. . . . Another factor to consider is the color of the tattoo. In a matched analysis comparing individuals with similar characteristics, those with black or grey tattoos had a 23 percent higher risk of lymphoma. Those with both black and colored tattoos had a 21 percent higher risk compared to people without tattoos.

In a broader, less-controlled analysis, the risk was even higher for black and grey tattoos, showing a 32 percent increase, and lower for tattoos with both black and colored ink, with an 11 percent increase. Of note, this broader analysis may have been influenced by other factors, such as lifestyle or health differences between groups.

Black ink often contains polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which are known to be carcinogenic and can increase the risk of cancer. Colored inks, on the other hand, may contain primary aromatic amines. Both may contain metals like arsenic, lead, and chromium. . . .

Jesus H. Christ on a cross! More fear porn bullshit. If you ever ate carrots and get cancer it was from the carrots! Chicken Littles jump on the bandwagon! Oy vey! We always knew tattoos were bad but nobody listened! This is NOT what we need to care about. The fucking world is collapsing and this is the latest distraction. Fuck it! It don’t mean nothing!

At this point they might as well start telling us that staying under rain for too long will give us cold, so we should go and, uh... ban weather next? Those satanic fuckheads think they're funny and they're laughing.
