Thank goodness for AutoModerator! I was going through the mod queue and came across this comment from this creep, Complete_Pirate4917 attempting to find someone to "talk deeply" about his fetish. 🤢

I wouldn't put it past him to send unsolicited messages to our members, so I highly recommend blocking him in advance.

Hopefully one day Reddit will change the way their ban system works, because right now it's not doing a whole heck of a lot. Stay safe out there, folks!

Swipe for GIFs comparing the initial length with today's length!

Here's the results of yesterday's chop!

I had been contemplating a chop for the past few weeks, but the universe made up my mind for me this morning.

I already had a bunch of stress fractures I was managing with Essie's Break Fix, and then last week my right thumb met my partner's knee and bent straight across. The Break Fix was honestly doing a great job handling that one, to my surprise.

Flash forward to this morning:

Left pinky got bent rough housing with my partner, and then the right pinky got clipped by the fridge handle, of all things. 🙄

I'm tired of having to maintain the breaks and fractures, so they're getting The Chop!

Here's my nails after The Chop, for those interested!

#Update:

#I want to apologize for the image I originally used in this post. While the intention was to encourage more inclusive language, the image itself used wording that was othering to trans people. That was an oversight on my part, and I understand why it was hurtful.

#I've updated the text of the post so it no longer uses that language. Unfortunately, Reddit doesn't allow me to replace or remove the image without deleting the entire post, so the image will remain even though it doesn't reflect the message I'm trying to convey.

#I'm sorry for the mistake, and I appreciate the members of our community who took the time to point it out. We're always learning, and when we get something wrong, it's important that we acknowledge it, correct what we can, and do better going forward.

#Thank you for your patience and for helping make this community welcoming and inclusive for everyone.

Just a quick reminder that not everyone who has long, natural nails is a woman.

Our community includes people of all gender identities. Posts and comments addressed to "ladies," "girls," or "you ladies" might seem harmless, but they can make other members feel like they don't belong here. Additionally, we know a lot of people use "hey guys" as a generic greeting and don't mean anything by it. Even so, it's still gendered language, and not everyone feels included by it.

When you're addressing the community, please use more inclusive terms like "everyone," "folks," "people," or "y'all" instead. It's a small change that helps make sure everyone feels welcome.

This community is for anyone who enjoys long, natural nails, regardless of gender identity or sexuality. Let's keep it that way.

#Homophobia and bigotry have no place in this community.

If you come across any homophobic comments or posts, please use the report button instead of engaging. Reports help the mod team find and remove rule-breaking content much faster, and they ensure we can keep this community welcoming for everyone. Thanks for helping us out! 💜

Keep me and my naked nails in your thoughts as we traverse the day with nothing more than oil and spacial awareness.

And before the comments come in: yes, they're stained, and no, you don't need to point it out kthxbai 🙄

Feeling petty, so I'm going to call this motherfucker out publicly.

#Warning, u/akkirules369 has been banned from this community for sending unsolicited messages, which is against the subreddit rules and the rules of this platform. Clearly this hasn't deterred him from continuing this harassment, as indicated by the amount of screenshots I have from multiple users.

We recommend preemptively blocking this creep so he doesn't harass you either.

Happy fucking Friday, everyone! 💅🏼
