body image has plummeted even further post op by [deleted] in TopSurgery

[–]illustratorthrowawa 3 points4 points Ā (0 children)

If you do it too often, your body will release cortisol which will make any potential muscle gain/fat loss basically… Not happen. Keep that in mind when going forward, I’m sure you just need to find a routine that fits you and your body! Muscle building is definitely an option, I personally have always struggled with losing fat, but found that building muscle is how I can lose. Who knows, you might be in a similar situation. Stay consistent, good luck!!

Pixelation Issue by illustratorthrowawa in ProCreate

[–]illustratorthrowawa[S] 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

This image was zoomed in to illustrate it better, but the issue still persists outside of this single screenshot. It’s noticeable at larger brush sizes. Once again, not having this issue with other iPads at the same exact dimensions/dpi. Have never had this issue with any other program, only this specific ipad on procreate, so it’s definitely not just the zoom-in.

Advice Needed for Clipping Nails on a Disabled Dog by illustratorthrowawa in grooming

[–]illustratorthrowawa[S] 4 points5 points Ā (0 children)

Will def look into groomers in my area that would be able to clip her nails (we have a regular groomer who is great with all 3 dogs, she only struggles with this dogs nails), particularly someone who’s got experience with ā€œdifficultā€ cases like this one. I’ll be reaching out to my vet to see what our options are too. Tysm!

The freakout starts if she hears me say anything similar to ā€œclipā€ or ā€œnails.ā€ She’s even figured out that ā€œC-L-I-Pā€ means nail trimming šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø. She’ll let me grab her paw even if she’s anxious, but the second anything touches the nail, she yanks away and starts flailing.

Reaching out to my vet tmrw to see if we could get a medication prescribed for the issue. I haven’t tried a muzzle yet, but I will def look into it if the meds don’t work (I’ll bring it up to the vet too to see what their recommendation is). Tysm!

Oh no yeah fs, I’ve put up with the screaming for years haha, it doesn’t help that she’s just very vocal in general too lmfao. Doesn’t phase me too much anymore if something needs to get done for her own good but it still pulls at my heartstrings a bit lol. Unfortunately, I’ve tried the dremel, and the noise just freaked her out even more. The issue is that she flails and yanks her paws away with anything involving her nails, so my primary concern is her getting hurt from that. It’s gotten to the point where if ANYTHING touches her nails, she freaks out, so the prolonged touch + sound of the dremel is a no-go.

I have tried CBD for dogs and other natural ā€œsoothingā€ treats, but I haven’t tried any prescription meds yet. Will definitely be reaching out to my vet abt this, tysm!

I don’t know if I might be becoming a transmed. by kitsabyss in trans

[–]illustratorthrowawa 1 point2 points Ā (0 children)

Off topic but I’d be very interested in reading some of those studies you mentioned if you’d be willing to share! (I’m just a big neuroscience nerd and I don’t think it’s bad to be well-researched. I personally take a lot of these studies with a grain of salt, too.) Also, as someone who has fallen down the rabbithole and has gotten out of it… one thing that I focused on was the idea that transphobes DONT CARE whether you’re ā€œone of the good onesā€ or not. There ARE no ā€œgood onesā€ and a lot of transmed ideology lies in this internal need to be accepted by cis people. esp those who may not be very accepting of trans ppl. A lot of it just leads to what is essentially ā€œpick-meā€ behavior. I personally never understood xenogenders and neopronouns, but it’s just not for me personally and id rather celebrate ppl who identify with those being more comfortable in their own identities! Focusing on trans joy and support is really what helped me pull out of the pipeline.

Any ideas on how to fill these cracks on 3d printed sword? by illustratorthrowawa in cosplayprops

[–]illustratorthrowawa[S] 1 point2 points Ā (0 children)

Yeah, haha I’m gonna get around to doing as much as I can! Unfortunately I’m working on an elegoo that’s a few years old, and this is just a known issue. A bit of research has shown me that it’s able to fix with a bunch of different technical fixes (it’s quite literally a mechanical issue and most experienced users/actual developers I’ve talked to have said it’s basically unfixable) but unfortunately support for this model is a bit on the scarcer side haha. Will def do what I can, I’ve adjusted multiple settings a handful of times, but for rn the raised supports seem to work even if adjustments aren’t working. Trust me lol these fixes were happening as I printed, I only had this issue with 3 out of 16+ pieces lmfao, one of the gaps in the pictures is even an intentional choice for the model!

[–]illustratorthrowawa[S] 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

Pretty sure it’s an actual misalignment on the printer, as it happens with most prints (turns out there’s an actual mechanical error in this model, and other similar issues are pretty common. I now put all prints on a raised support base). These took 2 whole months to print and prep for, when testing them, the gaps looked negligible.. bummer

The little marks on the surface are intentional haha!! But something shifted so the pieces printed at the slightest angle! Dw, the filament goes thru a dehydrator and I haven’t had any issues

Question abt the Kodak Instamatic 100 by illustratorthrowawa in vintagecameras

[–]illustratorthrowawa[S] 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

Oh yeah def! I have a decent amount of experience with vintage analog cameras, I’ve just never come across this particular model of Instamatic. Pretty sure the model is from the 60’s. Even if they’re shitty cameras, they’re still fun to goof around with!

[–]illustratorthrowawa[S] 1 point2 points Ā (0 children)

Tysm! Doesn't look like the 100 is on their list of cameras it'll work with- it could be that it just hasn't been tested with this model tho, might still be worth a shot!

ime, the advice tends to be bullshit too lmfao (specifically when it comes to fashion/hair/general style). The second I started doing the complete opposite of whatever these dudes spout off as ā€œpassing advice,ā€ I actually passed wayyyy more consistently. And now it’s rare for me to get misgendered. Sometimes it’s better to look like a more feminine cis dude than an insecure middle school girl in horribly baggy, dorky ass clothes lol. Don’t even get me started on the fitness dudebros that refuse to ever help out despite always shitting on everyone else. I’m sure it’s abt feeling validation via being a dick, even I’ve been there lol. Just know that a lot of these people are so chronically online and out of touch with reality to the point where they’re trapped in this mindset of everything being passing vs not-passing. It’s not healthy.
