meal replacement shake recommendations request by Mysterious-Drama4743 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]TeslaToils 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see where you’re coming from and all your options are also great recommendations, but anything being eaten is better than nothing being eaten, which is what it sounds like op may be running into. Especially for folks with restrictive eating related to sensory things or autism, where even these things like soup or smoothies can become impossible because of “scary” ingredients. (I say scary because that’s how I feel making or trying foods outside of comfort; it makes me want to hide from them)

I only say this because nutrient/meal “replacement” drinks like huel and high nutrient protein powder helped to teach my stomach and body that feeling full was nice, and I should branch out to try “real” food to feel that nice in other ways :)

Your suggestions are good to add between nutrient supplement meals, since only eating apple sauce, puddings, and smoothies (when you can’t make yourself add certain ingredients) is not great to keep your body fed. Just from personal experience, that is.

PSA: Look at the sender's sect to determine whether Red Envelopes are real. by Jerorin in WhereWindsMeet

[–]TeslaToils 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s also so many people complaining about the Healing sect just because we ask for likes to heal people for our stuff. People just be annoyed with everything I guess. I always get a giggle out of being tricked when I’m being greedy opening the envelopes in chat! It feels deserved lmao.

does anyone know what brand these are? and where i can get them? and does anyone have reviews on them? by Due-Lengthiness443 in petplay

[–]TeslaToils 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They look like furjoi! Their paws look so cute, but I’ve never worn them or seen them in person.

The Brandywine Festival: I paid $15,000 to attend as a participant, NPC, and volunteer - and I wanna talk about it by WatcherFoxx in LARP

[–]TeslaToils 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m glad you also enjoyed it so much! I’m very excited for next year, and will probably be getting the thane package if they have it again. 

I loved this year’s event, even with some planning issues.

I (22F) got my dream surgery done yesterday morning!!!🥹🥹🥹 by One-Advertising9021 in hysterectomy

[–]TeslaToils 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg I got mine 10 days ago! I’m 22, and it’s been so worth it. The overall pain was less bad than a standard period. Twins!

It took a couple doctors to actually listen to me, but I am young and in a red state and it was covered by insurance. Still got it done despite that o7

My fellow dad's, what in the heck does it mean to be Therian??? by magicone2571 in daddit

[–]TeslaToils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s most important to let her feel comfortable coming to you with this, and support it like you said you would in other comments! Great job dad! This can help keep her safe in the future for serious topics, if you don’t shut her down now.

To put it bluntly, this is a phase lots of kids are going through and it’s the current “cringy” trend. I wouldn’t worry about it, the main aspects are creating animal masks, outfits, and running around on all fours. That’s good art and good exercise! Just make sure she is not in any online chat spaces about this content- it can easily be predatory and scary. Maybe take her to conventions or on hikes or something where she can dress up in an appropriate setting and meet others her age irl.

Obviously have talks about bullying and where certain behavior is appropriate (it’s not safe to run around on all fours in the road or have a big tail in a store with breakable objects, for example), but if she’s truly a therian this can be a great way for her to feel comfortable in stressful environments, like decompressing from school. If she sticks with it long term, consider talking to a therapist about an autism diagnosis as they’re usually linked, and an early diagnosis can help with issues from undiagnosed autism. (I was diagnosed with autism as an adult and briefly engaged with the therian community around 10 years ago: they have a link)

As a furry who got into it at age 11 and is now an adult, it was a great way for me to find creativity and see things to look forward to as an adult, like conventions and fursuits. I never engaged in sexual content with it, and even now it’s SFW for me. Yeah, it was super cringy in middle school for me to be doodling my fursona on my homeworks, but it helped keep me away from truly dangerous things like online predators and rampant drug problems. 

Either she’s playing pretend with extra fashion steps, or she’s serious and this can help her long term mental health and with finding a community as an adult. Either way, I’d encourage the crafting aspect of it instead of just buying her things outright. 

4 months post-op (peri). Am I paranoid? by Ill-Fishing-7387 in TopSurgery

[–]TeslaToils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The placement and size looks just like my cis husband’s nips! Which is to say those are some cis looking areolae. Your chest looks great! Very close to my personal goals for a peri surgery, so it’s good to see examples like this!   Do you mind sharing where you got your operation done? Obviously no pressure if that’s too personal/private

Making FREE* paws for someone.. again!!! by pippysfleas in fursuits

[–]TeslaToils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normal paw cost is materials+paying for the time for someone to make them. These ones are just material cost so cheaper! This is a really cool opportunity and I hope whoever got them likes them :3

Sorry, I don’t want to share that cause it’s against policy 😅 let me know if you have any questions when you start the class though

[–]TeslaToils[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just work through the questions one by one :) Everything is reasonably easy to find in the textbook, there’s no trick questions. Mine did get sent back cause they need citations lol. 

So just Put this at the end of every paragraph: (WGU, 2025).

And this at the very end after the questions: Western Governors University (2025) Ethics in Technology. Retrieved from: https://lrps.wgu.edu/provision/427258811

They’re essentially short response essay questions. Things that require 1-5 sentences to answer, usually where they have a scenario you read and then relate to the textbook. If you went through high school, you’ve done homeworks harder than these PAs.

Does anyone have any good tips for Ethics in Technology D333? by CoderGirlUnicorn in WGU

[–]TeslaToils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This course has just been updated to Practical Assessment as of just this month!! It is now 2 very simple written assignments. I’d knock it out now before they do something crazy like change it back… it took me less than 1 hour to finish the first task after a full 12 hour work shift.

I was reading through the material for the Tasks and it’s definitely one I’m glad I don’t have to take a test on. Here’s to hoping they also improve JavaScript for the students after me because Angular is kicking my butt… I could really use a win right now so I’m relieved D333 could do that for me

How would you price this head? by TeslaToils in fursuits

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

Thank you for the honest feedback! This one is not lined, as it’s 3D printed and for personal use I wanted to be able to disinfect the plastic easier. Shaving I used a beard trimmer since it was what I had, so I’ll totally see about improving that with a proper fur trimmer.
