Can only image the type of shit she’s been through with a tattoo like that.
She is extremely pro-egg

It's also a song lyric

They've clipped my wings again
Tore them apart and then
Left me
No use to fly away to
My yesterday
Of freedom
My eyes died back that day
Seeing the hurt I may have done
Beat me instead of them
Pain is my only zen
Of fun
The tattoo's message brings
The tattoo's message brings back memories of Catholic school when at a surprisingly early age we were thought about martyrs, mortification of the flesh and the possible virtues of self-flagellation. It surely worked in getting our attention. If I remember it correctly, the practice helps offset some sins but I can't tell for sure if it works as I've never tried it myself.
Maybe this woman took a similar class? If the (Amazon Prime-shipped) shoe fits...

Interesting..
I'd suggest it evokes an image of a sibling growing up in an abusive environment...
Or a mother with an abusive
Or a mother with an abusive partner. Whatever it is, it doesn't seem like ink that someone in a safe situation would have. :^(
No non-awful interpretation comes to mind
Zero beating is the right quantity of beating. I hope she gets the help she needs, and that they do as well.
Probably not
Unfortunately I think this is probably about domestic violence, and shielding children from it.

I thought Parker Hill Ave is now Donna Summer Street?
It's ceremonial only
Love to love ya baby...
Porch Pirates are the worst
We had to install a camera to try and reduce the thefts.
Tattoo
I can’t believe that I’m the person that knows this, but the phrase is a line from the song “Lemon”, by Katy Rose, which was used in the movie Thirteen:

I don’t know what the line signified in the song, and even less what it signified to the person who chose to have it tattooed across her shoulders, or even that she got it from the song or the movie at all. It’s just another detail in the story.
Unique Identifyer
Makes it easy to pin these on the right person, too.
Glad…
…she’s staying hydrated.

Q: Why do you hang sound that sadist?
A: Beats me.
