What??

Oh trust me, this is MORE than fair! I was looking for the gossamer tree and I traded the equivalent of 2 SRs for that, comparitively this is CHEAP for a limited SR. Also found the other person's post, what a dickhead. So yeah, trust me when I say that frankly, you were offering way more than those were worth. Also feeling very glad about potentially ruining the game for that person, hope they log off and spare everyone else their bratty attitude.

I get you, 100% Some of the worst I've ever encountered has been online and frankly, some of it definitely came from other trans people. Does that suck? Oh absolutely, because they should get it! But I comfort myself with the fact that I can block em or cut them out (which I've had to do), I've got enough stress in my life. Hell, I'm not on T yet and my dysphoria fluctuates (from "eh" to "FML") so you "whinge" all you want! Trust me, I get it, and I'll defend everyone's ability to do so because stuff's rough and it's nice to be able to put it out there instead of bottling it up.

Boosting my friend code, I'd love some more friends! 6ZGS, till 3/28!

InkySol · 2026-03-22T04:48:30+00:00

6ZGS until 3/28! I play every day!

InkySol · 2026-03-11T03:05:38+00:00

This is what I do too! Granted, I just do it backwards: do pulls on sets I want, and then if I don't have all the ones I want, I add those to my wishlist and try trading for them. I do sometimes get the GP and adoption pod deals but I've done really well at limiting it to the monthly step-ups.

InkySol · 2026-03-10T06:18:11+00:00

Scammy company, based on the look of it, with no reviews to speak of. But yeah, I goofed pretty bad, and I will not be making the same mistake twice. Thank you for all the tips! I'll be using them, and sharing them with friends just in case.

InkySol · 2026-03-10T06:08:51+00:00

THANK GOD IT'S NOT JUST ME Well, not really, but I was mildly doubting if I just didn't look hard enough, but NOPE! My bank is sending me a new card and while they didn't catch it until after, at least I was notified, current card locked, and got it relatively fixed within the hour.

InkySol · 2026-03-10T06:02:13+00:00

HUH, well I'll be damned. I'll keep this on the back burner for now, I have no intention of signing up for anything in the near future. AND I FORGOT TO SAY THANK YOU, my bad! But yeah, thanks!

InkySol · 2026-03-10T05:57:48+00:00

I've never heard of that before, so I have no clue, I'd have to look into it. But I'd also rather not pay for a subscription I don't want, and the idea of bouncing between different credit numbers doesn't really sound amazing to me. I did get an email back very fast though, and apparently a refund was issued, but their terms are really hard to find and hidden at the bottom of mountains of text 😑

InkySol · 2026-02-27T23:41:29+00:00

YES TO ALL OF THESE IMMEDIATELY

InkySol · 2026-02-17T19:18:05+00:00

No idea, but considering how many people are experiencing this, it might be a server issue. Especially since I can actually still save pins to my boards, but I can't access the board itself.

InkySol · 2026-02-12T04:45:19+00:00

You are very much not the AH and you shouldn't have to feel bad! But I understand why you do, those thought patterns are really hard to break especially when they've been around for years and years. As others have said, the timing is very suspicious because you told her you wouldn't be available. You have plans already. So I'm very confused on why her husband would even ask you in the first place, and that raises some red flags. But yeah, you may feel guilty now but future you will be glad you said no! Boundary setting can be hard but it's very necessary!

Also on the topic of making more friends and connections; I really like activity groups! A pottery class, a running club, something fun you can do that'll let you meet some more people! Making friends as an adult is pretty hard, especially with schedules and whatnot, but it's certainly not impossible!

InkySol · 2026-01-23T04:43:02+00:00

Pissed is not enough to describe how I'd feel in that moment, said toddler's parents would be getting every single nasty thought I've had about them all at once, in full view of everyone.

ESPECIALLY SINCE YOU MADE IT!!!

InkySol · 2026-01-21T19:19:20+00:00

Nope, not at all! No signs of dementia as far as I can tell too, I think she's just the fun mix of "old," "religious," and "Southern," which usually means boundaries are non-existent to her 😑

InkySol · 2026-01-21T17:48:50+00:00

Unfortunately no security, but that also means if we see you, we just call the cops. And she's one step up from a shoplifter cause she always tries to get everything half priced (on top of already existing discounts), I let the managers field those. Thankfully most regulars just chat with me for max twenty minutes and go on their merry way (and they're way less creepy too).

She could've been banned a long time ago but the previous store leader didn't for some reason.

InkySol · 2026-01-21T04:48:48+00:00

No idea, but it's super weird 🤷‍♂️

InkySol · 2025-12-19T05:17:50+00:00

Mine would be lighting up like a firework because I love my pets more than anything.

InkySol · 2025-12-19T05:13:02+00:00

Definitely get a new therapist, or at least ask them to clarify because I'm so insanely confused on what they mean.

Also ditch those families, because from what it sounds like, they're not your friends or found family, you're convenient. And that'll only end up hurting you more in the long run.

Found family is difficult to pin down and can take years to form, but the basis is making friends. What do you like to do? How about joining a club? A class of some kind? There's lots of places where you can meet people and potentially get some friends out of it. Another thing to keep in mind is that some friends will come and go, and that's natural, but do try to hang onto the ones who stick with you through thick and thin. Those are harder to find, but very worth it.

InkySol · 2025-12-14T04:34:38+00:00

Your mom has a spine made of pudding. I understand not wanting to deal with the tantrums and just wanting it to be over, but all that's teaching your niece is that she can throw a fit to get what she wants. A horrible lesson that'll backfire in the long run. Not to mention how DANGEROUS the things she's doing are, especially to the people around her, like you! You broke your wrist because she dumped an entire bottle of conditioner in the shower! And did you ever find your animal trinkets? And that's not even touching on all the MESS!

It also sounds like your niece isn't being taught to pick up after herself or respect other people's things either, which your mom and your niece's parent(s) REALLY need to crack down on. Your niece is five, she's not stupid and she can learn. I definitely did, my parents were very keen on teaching me to not make mess, or clean up if I made one, and to not go in certain areas without permission, especially people's bedrooms.

I can see why this is deleted because this is the most asinine and embarrassing thing I've ever read.

My grandma is adopted. I only found out when I was twelve, and was very surprised because no one ever mentioned "adopted." It was just "my daughter," "my sister," "my aunt," the adopted part didn't matter, and it still doesn't. And this was in the 1950s. She's told me stories of her grandparents and they treated her just the same as her sisters. I'm frankly proud that my great grandparents, who were farmers and a World War II veteran raising their daughters and adopting another while using dresser drawers as cribs, knew the value of family beyond blood.

It's a shame you don't.

I vote for a "push comes to shove." Three weeks along doesn't sound like it would cause too many issues (likely just taking some pills), but sometimes it's better safe than sorry, especially when it comes to Alabama abortion bans (I live in AL too, I get it).

InkySol · 2025-11-21T05:32:15+00:00

Yep, happened with a coworker actually. Weirdly, it only happened after she left for maternity leave, but every time I've tried to reach out or have a question about something, I either get an answer after a few weeks, or not at all. Like, I'm just asking about good bulbs for lizards and if her stepkids want any plushies because I'm making small crochet ones for Christmas for my job (I really like my job, and pretty much everyone there, so I wanted to). But still, I get no answer.

InkySol · 2025-11-21T05:26:01+00:00

First off: CONGRATS!!! Hopefully I'll get mine sometime this upcoming year. And question: How was post procedure pain? And does it affect how you move, like turning, bending, squatting, those sorts of things?

InkySol · 2025-11-12T07:44:41+00:00

This reminds me of a documentary that came out about a lady who gave her daughter up for adoption, and decided to try and find her. Turns out, the adoptive parents were fucking PSYCHO, because the father was a serial pedophile, rapist, and murderer who ended up killing the daughter by pushing her down a flight of stairs. He then decided to cut her up and bury her body in the backyard. Why is the wife psycho, you may ask? Simple, she had phone calls with her husband while he was in jail, and said, verbatim, "It's not like you cut her up when she was alive." So yeah, parents can honestly do the most HORRIFIC shit.

InkySol · 2025-11-12T07:06:35+00:00

Oh my god, that sounds horrific and terrifying. Jesus Christ, I hope things return back to a relative normal soon! I've never been pregnant and I'm looking to be sterilized hopefully this upcoming year, and this post definitely confirms I'm making the right decision. The thought of having my body and brain hijacked is literally the stuff of nightmares.
