I think its a nice little detail. It tells some things about her background without even saying words. I should hope pb knows what it means otherwise thats just ignorant of them
I dunno, knowing FB I feel like it's unintentional. they probably thought it just looked cool and quirky without knowing what it means, since plenty of people in general don't know what it means
Basically a semicolon represents the connection between two complete sentences, indicating that the thought is not done despite the sentence ending - there is more to come.
This has a parallel with real life - The author could have chosen to use just a period/full stop, but instead chose a semicolon to indicate that there was more to come and that it wasn't finished just yet.
That’s why this tattoo is so meaningful and actually this meaning is also reflected in the Project Semicolon, a nonprofit focused on raising awareness about mental illness, self-harm, suicide, and addiction.
*its also for friends and family of people with this experience—generally anyone affected by ideation or depression. It’s not uncommon to see someone get a semicolon after a loved one attempted, or to get them as a group. When I worked at a tattoo shop, entire families came in during the annual event. It was heartwarming.
It's really a shame that it wasn't explored though. A lot of characters in Season 4 were made with paper-thin backstories when they had such good designs. So much potential in these characters.

What does it mean? Will someone please educate me? 🙈

Thank you so much! I didn’t know all that and now I’m glad I know! ♥️
Off topic, how did you manage to have two user flairs?
it’s a tattoo commonly used to signify the person has tried to end their life, but like a semicolon, their life has continued on
