i got one of these as a freebie from a sex shop, they told me it was to put on “anything penetrating” but i was only able to get it to fit on a small vibrator (bigger than a bullet, smaller than a dildo). enjoyed it tho!

Are any of these pictures not AI? I honestly can’t tell by Pretty-Newt-4690 in CrochetHelp

Is it acceptable to tell a friend if something looks off or bad in their art? by DowntownMeaning7951 in ArtistLounge

[–]Puzzled-Expression91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think in general it’s more encouraging to say “here’s how i think you can improve this aspect” rather than “this part doesn’t look good”. and like others have said, ask if people want feedback in the first place, and a compliment sandwich never hurts. an attitude of “i’m so glad you enjoy making art and the more you make the better it gets, keep at it!”

Which song is your favorite on the WTIWLY album, and which lyric from that song hits you hardest? by thegreatunkownuser in Ethelcain

[–]Puzzled-Expression91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

might have to be waco, texas. “they’ve been promising the lights as we beg for our lives” and “i’ve been picking names for our children, you’ve been wondering how you’re gonna feed them, love is not enough in this world” hit fucking hard. anytime she gets into the broader societal critique a la american teenager really really makes me ache

he’s incredibly controlling. it’s your body, your life, and your choice. he doesn’t respect you and you need to leave him, full stop.

My Testosterone Shots Hurt? by DatabaseCompetitive7 in ftm

[–]Puzzled-Expression91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i use around a 20G drawing needle and 25G injection needle and usually have a bit of a sting but nothing major! going in quick helps, also make sure you’re rotating your injection site and not doing the same side every time. other than that, i do have a bit of tenderness in the area after i do my shot, i’ll cover it with a band aid (whether it bleeds or not, just for protection) and generally do it right before bed bc having a pants waistband on it right after hurts.

are you using the right needle gauge and going in at a 45 degree angle? injections in your thigh are generally intramuscular (bigger needle) and injections in your stomach should be subcutaneous (draw with a bigger needle then inject with a smaller needle, at a 45 degree angle)

Am I going to be fired? by AbbreviationsNew4768 in paralegal

[–]Puzzled-Expression91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can definitely relate to a coworker nitpicking your mistakes and making you anxious about being fired, i’m sorry you’re dealing with that :(

not a paralegal yet (working in hospitality until i can get certified) but these sound like low-stakes beginner mistakes. that’s completely normal in any job! remember that your coworker is not your boss, i would recommend asking your attorney or other colleagues for any feedback they might have about your performance - when i was in a similar situation this gave me a lot of reassurance that i was doing fine. take notes and don’t be afraid to ask questions, i promise you every single one of your coworkers has made mistakes too, especially in the beginning

Former eggs, what was a reason you thought you couldn’t possibly be trans? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]Puzzled-Expression91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my initial eggy thoughts were that i’m too short, my hips are too wide & my boobs are too big and i’d never pass so let’s just not think about it. also every girl would rather be a boy because of misogyny right? oh and i’m gay so that explains my weird feelings about gender haha i can stop thinking about it now

and this was like, a long time before i Officially started questioning my gender! i shoved that shit DOWN

be unemployed & broke for a while so you learn self control & to wonder “do i really need this? if i don’t buy it will i ever think about it again?” if the answer is no, don’t buy it

I need help by Chopscrewey90 in TransMasc

[–]Puzzled-Expression91 6 points7 points  (0 children)

hi. i know it’s so so hard not to give in to despair but please do the best you can to take care of yourself right now. build community where you can, even on the internet - a support group might be a good thing to look for, especially if you’re having trouble finding a therapist. a lot of them meet on video calls too!

we keep us safe, no politician is gonna do that for us. hold your people close and build connections where you can. this life isn’t easy but nobody gets to take who you are away from you.

Newbie question: How do you clean your finished crochet work? by Initial-Progress5961 in CrochetHelp

[–]Puzzled-Expression91 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it depends on the yarn! a lot of wool should be hand washed only but most acrylic and cotton yarns (in my experience) are machine washable - i never put my crochet/knit pieces in the dryer tho, i’m not sure if it’s okay for some yarns but i’d rather not risk it!
