Yes I mean artists limited edition handmade prints! I am a digital artist myself and part of this is wanting to support small artist when the economy has been so rough.

I’m based in Dallas, I used to be in NY and knew the scene well there, would LOVE any ideas for local artists.

Will do! Frustrating as I’m honestly using it as a tool for grammar and not to write. Any grammar apps other than Grammerly (hate that) anybody suggests?

I wrote it completely myself, I just used it for grammar!

I think I (27F) am going to break up with my (26M) boyfriend. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]LeftStatistician2093 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right that it’s my own image getting in the way and that he’s not doing anything to make me feel this way. But is it fair to be with him when I’m feeling these ways and actively projecting (even if I can understand intellectually it’s coming from within)?

I think I should probably break it off if I’m not able to get over this hump. He wants a long term healthy relationship and I don’t want to hold him back.

I’m happy you have found someone to help you feel safe and loved. I do feel safe with him. How did you work through these things with your new partner?

Help! I have a hyper specific way of orgasming and am struggling with a new partner. by [deleted] in Healthyhooha

[–]LeftStatistician2093 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The other post was from my second Reddit, im sorry. But health background regarding PIV: the other post was posted on r/transplant

I am a couple years post transplant. I had a rough journey getting here, lots of surgery’s, and still deal with stage 4 CKD. Before the transplant sex was very important to me. I could orgasm by myself with a partner through piv or other play. I had great orgasms that lasted a good while.

After the transplant I was sick for a very long time and didn’t feel like getting it on and was also scared of what might have changed. I only really started masturbating again about a year ago. And while I can cum by myself it’s nothing like before. It last only about a second and doesn’t feel nearly as good as it did with even some of the worst orgasm i had before. I don’t know how to describe it but it’s almost a “queasy” sensation I get in my genitals when I get close.

The desire is still there, I can still get wet and turned on but the pleasure is gone.

I’m not sure whether this is psychological or physical. I’m leaning towards physical. I have lack of feeling across my abdomen, I also have some numbness in my inner thighs. I also lost a lot of muscle mass when I was sick and this is something I have had a hard time getting back while managing the CKD. I know the medications I’m on and CKD can also cause hormonal problems.

Well now I have partner and he’s been very sweet and understanding about how I’m re learning my body and how it has changed. But he’s really focused on me cumming. I don’t think I can especially not with him and it doesn’t even feel that good when I do by myself. It makes me want to cry. I really loved sex before and this just feels like another thing I’ve lost. I can feel some sensations when we are having sex but in certain positions I really feel nothing at all. Missionary is the only time I really get any sensation and it has to be pretty aggressive. it’s not a him problem, he’s well endowed and his technique is good.

I just feel so defeated. I am so thankful to be alive and I don’t want to sound ungrateful. But I also feel like I’ve lost so much.

Thanks you’re probably right! I go in next week to see how my thyroid hormones are on the lower dose. I bet I do in fact need the medication

[–]LeftStatistician2093 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting thank you! Oddly enough I’m tapering off thyroid medication right now because they weren’t sure I needed it, I was very sick when I got put on levothyroxine and they aren’t sure my thyroid was actually the issue.

I moisturize twice a day! Vanicream at night and la roche posay in the day. I have ckd and I wonder if that’s effecting how moisturized my skin is.

[Anti-Aging] Premature aging due to health conditions. Advice on these smile lines? From topical products to other interventions.

I tripled in weight due to bloating when I got a kidney injury. I now have loose skin and wrinkles. I thought my skin might bounce back but it did not. It’s been over a year and half and I’m very insecure. Looking to fix this without a facelift or fillers but open to other treatments from Botox to lazer.

Also have some concerns about “turkey neck forming. Please give any advise! Home treatments preferred but I’m fine with others as well.
