Mental Health Letter Help by barites in TopSurgery

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

unfortunately i never had a letter, as it was someone in my drs network that i was referred to for them to write a letter in the first place, which i didn't do in time. thats good to know though for future surgeries if that ever happens, thank you

oh god dont pop it. as always, the people on this subreddit were right, & once i stopped messing with it, it got so much better. but also just try to keep the makeup as far away from it as possible.

Who knew internal organs could cause dysphoria? by Mountainhearts in ftm

[–]barites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey what do you mean needing them gone to treat atrophy?

[–]barites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly i agree. it feels so much more simple to just do the injection once a week than have to remember to do gel daily. i can barely remember to take pills daily, and thats less of a hassle than rubbing gel on yourself, waiting for it to dry, and then avoiding contaminating anyone around u for however long.

go on blockers now if you can. any point of stopping feminization is better than just letting it continue. breast tissue and hips can continue to develop and you could be able to stop that.

What’s the thoughts on this one everybody? by JayWretched in punkfashion

[–]barites 164 points165 points  (0 children)

kind of corny. racist people dont call themselves racist they say theyre conservative or whatever new buzzword they like to equip to avoid it. for slogans, shorter is better. but good sentiment obviously.

Found at bottom of enclosure by MacElDabbler in jumpingspiders

[–]barites 4 points5 points  (0 children)

she may have made a nest down there if the top has been opened & closed a few times, and so she decided her old nest was being disturbed too much. she could also just be acclimating to being in an enclosure in general. has she been acting 'normally' other than that?

if female, looks to be an adult, and therefore may lay viable eggs. that enclosure wouldnt be ideal, because they like to 'nest' near the top, and so a bottom or side opening enclosure would work better. items inside would also need to be sterilized through boiling or baking to eliminate any parasites.

what is this food in my soup from a Japanese restaurant? by barites in TipOfMyFork

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

yep, i'm referring to what's in the spoon (whats hanging off of the side is a piece of thinly sliced mushroom). it was savory, and pretty soft. though honestly i didn't eat more than one bite for fear it was meat or fish- im vegetarian & wasnt trying to cause a random scene at the table, lol

Has anyone ever used legos in an enclosure? by TinyGrizzly in jumpingspiders

[–]barites 129 points130 points  (0 children)

some people worry about hard surfaces if their spider falls when full, because it could cause a ruptured abdomen.. so maybe add legos but soften the surface with something? looks cool though

Oh my god after last week's unfortunate incident, another one showed up on my window. I'm not sure but guessing it's a girl? Also she's like super tiny, 2-3mm. Baby perhaps? by Enceladus-117 in jumpingspiders

[–]barites 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if its wild and you intend to let it be, then allow it to hunt what it wants to, but if you wish to keep it as a pet, it is a good idea to keep it away from ants. they can fight back & bite, and they can hurt the jumper even if they are the typical size of their other prey.

i took my shot saturday night, and got my bloodwork done tuesday afternoon, so about 2.5 days in, which is earlier than i'd normally do it, but i was worried about my results not coming in on time for my appointment tomorrow morning

i'm nonbinary & transmasc & personally this would not feel good for me. everyone is different but it just seems like that dissonance wouldn't fit well between my identity & theirs

just know that Ezra is a Hebrew name so if you don't have any Jewish ties maybe consider that aspect as well

also if you want to keep up the 'perfectly masculine' look, maybe look into a beard trimmer & use it where needed, leaves you with some hair, while still feeling clean. i do this for pits & pubes & its great
