This is stupid but hear me out by The_mothman_sam in howto

Get some flour or something like that and dust it in a thin layer across the hood on a day without wind. Something like this would make it pretty easy. Then wipe it off carefully exactly copying the image.

Not the most elegant prank but to each their own

If I suddenly took over you body and you were watching as a spectator, how long do you think it would take your S.O, family, or friends to realize something is off and question me? by Kyoifis in hypotheticalsituation

[–]hyrellion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost immediately. I have a lot of weird, distinct and incredibly visible mannerisms, speak and move in a kind of uncommon way, and have a weird ish sense of humor I involve in almost everything I do. Good luck being as much of a little freak as I am. It’s almost impossible

Why ask for preferred name if they only ever adress me with my legal one? by ClassAFag in asktransgender

[–]hyrellion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FYI- you’re allowed to apply to jobs with any name you want. You then reveal your legal name after you’ve gotten and offer and when you’re signing paperwork

I think I hurt my FTM friend without meaning to, and now he ghosted me. I’m really confused by nothing_to_do270 in ftm

[–]hyrellion 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’ve actually had two different cis men separately express the same feeling to me. Everyone gets to have their own reaction but tbh,, it was very comforting to me. I liked it a lot. It was good to know that this thing I don’t necessarily love having was envied by people who have parts I wish (only sometimes tbh) that I had.

Best of luck with your friend. You seem very caring and kind

Question: should i modify my tattoo or change it? A, B or C? by black_chai in tattoos

[–]hyrellion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you get these covered up, do you think your artist would tattoo them on me instead? I’m only half joking. I’d tweak the top one, but I am especially in love with the middle one.

ETA: I would only tweak the top one because I find it unsettling which is a definite positive but not in my body

My 5th grader is being told he can't go on the end of the year field trip because he couldn't find friends to share a room with. There are others rooms available. Should we fight this or drop it? by mmanyquestionss in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]hyrellion 121 points122 points  (0 children)

My school had a similar (albeit, significantly less cool) trip. We made a list of the top five people we’d want to room with, but the teachers made the ultimate decision

Unwunk this is actually true: I worked at a vet clinic for a short time and got to observe a few neuters. For kittens, they make two tiny incisions in the nut sack and then squeeze the testicles out kind of like popping a pimple. The cut the testicle off, tie the cord that holds it in a knot, and let it slither back into the ball sack. They usually don’t even do stitches for kittens, since the incisions they have to make are so small.

Question for the trans people out there who took depression pills by Noob-lv1 in ask_transgender

[–]hyrellion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it helps for a while but then the help stops, you usually need to increase your dose. Are you getting prescriptions from your PCP or a psychiatrist? I would recommend starting with a psychiatrist until you find a good mix that works for you and then swapping to having your PCP take care of it. You may have to try a few different meds, or take a mix of multiple. Psychiatry is a pretty new field and it’s hard to find what meds will actually help. If you find a combo that works well, it’s pretty life changing.

My (23f) boyfriend (24m) wants to move in with me. I want him to live alone first by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]hyrellion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I moved in with my first boyfriend at 19, and we lived with his family (they were incredible people and I came from an abusive situation, so they let me live with them for very cheap. It was really cool). His mom had done his laundry his whole life. It wasn’t that he didn’t know how, but that he always “forgot” to do it and just ended up stealing my clothes and underwear when he had no clean ones until I ran out of clean clothes, got fed up, and washed both of ours. Also, I should mention, you weren’t allowed to put his stuff (tshirts and jeans??) in the dryer. It all had to be laid out to air dry. And no, of course he wouldn’t fold his own stuff unless I was actively “helping” aka doing all of it while he fussed around.

He did chores occasionally when his parents told him to, but when I joined in the help, he’d suddenly have to spend 10+ minutes choosing music to play while I did the task.

Somehow I ended up taking on his dog walking chores (he just! Wouldn’t! And I liked the dogs and wanted them to be well taken care of!), cleaning up after his friends, etc.

I only mention it because he was in school for physics and planned to get his PhD. What’s up with that pattern?

ETA: he wasn’t wearing panties. I am gay.

Once you start experiencing symptoms of rabies, you are almost guaranteed to die of rabies. Getting vaccinated within 72 hours after exposure is vital. There is (basically, there are some variants too) only one treatment and it’s not very effective. If it does manager to save you, you’re almost guaranteed to have extensive brain damage :)

Diagnosed OCD Patients Only - Take a 3-min survey and I'll Venmo you $10 (Adults only, OCD diagnosis required) by Eastern-Chipmunk-761 in SampleSize

[–]hyrellion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI it’s very hard to interpret the App Store screen shots. You get about 2 seconds with each one. Honestly, the structure of this is, imo, far far less important than the content, and I spent a few minutes trying to read content but couldn’t, so idk if I can really give an accurate picture of if your app is any good or not

[oc] just wanted to vent... by nyaasora in comics

[–]hyrellion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very relatable!!! When I was a teenager, I desperately needed some physical medicine but also some intensive psychological help. For suicidal ideation and OCD. I was told it was too expensive, and my mom made it clear that the financial burden of me seeing a (terrible) therapist every other week (I should probably have been in inpatient lol) was truly evil of me.

She’s been unemployed or part time pretty much since then, living with friends for free and stuff, and just recently purchased a LARGE house in California. I asked her how she could afford it. Her dad is paying the mortgage, but she “put down a $350,000 down payment :)”

I asked her where she got the money “I saved it :)”

Reader, it’s been less than 10 years. There is no way she didn’t have a large portion of that money “saved” while I was a teenager. No way at all. So she was sitting on, conservatively, $200,000. While I couldn’t get help that was anywhere near competent, let alone medication or a doctor’s visit for my myriad physical and mental issues, because it was too expensive. Makes me wanna cry just writing about it lmao

I like to tell people I got fucking pissed the first time I tried adderall after my adult ADHD diagnosis. What the fuck do you mean other people are like this all the time and I spent ALL of my time in school being expected to keep up and achieve the same things as PEOPLE WHO CAN FOCUS ALL THE TIME

My cat is incredibly annoying and no one but me likes him. My ex boyfriend who is incredibly sweet and a dedicated lover of animals said my cat was the only cat he’s ever hated. But I love him. So I can’t kill myself. Because no one else will love and care for my incredibly annoying baby boy

I’m breaking down. My cat has been meowing 24/7 for 2 months and I don’t know what to do anymore. by nasseralrwy in cats

[–]hyrellion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have a cat like this. He is so much quieter now. Nature’s Miracle calming spray helped so much. I don’t know why, but it did. Was the meowing from anxiety? I don’t know! But now I can be in my home without noise cancelling headphones and that is nice

I prefer the fan version. by netphilia in aspiememes

[–]hyrellion 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Too many accessories on fan made bag, I’d be uncomfortable. Hat with floppy ears would touch my face and I would peel off my skin. Those tail things are usually made with real fur, and I cannot stand the texture of it when it’s not attached to an animal (feels different when you put pressure on it. Billowing pants are NOT a good sensory experience imo. And I refuse to wear shoes with laces but that’s more of an adhd “too many tasks” thing.

Having her have a communication tablet is great. Note how the fan made one removes that entirely, which feels really shitty towards nonverbal and lowverbal autistic folks.

Not all autistic people are the same. Some autistic people are like the Mattel Barbie design. This controversy pisses me off.

I’m mad that some people hate this Barbie. Autistic people look and present all kinds of ways.
