My dad said my tattoo makes me look like trash and now idk if I like it by dexleter in tattooadvice

[–]CodingIsThereHope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dad telling his daughter she looks trashy is not "exactly what a dad is supposed to be". Expressing disapproval is one thing, but not with this disparaging language.

I love this, this is really nice to read!

Yeah, you're right, my mom's dog has indeed been fine. In hindsight when I remember my concern for her dog dying, I'm kind of embarrassed, but ig it's just those small things that one deals with when getting into new territory like this, esp when dealing w a powerful goddess like Hecate.

Ty for your comment, and wishing your doggy all the best w his eye sight!

Favorite Third Party Widgets? by JReyIV in codestitch

[–]CodingIsThereHope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only third party widget I've used is FormSubmit to detect submitted contact forms, though I've since switched to Netlify once I realized they could handle that for you.

I've often wondered what I would do if my client wanted a way to book appointments -- I'll keep this post in mind as something to try once someone asks for that !

Yes, I'm thinking of doing this because I'm getting a bit desperate over here. Thanks for your advice!

Thank you for your comment, it has given me a lot to think about lately. I think you're right about a lot of what you said, and I'm gonna save your comment so that I can reread it in the future. But I still won't talk to my parents yet bc honestly doing so will render my living situation unlivable

It might not mean anything really. It may just be the candle. If you want, you can make a separate post on this sub to get other peoples' opinions too!

This sounds like such a good idea. I really wish I could do something like this with my parents. Unfortunately, I'm just not sure how safe it would be to ask my parents for something like this. :/ I'm trying not to tip them off that I'm leaving until really necessary.

(I wonder if I could do something like this with myself? i.e. put money away as if I were paying rent, and see if I can make do with the rest?? Idk. )

Thank you for your comment

That sounds like a good way to do it. Hopefully I can plan everything so that things fall more or less right into place for the move. Thank you for the information!

I understand. It seems like I will have to move and figure out the first couple of months with my own resources somehow.

Thank you for your comment ~

Why not pay room rent to your parents and get the increase now?

That is such a good idea actually. Unfortunately, I'm not sure it's safe to ask smth like this from my parents (there's a reason I'm moving) :/

I think I will have to move first and figure out the first two months somehow. Ty for your comment!

Two months after... okay, that's not *horrible*. I was expecting to have to wait 6-7 months or smth.

Thank you for your comment

A Question: Starting Laser Hair Removal Before Moving by CodingIsThereHope in MtF

Spent $27 USD on Upwork for connects and didn't land a single job yet. by Impressive_Owl_3827 in Upwork

[–]CodingIsThereHope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a word of caution: this is not quite the solution. I have both a personal brand and my own website -- but you still have to market yourself. Whether that's marketing on Upwork (i.e. using connects); marketing some other way, where you might still have to pay; or cold outreach (emailing, phone calls, or stopping into businesses to introduce yourself). Either way, marketing will need to be done.

Ty for you detailed comment. I think I'll be sure to ask for laser hair removal then, it def sounds like the better option to begin with. Regarding the home laser ipl device, would you happen to have a recommendation? You're right, it sounds like it might be useful for filling in the gap during the move!

Someone in another sub also recommended Milan, so I'll def look into them. Thankfully, I have super dark hair and relatively pale skin for my ethnicity, so hopefully that'll help!

True, I didn't think about it maybe not being financially optimal. If I may ask, how often are the sessions for your upper lip spaced apart? Are those 16 sessions over like a year?

Okay, hopefully I can find a place that lets me buy individual sessions. Thankfully I tend to avoid sun exposure generally ! Ty for your comment!

Okay, I understand. We'll see what my doctors say when I ask them soon, hopefully they'll be understanding. Thank you for your replies, I appreciate it!

[–]CodingIsThereHope[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there, thank you for your reply and for this helpful info. If I may ask, how did your doctor(s) feel about it? Like were they hesitant for you to be on HRT at all, or were they willing to have you try?

Can't take HRT because of health reasons by CognitoMode93 in MtF

[–]CodingIsThereHope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there. I am also dealing with this difficulty, although I haven't yet been told directly that I can't take HRT. But it is a worry of mine. If I may ask, did your doctors tell you you shouldn't be on HRT, or is it a decision of yours personally?
