This needs a follow up video about scars - what they do to your skin, what cells are involved and why they can stay around for years or your entire life.

[@DarkR0ze]

or specifically, scarification

[@MrFlammingskull]

Emotional Scars too

[@broodaiamdewey622]

I'm pretty sure scars are just the cells that can't be replaced. They're a result of your dermis being destroyed in that area. The way they were earned determines if it's raised or lowered. Basically, if you have a wound like a cut it will likely protrude. If it's something like an infection scar or from bulging skin it will shrink into the body. It'd be like your skin trying to stitch itself back together by contracting or building tissue around the area that's missing.

[@laurejohannesen1024]

That would be an interesting idea that could also cover how getting stitches would affect a wounded area

[@kaxcommentssomethingREAL]

that's a great idea. scars leave me very fascinated, i once remember i got my face scratched by one of my Grandparent's old dog when i was just a lil' todd, and the mark on my face has been there ever since teenhood.

🌹THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the Salvation of the last day that Christ brought in the second and last incarnation of His new and holy name" (In the kingdom, the myriad of created things begin to revive and regain their life force. Due to changes in the state of the world, the borders between one land of one land and another begin to also move. I have prophesied that when land is separated from land and land joins land, this is the time I will break the nations to pieces. All will be perfected by My words. The many nations within the universe will again be divided and replaced by My kingdom, so the nations on the face of the earth will disappear forever and all will become one kingdom that worships Me; all the nations of the earth will be destroyed and cease to exist. Among the people within the universe, all who belong to the devil will be destroyed, and all who worship Satan will be thrown into My blazing fire - that is, except for those who follow the current, all will be reduced to ashes. When I punish many people, those in the religious world, to varying degrees, will return to My kingdom, overcome by My works, because they have seen the coming of the Holy One riding on a white cloud. The time has come! The final phase of My plan is about to be fulfilled. Ah, dirty old world! You will surely obey My words! You will all gain a new life according to My words-your Lord almighty will be with you! Ah, pure and unblemished new world! You will surely live again within My glory! Ah, Mount Zion! Do not be silent-I have returned in triumph! Ah, My people! How can you not be resurrected within My light? Ah, resurrected Israel! How can you not be proud because of My appointed destiny?) Almighty God said In the KINGDOM, so many CREATED THINGS BEGIN to LIVE again and RECOVER their life force. Due to CHANGES in the CONDITION of the EARTH, the BOUNDARIES BETWEEN one LAND and another also STARTS to MOVE. ☀️ I have PROPHESIED that WHEN LAND is SEPARATED from LAND, and LAND JOINS LAND, this is the TIME I will CRUSH the NATIONS to PIECES. ☀️😪 At THIS TIME, I AM RENEWING ALL CREATION and will divide--redivide the ENTIRE UNIVERSE, thus the universe will be FIXED and the OLD will become NEW----this is My PLAN and these are My WORKS. When ALL the NATIONS and PEOPLE of the WORLD RETURN BEFORE MY THRONE, I WILL TAKE ALL the RICHNESS of HEAVEN and GIVE it to the human world, so that because of Me, that world will be filled with incomparable that abundance. But AS LONG AS THE OLD WORLD CONTINUES TO EXIST, I will pour out My WRATH upon its NATIONS, UNTIL MY administrative decrees are PRONOUNCED THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE, and I WILL PUNISH ANYONE WHO VIOLATES THEM. 🙏 When I turn My FACE to the UNIVERSE to SPEAK, ALL HUMANITY LISTENS to My VOICE and THEN ALL I HAVE DONE SEES the ENTIRE UNIVERSE. 🙏 Those who resist My will, that is, those who oppose Me in human works, will be subject to My chastisement. I will take the many stars of the sky and change them, and because of Me, the sun and the moon will be changed---the sky will not be the same and many things on earth will be changed. ALL will be PERFECT THROUGH My WORDS. The many NATIONS within the UNIVERSE will again be divided and REPLACED by My KINGDOM, so the NATIONS UNDER THE EARTH WILL DISAPPEAR FOREVER and ALL will be ONE KINGDOM WORSHIPING Me; ALL NATIONS ON EARTH WILL BE DESTROYED and CEASE TO EXIST. 🙏 Among the PEOPLE INSIDE THE UNIVERSE, ALL that belong to the DEVIL will be DESTROYED, and ALL SATAN WORSHIPERS will be thrown into My BURNING FIRE--that is, EXCEPT for those who FOLLOW the current, ALL will be reduced to ashes. ☀️😪 When I PUNISH many PEOPLE, those in the RELIGIOUS WORLD, in different DIMENSIONS, will RETURN to My KINGDOM, CONQUERED by My WORKS, because they have SEEN the COMING of the HOLY ONE RIDING on a WHITE CLOUD. 🙏💐 ALL PEOPLE WILL BE SEPARATED according to their OWN kind, and will RECEIVE PUNISHMENTS BELONGING to their actions. EVERYONE WHO RESISTS ME WILL BE SORRY; those who do not involve Me in their deeds on earth, they, because of the way they acquit themselves, will continue to exist on earth under the rule of My children and My people. I WILL REVEAL MYSELF to so many PEOPLE and to so many NATIONS, and with MY OWN VOICE, I WILL BE HEARD UNDER the EARTH, DECLARING the COMPLETION of My great WORK for ALL HUMANITY to SEE with their OWN EYES. As My VOICE GROWS, I also observe the state of the universe. THROUGH My WORDS, so many CREATED THINGS are CHANGING EVERYTHING. Humanity is EXPOSED in its ORIGINAL FORM and slowly, each person is SEPARATE according to their kind, and FINDS their way unconsciously back to the womb of their family. This is very pleasing to Me. I am free from distraction and, inconspicuously, accomplishing My great work, and renewing all the myriad creations. When I CREATED the WORLD, I MADE ALL THINGS according to their kind, INCLUDING ALL THINGS of the SAME FORM as their kind. As the END of My PLAN of REIGN APPROACHES, I WILL RESTORE the PREVIOUS STATE of CREATION; I RESTORE ALL THINGS to their ORIGINAL order, WHICH MAKES a great CHANGE in ALL THINGS, so that ALL THINGS RETURN to the ORIGIN of My PLAN. The TIME has COME! The LAST PHASE of My PLAN is NEARLY FULFILLED. ☀️🙏 Ah, DIRTY OLD WORLD! You will definitely come under My WORDS! You will definitely LOSE VALUE according to My PLAN! Ah, the myriad things of creation! YOU will ALL RECEIVE a NEW LIFE according to My WORDS---YOUR ALMIGHTY LORD will SIGN YOU! 💐🙏 Ah, PURE and unblemished NEW WORLD! You will surely live again within My glory! Ah, MOUNT ZION! Don't be silent----I'M BACK IN VICTORY! From the center of creation, I survey the entire world. On earth, a new life has begun and humanity has gained a new hope. Ah, My people! How can you not argue with joy under My guidance? The lands shout for joy, the waters roar with joyous laughter! Ah, the LIVING coal ISRAEL! How can you not be proud because of My DESTINED DESTINY? Who cried? Who cried? The former ISRAEL is GONE, and the ISRAEL of TODAY has RISE, STRAIGHT and STANDING in the WORLD, and STANDING in the HEARTS of ALL MANKIND. ISRAEL TODAY WILL SURELY OBTAIN the source of EXISTENCE THROUGH My people! 🙏 Ah, abominable Egypt! Maybe you are no longer against Me? How are you able to take advantage of My mercy and try to escape My chastisement? How can you not exist within My chastisement? EVERYONE I LOVE will surely LIVE FOREVER, and EVERYONE AGAINST Me I will surely PERSECUTE FOREVER. Because I am a jealous God and I will not just FORGIVE PEOPLE for EVERYTHING they have DONE. I will WATCH THE ENTIRE EARTH and, as I APPEAR in the EAST of the WORLD with righteousness, majesty, wrath, and chastisement, I will REVEAL MYSELF to the multitudes of mankind. From "The WORD Appears in the Flesh". holy book Fulfilled in (John 1:1). (Ezekiel 2:9-10). (Rev. 19:13). 📥Calling and leading everyone to His lowered Kingdom or Church because it is still standing on earth in the holy place in the air/ youtube "THE CHURCH OF ALMIGHTY GOD 💐 this is the fulfillment of what He said to Peter 2,000 years ago, recorded in (Mat. 16:18'19). This is the the only Church of each one of our spirit that we must listen to or eat and drink like how we eat, dress and sleep every day so that He can guide us and change us by rejecting the evil attached by satan so as to be perfect, having attained eternal life that will enter the coming replacement of the New Heaven and New Earth. 💌 👉 Note 📨 The coming of the Spirit of God incarnated in His second and last incarnation is the fulfillment of what was prophesied in the great BOOK of REVELATION so the last day or last age has come and His coming is to judge and punish unrighteousness of a person so that the pure or perfect person will be able to enter the approaching New Heaven and New Earth in the final judgment that all souls at that time will be reborn to receive the appropriate corresponding punishment (the one that will be destroyed and will no longer exist) or the reward of living forever in the New World. 💟

I would say apart from Informational clips, science (study of a Process), daily current affairs, entertainment, jokes, mainstream narratives, propaganda, lies, etcetera if you're interested in Theology, Purpose of Life, Reason for Creation/ Existence should have a look at this - First thing which should be considered is that THERE has to be one Absolute Truth/ Objective Reality (100%) [regardless of what different scientists, ph.ds, doctors, philosophers, societies, religions, cultures, individuals, etcetera believe]. The rest could be categorised as either - 1.) Some Truth with some Falsehood mixed in it (no matter in what ratio/ percentage it is in) or 2.) Complete Falsehood/ Delusion (100% Wrong). Its something like this - [If Analogy is to be used our Body is like a Hardware of the Computer and our Soul is like a Software. Just as Computer's Hardware is Useless without a Software, similarly, a Body is also Useless /Lifeless without a Soul.] We go through 5 Phases in our Life :- 1. The Realm (outside of this material Universe) where we took an oath & chose to be granted free will and want to be get Tested (The Testimony of believing in Only One God by our soul), 2. In our mother's womb (9 months) - The soul is breathed into the body, which gets created from a single molecule through a unique DNA🧬 (An Instruction Manual/ A Program/ Code) fashioned/ programmed by Creator. And, as the soul enters a body that's from where our consciousness and conscience comes (it happens with a lightning speed i.e. in a fraction of a second which Scientists/ Doctors couldn't able to capture it), 3. On Earth 🌎 (On an average of about 60-70 years) [Commencement of Test with the Development of Conscience], 4. In the Grave (The time frame from our death till the Day of Judgment/ Resurrection) & 5. In Paradise or Hell (Eternal Life). All are Temporary except after the Resurrection. So, the consciousness in brain 🧠 gets activated when soul enters the body & through soul the conscience (sense of right and wrong) of heart gets activated (including feelings like joy, peace, pain, anger, etc.).

Very good decision to NOT get tattoo! I applaud you! I'm so happy to NOT have tattoo and NEVER will get one. Tattoo is NOT cool and is NOT beautiful. It is disgusting and ugly.

[@JulesVante]

It’s a ver personal decision. I find the tattoo machine very traumatic for the skin (not in an emotional level, mind you), so that’s why my tattoos are made with the hand poked technic. It’s just one needle handled by the artist themselves, kinda like they’re drawing with dots. It’s doesn’t hurt at all, and they heal faster. But then again, you have to be sure about what you’re getting tattooed. If you’re not 100% sure, then leave it be!

Another reason to think twice about getting a tattoo is three letters M R I. I have a full sleeve and two smaller tattoos. The sleeve was done in 2004 and the other two smaller ones in the late 1980's. In 2017 I had my first MRI due to a life-threatening infection that was migrating to my brain. The MRI tech told me not to move so although all of my tattoos were getting hot, I didn't move or say anything. After my emergency surgery which I had a few days later, I notice my arm started killing me. I had gotten third degree burns on all of my tattoos, my sleeve being the most damage. That is how I found out that the tattoo inks that were used contained heavy metals and the MRI machine tried to remove those metals from my body. My arm was swollen, inflamed and small lumps appeared. It was agony. I was treated with antibiotics and steroids for a month. To this day you can see the burn scars on that arm and it is now larger and slightly deformed compared to my right arm. I had to go back to the emergency room twice because the pain, inflammation and small lumps came back and that was in 2019 and 2021. I was treated with antibiotics and steroids again. I can't imagine what would have happened to me if my tattoo was a chest one. Be warned and make sure you know what inks are being used. You never know if you will need an MRI in the future.

I'm sorry but saying "meaningful tattoo" is so stupid. There's no "meaningful" reason to mutilate yourself. No one needs to write things on their bodies. It's just stupid.

I had a skin cancer diagnosis about six months ago (I'm cured for now at least) but during the examination on my back, they said they could see blue amongst the colours in the melanoma. This surprised me as much as them. I did suspect my tattoo, which contains a lot of blue colouring might have appeared in the cells as they got replicated. I just wasn't sure how. Now I've seen this video, my question has been answered. My tattoo is in my body at a cellular level and not just my arm (unless the blue was from my eyes) Thanks Kurzgesagt 👍

I doubt that it's metal as metal works its way out of the body. But it's also a slow process so it may have just not worked its way out yet. It's crazy how it happens. As ex-military and metal workers will tell you that the metal can work its way out 1 of 2 ways. The first is you'll go to pop a pimple and notice metal coming out. The other is you'll wake up and just notice a piece or pieces of metal in the bed. Yet you won't see any exit wound or anything on the skin, that indicates where came out. It's pretty fascinating.

Due to changes in the state of the world, the borders between one land of one land and another begin to also move. I have prophesied that when land is separated from land and land joins land, this is the time I will break the nations to pieces. All will be perfected by My words. The many nations within the universe will again be divided and replaced by My kingdom, so the nations on the face of the earth will disappear forever and all will become one kingdom that worships Me; all the nations of the earth will be destroyed and cease to exist. Among the people within the universe, all who belong to the devil will be destroyed, and all who worship Satan will be thrown into My blazing fire - that is, except for those who follow the current, all will be reduced to ashes. When I punish many people, those in the religious world, to varying degrees, will return to My kingdom, overcome by My works, because they have seen the coming of the Holy One riding on a white cloud. The time has come! The final phase of My plan is about to be fulfilled. Ah, dirty old world! You will surely obey My words! You will all gain a new life according to My words-your Lord almighty will be with you! Ah, pure and unblemished new world! You will surely live again within My glory! Ah, Mount Zion! Do not be silent-I have returned in triumph! Ah, My people! How can you not be resurrected within My light? Ah, resurrected Israel! How can you not be proud because of My appointed destiny?) Almighty God said In the KINGDOM, so many CREATED THINGS BEGIN to LIVE again and RECOVER their life force. Due to CHANGES in the CONDITION of the EARTH, the BOUNDARIES BETWEEN one LAND and another also STARTS to MOVE. ☀️ I have PROPHESIED that WHEN LAND is SEPARATED from LAND, and LAND JOINS LAND, this is the TIME I will CRUSH the NATIONS to PIECES. ☀️😪 At THIS TIME, I AM RENEWING ALL CREATION and will divide--redivide the ENTIRE UNIVERSE, thus the universe will be FIXED and the OLD will become NEW----this is My PLAN and these are My WORKS. When ALL the NATIONS and PEOPLE of the WORLD RETURN BEFORE MY THRONE, I WILL TAKE ALL the RICHNESS of HEAVEN and GIVE it to the human world, so that because of Me, that world will be filled with incomparable that abundance. But AS LONG AS THE OLD WORLD CONTINUES TO EXIST, I will pour out My WRATH upon its NATIONS, UNTIL MY administrative decrees are PRONOUNCED THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE, and I WILL PUNISH ANYONE WHO VIOLATES THEM. 🙏 When I turn My FACE to the UNIVERSE to SPEAK, ALL HUMANITY LISTENS to My VOICE and THEN ALL I HAVE DONE SEES the ENTIRE UNIVERSE. 🙏 Those who resist My will, that is, those who oppose Me in human works, will be subject to My chastisement. I will take the many stars of the sky and change them, and because of Me, the sun and the moon will be changed---the sky will not be the same and many things on earth will be changed. ALL will be PERFECT THROUGH My WORDS. The many NATIONS within the UNIVERSE will again be divided and REPLACED by My KINGDOM, so the NATIONS UNDER THE EARTH WILL DISAPPEAR FOREVER and ALL will be ONE KINGDOM WORSHIPING Me; ALL NATIONS ON EARTH WILL BE DESTROYED and CEASE TO EXIST. 🙏 Among the PEOPLE INSIDE THE UNIVERSE, ALL that belong to the DEVIL will be DESTROYED, and ALL SATAN WORSHIPERS will be thrown into My BURNING FIRE--that is, EXCEPT for those who FOLLOW the current, ALL will be reduced to ashes. ☀️😪 When I PUNISH many PEOPLE, those in the RELIGIOUS WORLD, in different DIMENSIONS, will RETURN to My KINGDOM, CONQUERED by My WORKS, because they have SEEN the COMING of the HOLY ONE RIDING on a WHITE CLOUD. 🙏💐 ALL PEOPLE WILL BE SEPARATED according to their OWN kind, and will RECEIVE PUNISHMENTS BELONGING to their actions. EVERYONE WHO RESISTS ME WILL BE SORRY; those who do not involve Me in their deeds on earth, they, because of the way they acquit themselves, will continue to exist on earth under the rule of My children and My people. I WILL REVEAL MYSELF to so many PEOPLE and to so many NATIONS, and with MY OWN VOICE, I WILL BE HEARD UNDER the EARTH, DECLARING the COMPLETION of My great WORK for ALL HUMANITY to SEE with their OWN EYES. As My VOICE GROWS, I also observe the state of the universe. THROUGH My WORDS, so many CREATED THINGS are CHANGING EVERYTHING. Humanity is EXPOSED in its ORIGINAL FORM and slowly, each person is SEPARATE according to their kind, and FINDS their way unconsciously back to the womb of their family. This is very pleasing to Me. I am free from distraction and, inconspicuously, accomplishing My great work, and renewing all the myriad creations. When I CREATED the WORLD, I MADE ALL THINGS according to their kind, INCLUDING ALL THINGS of the SAME FORM as their kind. As the END of My PLAN of REIGN APPROACHES, I WILL RESTORE the PREVIOUS STATE of CREATION; I RESTORE ALL THINGS to their ORIGINAL order, WHICH MAKES a great CHANGE in ALL THINGS, so that ALL THINGS RETURN to the ORIGIN of My PLAN. The TIME has COME! The LAST PHASE of My PLAN is NEARLY FULFILLED. ☀️🙏 Ah, DIRTY OLD WORLD! You will definitely come under My WORDS! You will definitely LOSE VALUE according to My PLAN! Ah, the myriad things of creation! YOU will ALL RECEIVE a NEW LIFE according to My WORDS---YOUR ALMIGHTY LORD will SIGN YOU! 💐🙏 Ah, PURE and unblemished NEW WORLD! You will surely live again within My glory! Ah, MOUNT ZION! Don't be silent----I'M BACK IN VICTORY! From the center of creation, I survey the entire world. On earth, a new life has begun and humanity has gained a new hope. Ah, My people! How can you not argue with joy under My guidance? The lands shout for joy, the waters roar with joyous laughter! Ah, the LIVING coal ISRAEL! How can you not be proud because of My DESTINED DESTINY? Who cried? Who cried? The former ISRAEL is GONE, and the ISRAEL of TODAY has RISE, STRAIGHT and STANDING in the WORLD, and STANDING in the HEARTS of ALL MANKIND. ISRAEL TODAY WILL SURELY OBTAIN the source of EXISTENCE THROUGH My people! 🙏 Ah, abominable Egypt! Maybe you are no longer against Me? How are you able to take advantage of My mercy and try to escape My chastisement? How can you not exist within My chastisement? EVERYONE I LOVE will surely LIVE FOREVER, and EVERYONE AGAINST Me I will surely PERSECUTE FOREVER. Because I am a jealous God and I will not just FORGIVE PEOPLE for EVERYTHING they have DONE. I will WATCH THE ENTIRE EARTH and, as I APPEAR in the EAST of the WORLD with righteousness, majesty, wrath, and chastisement, I will REVEAL MYSELF to the multitudes of mankind. From "The WORD Appears in the Flesh". holy book Fulfilled in (John 1:1). (Ezekiel 2:9-10).

Are you never going to walk again, because you might skin your knee when you trip and fall one day? That would be the exact same bodily response to a little needle jabbing you. Except you get MORE germs in a larger wound. Cut yourself while cooking, or sewing, or anything else normal? Far worse things happen in your body, then a few cells just holding ink in place. People must have been deaf and blind for the first half of the video where this is explained that what tattoos cause in us is something we deal with on a daily basis anyways - foreign bodies being fought off inside of us.

It's also a reason why a tattoo can give health problems over time too, as the metals can slowly be released into your body, and depending on what it's made up of it can be deadly. As there has been cases of cheap ink using all sorts of things to give it color. If you want one and be relative safe then there should be black colors that doesn't need any metal to give it color, though start with a tiny one, and never get it done on a trip or vacation as you have no idea what is in the ink.

Ah now i get why my husbands tattoo artist (who is known in the area for being extremely cautios about sanitary and health safety) refused to tattoo me and recommended not doing it at all. The fact aside that i'm allergic to PPD, which is not in the tattoo paint he uses, after seeing my other allergies (turpentine aka fragrances, metals, benzocaine, etc, all being contact allergies) he told me that i must be sick rarely, but when i am, i'm over the top out of it. And yeah that's true - plus my body temperature is naturally nearly 1 C° below average, so what other consider a slight fever makes me feel like i'm cooking inside. Well, he told me that my immune system is overdoing it, literally taking out machine guns to fight off flies. So giving me a tatoo, even avoiding my allergy triggers, would throw my immune system into world war mode and could cause serious - if not permanent - damage. I didn't really get how a tattoo could do that, i guess now i do. Dang, and i really wanted a full back tattoo all my life.

OMG not a full back tattoo! That would probably be horrible for you.
