage to the ones you love most is a great place to start.

Aries-April-2025-monthly-horoscopes

April is a month to slow down and to fully grasp what has been. The month starts in fiery Aries Season, but we are also in the thick of Retrograde Season as we begin the month as well. Thankfully, Mercury finally goes direct on April 7, after being retrograde mid-March, and communication matters are clearing up. This is a month of mental clarity, a fresh start, and not being afraid to dream a little bigger.

On April 12, there is a Full Moon in Libra, and this Full Moon brings relationship and financial matters full circle. This is the time to let go of what doesn’t make you feel balanced or in harmony and to create space for more peace to enter your life. Venus goes direct in Pisces on the same day, after being retrograde since March 1, and love is healing. With Venus now direct, there are more opportunities for commitment and longevity in love, and there is overall a greater feeling of romance, receptivity, and compassion in the air now.

Turns Out Sober Sex Might Be The Underrated Secret To Better Orgasms

Hmph. I know there has got to be at least three times a week when our grandparents will hear about something that folks present as being revolutionary that causes them to just roll their eyes, shrug their shoulders, and continue to go on with whatever they were doing. Listen, call it old-fashioned thinking if you want to but if you want to avoid a lot of unnecessary regret in this life, hang out with your elders (and actually listen to what they are saying) sometimes — they’ve already been where you are and, since when it comes to them, you can’t say the same, you just might get a few gems (in fact, I can almost guarantee it).

Take sobergasms, for instance. Oh, I’m willing to bet that a senior in your life has mentioned them, just in another way, before. If you’ve never heard of the term, it’s actually a pretty good one because it means just what you think it does: SOBER ORGASMS. And just to make sure that we all are on the same page, it’s sex — that hopefully includes orgasms — that involves very little to no alcohol.
