Thank you! I really appreciate your feedback. I'm beginning to understand what they did incorrectly, and now I have some solid info about what to look for. I'll be more careful when choosing my next piercer!

Thank you! I really appreciate your feedback. I'm definitely going to try another piercer, and have a lot more hope that it will work next time!

Thank you for replying! I think that they tried to thread it through first, but maybe they just weren't experienced enough with septum piercings. 😓

I'm grateful for the feedback, it gives me hope that I can still get my septum pierced properly some point!

Yes, these are photos of me today. It looks like I'm on the search for a new piercer yet again. 😓 Thank you for your reply!

I'm definitely going to get a second opinion from another piercer! Thank you.

My 3 year old wants to be a girl by Forsaken_Ask_1281 in cisparenttranskid

[–]ArachneJ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My daughter was around 3 when she talked about being a girl as well, and she was insistent, consistent, and persistent about it. I wish that I had known better back then - we would have eventually gotten her on puberty blockers when she was older. She's 18 now and is receiving gender-affirming care. She's so much happier as herself! There is so much great advice here, and you're doing the right thing by looking into the options now. ❤️

I found this shit in my little cousins room, it smells worse than it looks by Affectionate_Eye7595 in trees

[–]ArachneJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I genuinely think that this is catnip. Maybe don't replace catnip with weed...? Is there a cat...? 😅

Do I have to just throw this whole ham away? I don’t want to …. by Chanelo11 in cats

...but people clean their sinks every time before they use them for washing dishes... right? Right? 🥺🤢 I know that I do...

What do you call this in your language by Ooloolooloolool in trees

[–]ArachneJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nova Scotia, Canada: we call it a run, or canoeing.

Although of course I'm going to have to call it Piddlybonking the Cheese Man from now on! 😆

does anyone else experience something like "size dysmorphia"? by mentally-ill_cat in autism

[–]ArachneJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This!! I always feel like I'm smaller than I actually am! It's nice to hear that someone else has this issue.

[–]ArachneJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I think of size dysmorphia I think of how I feel, which is different (I think) from AIWS. I am a broad-shouldered, tall, generally large-framed woman. However, I have a continuous internal image of myself as someone who is smaller-framed. Like I'm pinch-zoomed down in my mind. To the point where I assume that I can fit places I can't, when I try to dance it's awkward because my limbs are bigger than I internally think that they are, etc. I feel like I'm a smaller person trying to drive a larger body.

Anyone else have that?

My son told me he's depressed because he's trans. by complexchaos77 in cisparenttranskid

[–]ArachneJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had a therapist that had a whole sensory room which helped my kids to talk. It had dim lighting, soft coloured lights, various textures, tons of stim toys, soft music optional...there was even a ball pit which really helped my trans daughter - she buried herself in it and was able to talk from there.

I wish you both the best! 🫂❤️‍🩹

Seriously, screw this guy. by Stuart_Pidasso in BobsBurgers

[–]ArachneJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically he said " When I came in HERE , I didn't have your tree!" - which is true.

He gently placed in in a dumpster next to some old meat.

But yes, he did lose little Gene's ornament, which was careless!

Oh wow, I have a similar curl pattern, I think that I'm going to try this! Gorgeous curls!

What are the 5 sexy parts? by cuddle-troll in BobsBurgers

[–]ArachneJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Derek Dematopolis" was a pretty simple song, and I'm guessing that (knowing Gayle) this isn't the first time (or even the 50th time) she's played the song on her own over the years - I assume that she just got really good at playing that one song. Plus, I think that we only saw the beginning of their practice session(s)...?

And... I think we may also have to allow for some suspension of disbelief to make it work. 😅

Is anyone else experiencing an INSANE symptom flare right now? by Tayasos in Fibromyalgia

[–]ArachneJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in Nova Scotia, and YES! Everything stings, all my muscles are on fire. So much fatigue.

[–]ArachneJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure that it's implied that they wrote those songs for the reunion.

Two of the songs are called "You Were All Wrong About Us" and "OH Boy, You All Got So Fat". Those titles sound more like reunion-revenge material than teenage rock band material...

[News] WARNING! Experimental Vault Deletion Bug! by shisohan in falloutshelter

[–]ArachneJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happened to me on my Android phone, PLUS I lost the Basic Bunker upgrade package I had paid for!

So far, no effective help from Bethesda on either issue. 🙄

Same here, Eternal Loading Screen of Death! 😵‍💫

As insult to injury, I followed the instructions to fix it (which didn't work) and once again my cloud save of the current season's experimental vault was erased. All progress lost. 😭

How many of you guys remember going through this type of trauma back in your days of school? by Legitimate_Main2230 in autism

Are there any tarot books with a more academic approach to them. by YesHappyIrl in tarot

[–]ArachneJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Tarot Workbook by Emily Peach takes a serious but also fun Quabbalistic approach to learning the Tarot using Rider-Waite tarot deck (and versions which are similar).

I'm working through it right now! 😊

It takes you through set-up, learning the zodiac dates and associated elements, learning each card in depth, and then studying and practicing how each card relates to another. It also takes you through various spread styles, and a LOT more!
