Jess, I've been (obv) thinking about this, too, and am concluding that bottom-line, it's simply another example of the compulsion encouraged by the industry to do something—anything—to our faces in what you aptly call the Sisyphean trend cycle. Put it in, take it out, put it in, take it out, we're all just getting f*cked. xo

Amen. An astute summation.

I am reminded of cocaine addicts that were addicted to shooting the drug. They were as addicted to the needle as the drug.

Perhaps more so.

That is the feel I get from folks and these procedures.

The unfilling is just making space to fill again.

I am grateful that needles were never my gig.

Fortunately or not for me, by body comes with its own form of pain. I do not have to seek it out.

I hope we find a space of grace for ourselves and each other soon.

Filling, unfilling; the polarity of emptyness...

So, yes, "space of grace" is definitely appropriate!
