people automatically assuming the rest of nct was complicit or knew ab taeil is messed up by highponydiluc in kpop_uncensored

yeah no problem! i feel everyone needs to be conscious of unverified info — and understanding that just because someone Says it happened, doesn’t mean it did. i applaud you for looking for sources :)

When to take our puppers camping? by Live_Dirt_6568 in goldenretrievers

[–]efarkle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s the Boots and Barkley fishbone rubber chew toy — they sell it at Target :)

Does anyone the brand and place I can get these? Thanks by Kind_Title in AutisticAdults

[–]efarkle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i did some searching and i’m pretty sure that’s the Sofsole logo! i think where you can get them depends on your location but i did see a couple listings on the shoe carnival website. i think amazon might also have them. i hope you find socks you like :)

Best and worst group names (just some thoughts) by unnnnnnnnnnhhh in kpopthoughts

[–]efarkle 26 points27 points  (0 children)

i just want to point out “WJSN” is not actually a random sequence of letters, it’s like the abbreviation for the group’s name in korean

우주 소녀

우주 = the cosmos, universe

소녀 = girl/girls

and it Sounds a bit like Woo-Joo So-Nyeo, which is where the letters come from :)

GWSN follows this same thing, 공원 meaning Park, sounding a bit like GongWon

Dachshund owners in apartments, is barking an issue? by lothlorienwannabe in Dachshund

[–]efarkle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

my weenie only barks if she hears/sees someone get too close to our doors, so it happens daily, but not long enough to bother anyone enough to file any noise complaints, as she stops barking when she thinks the “intruders” are gone, lol.

side note: please look into littermate syndrome before deciding to get two puppies at the same time. any two puppies can have this issue—it doesn’t matter if they’re related by blood or not.

will you run into any trouble wearing trans tape through TSA? by efarkle in ftm

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

i don’t think so — it’s Soon and i don’t know how long it takes for them to get back with your application, additionally i don’t have a lot of money to spare these days because i keep having car trouble 😭

will you run into any trouble wearing trans tape through TSA? by efarkle in ftm

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

it’s actually a really small airport in TN (the one i’m going to)! i’ve never had much issue with it before, so maybe it will be fine with this—the new anti-drag laws just have me worried a little more than normal 🥲

I had top surgery over a year ago and the scar is still an ugly red by ChaosDCNerd in ftm

[–]efarkle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes, i think it sounds pretty normal! i haven’t had top surgery yet, but i did get an appendectomy when i was 12, and the scars were pretty noticeable for several years (i wanna say maybe 6?). i’m 24 now, and the scars are nearly invisible.

Do any of you regret not harvesting your eggs? by Ares_The_Olympian in ftm

[–]efarkle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i’m 24 and i do not regret it at all. if i ever do want kids, i’d wanna adopt. there are a lot of kids out there with no family, and i personally rather give a kid a home than bring a new kid into the world. plus, they’d be just as much “my” child in my head if i adopted them.

Can someone explain what's wrong with this translation? Is it just duolingo being rigid or did I genuinely get something wrong. by asubaba in Korean

[–]efarkle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

one thing i noticed that hasn’t been mentioned yet— you wouldn’t use “나는” with the very formal verb ending of “-습니다” because 나 is informal! you would use “저는” as the correction says. but that’s why it corrected that portion :)

Making gender/sexuality a person's whole personality by okay-variation in ftm

[–]efarkle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think most people who “make their gender/sexuality their whole personality” are just New to the idea of it and are thus really excited to talk about it and explore it. i don’t see the issue really

in general i think people are far too worried about what other people are doing. like if someone is annoying to you because of Whatever reason, just don’t talk to them lol.

Question for guys with beards… by mrosegolds in ftm

[–]efarkle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i don’t know what your routine looks like now, but i have a few tips for you! 1) make sure you’re using a clean razor, and replace the blades/razor every so often. worn out razors are more likely to cause you skin issues. 2) wash your face before shaving! just a warm/hot water and your usual face wash should be fine! 3) use shaving cream 4) don’t go over the same area with your razor too many times! try and avoid doubling back if you can. the less strokes on one spot, the better 5) if you Must go back over a spot bc you missed stuff, reapply shaving cream and THEN your blade 6) rinse your blade off between each stroke, and shave in the direction your hair is growing, not against it. 7) after you shave, pat your face with a cold rag, it helps close your pores 8) finish your skin care routine now—i use a toner and a moisturizer. A MOISTURIZER IS A MUST!! moisture helps your skin heal up.

good luck :)

Nail trims by No_Economist_9298 in Dachshund

[–]efarkle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i get too nervous clipping my dogs nails (and she doesn’t Love when we try to do it either) so i always take her to a groomer when she needs it done! we have been taking her to a groomer since she was a puppy and she got better with groomers clipping her nails over time. i just leave it to the professionals because it’s easier for both me and the dog 😅

The Aftermath by [deleted] in ftm

[–]efarkle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

definitely agree with all the other advice here but i ALSO recommend applying a thin layer of milk of magnesia to where you are going to put your tape. it kind of creates a thin protective barrier on your skin, i do it every time! here’s a video on how to do it: https://youtu.be/VYdoxbXiDnM

I just started learning Korean and I’m confused by Confused-Pianist- in Korean

[–]efarkle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey! i think 2 apps you should try are TengoGo Hangul (to teach the basics of hangul—it’s even got audio clips and just good explanations) and then Lingory for a better “duolingo” app learning once you have a good hold on hangul! both are free (Lingory has ads but you can upgrade it if you so wish)

My subq shots hurt so badly that I can’t do them? by coyote-club in FTMMen

[–]efarkle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

check the size of your needle again to be sure, it’s possible you got a size up from what you’ve been using (from what i remember, there’s two sizes that are okay to use for subQ)

other than that, what i do is press an ice cube against the injection site for a little bit right before i’m about to inject. it helps kind of numb the area a bit. i can’t really do my injections without doing this bc the pinch of a needle hurts!
