    While I’d never do something like that, I can see his point. Sometimes the only way forward is to burn your bridges.

    Also, all this talk about face tattoos reminds me of one of the all time great science fiction novels, “The Stars My Destination,” by Alfred Bester. One of the subplots is that the hero gets tattoos that make it easy for his enemies to find him.

    Fun read. https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-stars-my-destination-alfred-bester/11574652?ean=9781876963460&next=t

      That was my favorite book when I was a kid. I only learned that it’s the Sci-fi version of the classic book “Count of Monte Cristo” as an adult.
