Maggie Lindemann got a tattoo of a bat on the inside of her left ankle in May 2017. The silhouette design looks a lot like the Batman logo, but it’s not an exact match. The tattoo represents her superstitious belief that bats are a positive omen for her. She told Pop Flash:
Every time something really cool happens there’s like a bat, which is really weird.
Maggie Lindemann got this vampire-inspired “BITE ME” tattoo on the side of her middle finger in March 2017. She told Coveteur:
My hand tattoos, like my ‘bite me’ one, are just because I love vampires. I want to get a fang tattoo, but I am just too scared to get a big artwork piece on me because I am so young still.
Maggie Lindemann and her best friend Ellise got matching X X tattoos on their knuckles in January 2017. Both girls share a love of tiny hand tattoos and have other similar designs as well, such as dots and crosses.
Maggie Lindemann has a quote in a script font on her upper back from the poem “Troll” by author Shane Koyczan. It says “turning freedom of speech into freedom of cruelty.” The poem is about how internet trolls are extremely harmful to their victims and trolling is not a game.
On her twitter, Maggie explained that the tattoo is an anti-bullying message, writing: “freedom of cruelty meaning bullying.” She has spoken out about the seriousness of bullying as well as her own experiences:
Sorry for getting in my feelings but when it comes to bullying it really gets to me. Bullying forever affects you. Those words never leave your head. People were so mean to me starting 5th grade. I was so desperate to be loved, people made a joke out of me. I just wanted to be loved. Someone almost burnt my house down and put plastic forks under my window and pads everywhere right after I had gotten out of treatment. I am strong now. I know my worth and I know I’m not that fragile little girl anymore. But some words really hit home. You just never know what someone has gone through. Always be kind. For anyone that has gone through bullying. I’m always here for you, it’s a real thing. It’s a scary thing
When Maggie was going through dark times, Shane Koyczan’s poems hit home. They resonated with her so much that she’s had two of them tattooed — the first is on her arm. She got this tattoo in December 2016 from her favorite artist Romeo Lacoste, who does all of his cursive tattoos in his own handwriting. “Thank you @romeolacoste for always being the best at what you do,” Maggie wrote on her Instagram.
Four of Maggie Lindemann’s five knuckle tattoos are astronomy-related, so this dagger on her thumb seems out of place. Maggie explained in a tweet that this tattoo isn’t connected to the others: “I’ve wanted a knife for a while but didn’t know where to put it, so I saw someone with one on their thumb and fell in love.” She did however put dots below her nail like the tattoos on all of her other fingers. She got this tattoo from artist Romeo Lacoste on October 16, 2016 at the same time as the star on her pinkie. With all five fingers covered, she announced that her hand is now complete — but she’s still got room on her lower knuckles if she changes her mind!
The knife represents Maggie’s interest in blood and gore. “I’ve always been so fascinated with horror, murders, etc. so I felt it was appropriate,” she tweeted.
On October 16, 2016 Maggie Lindemann got this star tattoo on her right pinkie finger to complete her set of outer-space knuckle tattoos. She also added one tiny little dot below her fingernail.
Although this tattoo fits in with her celestial theme, it has a unique meaning of its own, representing the stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. “The star is because when I was younger I always wanted to sing, and I wanted to go to Hollywood,” she told Pop Flash. “And then it just happened to go with this system that I have.”
Maggie Lindemann added to her collection of celestial-themed right hand tattoos with this planet Saturn and three dots on September 25, 2016. She told Sidewalk Talk:
I don’t even know the meanings behind my hand tattoos. They don’t all have meanings….The planets I just thought were cool. I do like the planets, I do like outer space and all that. I’m really into the moon. So I guess that’s why.
Maggie Lindemann added this tattoo of a sun and two dots on her middle finger on September 5, 2016 as a companion to the moon and dots on her ring finger. Artist Romeo Lacoste shared a photo of the fresh ink with the caption “They don’t call me the Line God for nothing. Clean and crisp lines that heal perfect every time. Don’t be fooled by artist who can’t do straight lines, perfect circles or tattoos that heal properly. To get tattooed by me book on RomeoLacoste.com“
In August 2016 Maggie Lindemann got this moon on her ring finger, just below the existing dots tattoos. It is a crescent inside of a circle so that it shows multiple phases of the moon at once. This was her eighth tattoo overall and her first since turning 18 — the legal minimum for tattoos in most states.
On August 8, 2016, Maggie Lindemann showed of a new tattoo on the inside of her left elbow which says “not afraid” in red ink. She appears to have scars from self-harming on this arm just below the tattoo. She has opened up in the past about her struggles with depression and suicidal thoughts. “Suicide isn’t a fucking joke,” she wrote in a tweet back in July 2015. In another tweet, which has since been deleted but is archived in this article, she wrote “suicide is something I’ve struggled with since I was little. It’s been a thought all my life. [People] don’t understand how big of a deal it is.”
In separate set of tweets from March 2016, she wrote “depression is a very real thing. it’s not just being “sad” it’s way deeper than that. it’s a crunching, suffocating disease and it’s not something that shouldn’t be taken lightly. suicidal thoughts aren’t ok, if you have thoughts of killing yourself PLEASE tell someone you trust and if you don’t think you can, tell me and I’ll do everything I can to be there for you and get you help. I hate seeing so many people hurting so bad. I have been there before and I can tell you it gets better. It may take awhile but I promise you it does.”
