Tattoo Advice

Ok, this is gonna be a bit of a long one, but I think context is necessary.

When I was very young, I was blonde, rambunctious, and precocious. My uncle, who was a fan of Clavin and Hobbes started referring to me as Calvin, buying me collections of the comics at every birthday. I grew out of my blonde into brown hair, but I never grew out of the love for Calvin and Hobbes.

I even wanted to name my son Calvin. That didn't come to pass, but when I say my two-year old son is the spitting image of Calvin, I say so as objectively as possible.

I want my next tattoo to symbolize that connection and bond. I have plenty of panels and images I can pull from to evoke that imagination, wit, and love for exploring. But I want to incorporate Dad somehow, establishing a connection between father and son, like he was once like that, looking over his son as he explores the world.

I have the whole collection and plan on dilligently parsing through it for panels, strips, or images. But I thought I would turn as I start to do so.

Does anyone have any ideas for panels or strips that would evoke that same feel?

Exercise & Diet Book Recs

Hey everyone,

Sorry if this is a commonly posted question. I pop into the sub every once in a while and never saw it asked, but that's limited knowledge.

I'm a 38 year old man who has lifted for most of my adult life, though never the more advanced moves. I'm looking for some books on exercise and diet specifically catered to a vegan diet. I'm not looking to increase my mass too much, but I've certainly stalled in the muscle growth department. I try to get enough protein and think I do a decent job, but I don't keep strict track of macros as most do on the sub.

I remember before I went vegan, I used to read diet and exercise books that would talk about serving size for maintaining and growth. They'd give sample meal plans and such. I haven't really found any good ones tailored to vegans. I doubt the same measurements for animal protein work for tofu or seitan.

I know there are plenty of online resources, but I'm old school. I like the physical books. There's something about it.

So, I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for vegan diet and exercise books that provide frame of reference for serving size of various foods and protein sources. Providing routines and/or meal plans would be a plus.

Thank you!
