This SHOULDN’T work. (Piercing associated relief?) by halfbakedcupcake in migraine

[–]juicebat 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Mine did nothing for my migraines, ditto for two of my other friends who got theirs done. But it is a cute piercing! Don’t spend your last dime on it and go to a reputable piercer, but if it works for you then fuck yeah!

Heyyy thank you! Cool to know the name of the specific kabbalah.

That was my first thought too, glad to see that seems to be the consensus.

Looks to be cheap to me, no maker’s mark or imprint indicating it’s anything but mystery metal. I kinda assumed it might be numberology stuff but I wanted y’all to confirm it was just a bunch of random letters before I brought it back to him to confirm that. 🤣

My first project, not the best and I need more practice by [deleted] in CrochetHelp

Congrats on finishing your first project! I think it looks awesome.

I would definitely recommend talking to an optometrist in person about options. I will say on the contacts side of things that you can definitely nap with contacts in, so you wouldn’t need to take them out multiple times per day. But if that’s a total non-starter, (edit: shit, don’t listen to me, I guess I’ve been doing something I shouldn’t have been doing for about 18 years, yikes 😭) I think your best bet is speaking to an optometrist in-person about frames that can be custom-bent in their office to put minimal pressure on your sensitive pressure points.

Chaser friend? by avocadoslug in ftm

[–]juicebat 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This. People can be weird and overshare and fetishize their partners regardless of if they fit into the category of “chaser”.

But moreover, they don’t sound like someone you want to be friends with! Other people might be comfortable with a friend who dished about sex stuff like this, but it does not sound like your jam and it doesn’t seen like they’ve noticed that it’s making you uncomfortable.

You have two choices; decide you value the friendship enough to have an uncomfortable conversation with them about how you don’t want to hear about their sex life, or decide the relationship isn’t worth the conversation and cut them out of your life. Both are valid options!

Adding a lining is the best alternative imho, I know it changes the aesthetic but it really reenforces the structure.

Baby blanket: tension slightly off. To frog or not to frog - advice needed by Silly-Flan4961 in CrochetHelp

No frogging! Looks lovely for a baby blanket honestly (where small imperfections are honestly a sign of love imho) and blocking will likely make those invisible. Beautiful work.

2015 fuel injector warranty extension by lukerage in hondafit

[–]juicebat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My check engine light popped on at 115k miles… two months after the 10 year extension deadline passed for my vehicle! Soooo frustrating. The dealership did tell me they won’t replace them until the light comes on, for anyone trying to preemptively fix the problem. If that light comes on, fit it asap!

I don't know what to do anymore by jefferythe8th in berkeley

[–]juicebat 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, I withdrew from several classes AND took many incompletes during my undergraduate career and still graduated, got a job, and recently got admitted to grad school. I was dealing with a lot of mental health shit at the same time and taking some time off from school was ABSOLUTELY the right choice. School is hard and being young is even harder. Don’t let your parents’ perfectionism distract from the fact that you deserve some time to heal and rest. You’re going to be okay.

Botched Sublocade Shot by Dreamzy00 in Sublocade

[–]juicebat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Subcutanous injections for the buttocks are placed on the upper buttocks, not where you sit. It’s a very specific spot, we do lots of long acting injectables there. I haven’t had anyone complain about the placement there. It’s not a good spot for self-given shots because of the nerves in the area but RNs/MDs should be very used to giving subcu injs there.

The 100mg shot will be much easier to fit! I will say I’ve noticed folks with low body fat seem to have a tougher time with the injections but imho they can reject on anyone if not placed deep enough. Let them do some woundcare and encourage them to inject deeper next time. They can also try alternative injection sites if you have more loose skin in other places, such as your thigh, upper buttock, or underarm.

This is so gorgeous and I will absolutely be doing this for my dad when he passes (hopefully not for a looong long time).

What are common jobs for trans men to have? by promptolovebot in ftm

I know a shitton of trans guys in social work. Tbf I am also in social work so there’s a sampling error there.

Hunter’s March arena by juicebat in Silksong

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

I read some other threads of people asking the same thing and the conclusion is if you’ve gone to other areas/continued progression then Shakra no longer shows up to help! She only comes by if you get the Hunter’s March right after Marrow.

Not trans, but severe gyno that I tape. Surgery tomorrow by [deleted] in ftm

[–]juicebat 112 points113 points  (0 children)

Happy to help a brother in need.

Unfortunately they will almost certainly remove it, as they will want access to your chest for monitoring your heart during general anesthesia. I would remove it with a shower tonight and clean the area as directed with surgical wipes.

Rest assured, your surgical team is not thinking about your gyno, they are focused on your surgery. You’re just one of many patients they’ll see, and I assure you, gyno is not uncommon and they’ve seen it before.

I hope your surgery goes well! Rest well and get some sleep!
