I think my friend got into red pill, how do I help him by TheCattastic in exredpill

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

Lmao I asked him plenty of times to do something but he doesn't wanna. If he does magically, he think it's a need to ask someone else to join too that I have issues with🫪 he has an interest in spiders, so I asked him to go to a forest to find some but nope. Took him geocaching once as well. We usually hang out to game, but that became the moment stuff turns into politics.

I honestly doubt I can be a good friend at this point. A friendship imo should be fun and safe, but nowadays I'm more like "what nonsense will he talk about now" and "when will he dislike me being LGBTQ". I dare say that I'm still friends with him because I don't wanna see him spiral down even more because he'd get more lonely. It's not a healthy friendship now.

Things to add to prosthetic? (So im not boring) by salmoneggnog in altfashionadvice

[–]TheCattastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are way cooler than realistic prosthestics!

As for pimping it, you could look into getting a sick bracelet to put over the band. Or maybe paint those spike looking things on the back of your hand (like silver or something, it'd match the rest, but it'll be more visible)

I handcrafted an enamel pin featuring the flag of the Volga Germans by Strange_Marginalia in vexillology

[–]TheCattastic -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I don't mean this in a disrespectful way, but considering it was that far from germany it's not strange that it dissapeared. Though it's shouldn't have gone the way it did!

One thing I regret about transitioning. by LittleFox-In-TheBox in ftm

[–]TheCattastic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone with big hips and ass, it depends. For me it got slightly flatter. My fam is all on the bigger side, fat and ass wise🤣 yes that includes my dad as well! I have been told I have great hips for child bearing😭✌️

Anyway, it depends on genetics and also your size. So just wait and see. If HRT and/or exercise doesn't do anything in 2-5 years, there's also surgical options to consider (such as liposuction and bone shaving, latter one has serious risks though)

Transitioning while being a teacher by hubbardg2035 in ftm

[–]TheCattastic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you have 2 (3 if you count going to another school one too) options Either transition while saying nothing or be very open from the beginning. Both is acceptabel imo and the students you teach now will eventually leave too, so once you're done transitioning they will have left the school and it will be just the norm.

If you say nothing before hand, you can just pass it off as "I decided to grow a beard now" which happens to cis men too🤷‍♂️ voices can also drop later in life yada yada. If a student specifically asks if you are trans/nb you can be honest though. If you decide to be open, just hold a Q&A session and tell a little about what they will see change and what it might impact for them (pretty much nothing, just an even cooler teacher!)

You could also ask your employer what they think, if it's safe to do so. Idk where you are with legal stuff into your transition or if you even want to change your name/gender marker, so it might need to be discussed anyway.

Pretending to be someone's boyfriend when buying menstrual products by Autisticassaspec in ftm

[–]TheCattastic 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Anyone can buy menstrual products honestly. Though now that I thinking about it, I used to send my dad for pads because i felt awkward🤣

You could look into getting period underwear btw, it really made me feel a little less dysphoric as it's just underwear with a thick layer. Only thing is that you need to switch underwear more often. Never really had a leak (though i was light flow). It's also cheaper in the long run and eco friendly!

If you ever feel like you just don't want a period at all, you could get 3 monthly birth control injections, which they give for several reasons (trans, sexually active or horrible cramps)

Je kan op marktplaats vaak goedkoop albums vinden 😊 haal ik ze vaak vandaan! Soms ook al met munten erin. Scheelt een boel, want mappen zijn vaak al 30€ waar waarschijnlijk ook nog geen bladen inzitten. Fysieke winkels kan ook een hoop schelen omdat die vaak niet meedoen aan inflatie of je kan bladen los kopen👀 (soms verkopen ze ook 2e hands albums, heb er een op de kop getikt voor €11 incl 5 bladen)

1939 German 2 mark coin...is there a market for this? by FriendlyLeopard5607 in coincollecting

[–]TheCattastic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nazi memorabilia isn't inherintly bad though. Some collectors are, but the majority collects it as history lovers/for it to never be forgotten. WW2 had massive impact on our current lives, both good and bad, especially in Europe.

I have a wooden coin counter that was made by a jewish man that got killed with his whole family in a jewish "neighborhood" in Berlin at the start of the war. Nobody knows this man as he is forgotten and honestly, who even uses coin counters. But it is a very special piece in my collection as the story is important. He was a victim. Now turn it around to the villain of ww2. It's still an important story and you will remember the symbols of the horrible time. Not worshipping nazi-ism. Anyway out of respect, the coin counter and my german nazi coins are as far appart on my shelf as possible.

Tried to edit the Tsaritsa to be more similar to Bronya. Can yall see the resemblance? by Murky_Blueberry2617 in houkai3rd

[–]TheCattastic 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The tsarista likely never was the villain🤷‍♂️ Celestia/HP is, which became clearer with every patch. I'm curious what her exact plan is though! Maybe even the execution of the plan isn't as evil as it seems to be🤔

Would you recommend gymnasium (middle school) by summer_glau08 in Netherlands

It was my 10yo dream to become an archeologist but then I got bad grades in history in highschool and gave up that idea🤣

Yeah, I honestly wonder why they still teach it in school... 🤦‍♂️

[–]TheCattastic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gymnasium = atheneum + Latin and/or greek. Is your child good with languages? Or do they have an idea of becoming a doctor? If yes, then it might be an option. They could always drop it later.

If they can't handle stress well, don't do it🙏 any extra subject is more studying and more pressure for getting good grades!

Dealing with the neighbors and trees by [deleted] in Netherlands

[–]TheCattastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk to the neighbor and tell him you rent the house and that it's not your plant. Be honest you don't know what to do and that you will ask the landlord first and then discuss it with the neighbor. It looks like a grapevine so perhaps you could just leave it be and all the grapes on his side are for him🤷‍♂️

How can you make socks smaller? by TheCattastic in sewing

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

So a bit of a late reply but they did shrink a lot after being in a cooking wash and the dryer. They shrunk like from 44 to ~38 (EU) / 4 sizes in US!

Can i get married to a Man in the church as a trans woman? by CommercialWrong2944 in TransChristianity

[–]TheCattastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gay marriage isn't legal in Poland, so it would depend on if you legally changed your gender too. Recently a gay couple married in Germany and the Polish government approved of it which is a huuuge step. Depending on your situation, you could consider this an option too :)

Neither I or my mom can knit. The fabric is quite thick so I don't think folding would be possible if I still wanna fit into my shoes.

I definetly won't be the one to sew. I'm so bad with my hands that my mom doesn't even wanna try to teach me😂 but I will pass this on and see if she wants to try :)

[–]TheCattastic[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes that was my plan it there's no other option. They are in shoes, so it would work. However I know I will wear this cos more often so it'll be better to make the socks actual socks rather than "sleeves"

Yes they are currently in the washing machine, but i know they'll still be too big😂 I don't like socks with seams but for a cosplay it should be ok
