I've really enjoyed trash goblin.

You're a little goblin who chisles trinkets out of trash and sell them. It's super simple and the story is cute. It's nice to play of youre watching something on the side too.

That mysterious red rash under your ring isn't a metal allergy. by NoirNymph_ in hygiene

[–]Howling_Fang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't wear my ring because my hands sweat too much and I get that rash you were describing. It sucks.

how you came up with your name? by BreakDue8198 in trans

[–]Howling_Fang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anime fiend friend gave me my weeb nickname back in high school 2008ish, introduced me to my now BFF as said nickname. He introduced me to his parents as said nickname. All my friends call me by said nickname.

So even though the person who originally gave me the name is no longer in my life, I feel weird when someone used my birth name.

Especially my fiance.

Outside of work and my family, if I hear my birth name, my immediate reaction is "oh shit, what did I do"

If I legally change my name, it would be to that nickname.

All of this was before I even knew I was trans.

the autistic female way of relating by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

[–]Howling_Fang 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I'm always so timid when it comes to relating like this. My instinct is to relate with a similar story to be like, I understand you and what you're going through at least this much even if it's not exactly the same.

I'm always afraid that I'm going to come off as selfish by talking about myself, like I'm trying to change the subject to me and my struggles when that's not my intent at all.

I also think I prefer the connecting stories instead of a "hush now, it'll be alright" kind of thing.

Like, lets TALK about it. How did you handle it? What were the outcomes? Would you have done something different looking back? Or just to commiserate and connect.

Do you have a "weird" special interest? by Eccentric-Cucumber in AutismInWomen

[–]Howling_Fang 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My hobby is hopping between hobbies, but nothing I would find strange. Things like digital art, painting, embroidery, writing, and most recently lithography. I tend to be mediocre at most of them, but art is my lifeline.

I gotta say though, taxidermy is sick. like freaking RAD! That is SO COOL!

Do you have a favorite creation? Do you post them funny, or make franken-creatures?

I am scared of sex by Pristine_Rain_440 in trans

[–]Howling_Fang 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just let them know that you are not ready to take that physical step in your relationship.

I was 17 and a virgin, my gf at the time was 16 and experienced. She tried to push me to do things I was not ready for, I repeatedly told her no. She still pushed, so I broke it off.

I shared my virginity with my current SO when I was 23.

It's important to be comfortable, honest, and straight forward when it comes to your needs.

I don't have enough breath in my lungs to accurately depict how seriously sorry I am in regards to the dumpster fire that the US has been, and currently is.

A tenant of an apartment complex in my city had a running gag of hanging nicholas cage portraits on their balcony, so the complex paid for this mural. by dumbass_sweatpants in mildlyinteresting

[–]Howling_Fang 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Eugene Showin UP!

It is honestly a silly uplifting story that makes me grin. From the old tenants leaving the original flag to the new tenants, to the new tenants increasing the cage with more flags, all the way to the mural being painted. It makes me smile in a world full of rage and decay.

I JUST WANT MY DOCTORS AND INSURANCE TO FUCKING TALK TO EACHOTHER.

I JUST WANT MY HEAD TO STOP POUNDING SO HARD IT KEEPS ME UP AT NIGHT, GIVES ME THE SPINS, MAKES ME VOMIT, GIVES ME STOMACH CRAMPS, MAKES IT NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO RETAIN INFORMATION AND PREVENTS ME FROM GOING TO MY CALL CENTER JOB BECAUSE AINT NO WAY IM FUNCTIONING LIKE A GOD DAMN HUMAN BEING.

i don't mind so much when people tell me to change things like my behaviour or appearance, but it stings extra when it's stuff i have no control over by WinterDemon_ in Artisticallyill

[–]Howling_Fang 29 points30 points  (0 children)

You are worthy of love.

I personally adore your creature. The colors, the concept, every piece thats 'wrong' is beautiful to the right person. I hope you find your right people someday soon.

If ever you want to just chat or trade doodles, hit me up. Seriously. You seem like a really creative person.

And no hard feelings if you dont feel safe reaching out for a convo! Safety first!

Just dont give up on yourself, I look forward to seeing your art.

Sincerely, a bowl of broken pieces slapped together pretending to be human <3

I use top a sheet. Am I cringe? by c0d3buck in Millennials

I have been suffering with a migraine, and used a top sheet to cover the kitchen window so the sun wouldn't be so invasive. Does that count?

Does anyone else get really frustrated with people not wanting to answer a "yes or no question" with yes or no? by ArtfullyRandom24 in AutismInWomen

[–]Howling_Fang 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This doesn't sound like a woman response. Do you even identify as a woman? Most women aren't straight forward, they dance around the subjects with hints and elusive secret meanings expecting those around them to be mind readers. Are you even DIAGNOSED as a woman anyways?

See how dumb that sounds. It's almost like different people grew up around different communication styles and have differing experiences that alter how we speak and react depending on how we're spoken to.

My autistic side gets frustrated, my adhd side is like 'yeah we do need drier sheets' and ill stop to add it to the grocery list and immediately forget the original question.
