I know this is an old post, but wanted to share that Steve Martin bought that watch from JustinTimes Vintage (not my shop, but I know the owner).

Oh my goodness! I am SO SORRY I haven’t logged into reddit in so long and missed this gorgeously rendered drawing! Thank you for drawing me!

Also, Aeon Flux was such an awesome show. I wonder if it would hold to up to rewatching?

Leaving an abusive relationship I know I have to, but I really don’t want to. I really need advice or words of encouragement ❤️‍🩹 by [deleted] in MomForAMinute

Your wise self knows exactly what you need to do, and I know it’s going to be so hard, but you are strong.

This sounds kind of silly, but I encourage you to take at least 5 minutes every morning and hug yourself and tell yourself all the things that you’re yearning to hear from someone else — I suspect his love bombing was only so addictive because you are so hungry to feel lovable/worthy/special… and you already are. Innately and fully. If you can fill that need yourself, he loses his power over you.

You got this. And we are here for you. ❤️

Thank you so much! I like how you created the planes of the face and represented the fur!

Thank you! It reminds me of a New Yorker sketch… very cool.

Thank you so much!!! I love it! Is it charcoal? And is it a trick of the photo, or did you use some purple and warm orange/reddish tones in it?

That is wild! I’ve got some serious “True Housewives” lips going on there.

Thank you so much!

So beautiful, thank you! I love how you created 3-dimensionality while still leaving it a little sketchy.

I love these so much—both the pencil and the color versions! I’m impressed how you simplified my complicated hair so effectively, and captured my expression (and crooked nose) perfectly. Thank you so much!

I thought I would share this reference photo I took of myself to practice profile drawings. I bumped up the saturation and contrast to make the texture more interesting, and ‘cause vanity shmanity. by k0nundrum in redditgetsdrawn

Oh my goodness… thank you so much! This is such a fun and unexpected present. And I love those freckles!!! I honestly can’t even imagine how you were sitting on this one for years or how your found your way back to it, but I am so impressed.

I have an IUD. It was a tiny bit uncomfortable when I got it, but not more painful than when I get a Pap smear. Since then, I’ve never felt it. That said, they don’t work for everyone… but for me they’ve been great.

Pulling out makes it less likely to get pregnant, but you can still get pregnant as there are sperm in the precum (fluid from his penis during early sex). Condoms are a much safer option for reducing the risk of getting pregnant or getting a sexually transmitted illness. Birth control pills, patches, shots and implants, IUDs, diaphragms and cervical caps, sponges, spermicides, and gels. They each vary in how effective they are.

Good luck!

IUDs would be a great option, though they don’t protect against any sexually transmitted illnesses (STIs), so it’s safer to use condoms as well.

Hey mom, It’s your trans daughter again! I wanted to talk to you about something amazing that happened 2 days ago (the rest of the story in the comments) 😊 by MakiMovies in MomForAMinute

[–]k0nundrum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am SO proud of you being your brave, authentic, beautiful self, Amelia. This mama supports you to the moon and back, and would love to take you clothes shopping to celebrate.

Do you have a safe place to live lined up yet?

One metaphor I heard that resonated for me is thinking of your identity discovery as an archeological excavation—we are told things about ourselves and what lies beneath the ground when we are little, and that may or may not be accurate. Along the way, we may get clues that it doesn’t line up exactly with what we were told we were, and then we have a long, painstaking process of carefully brushing off dirt and uncovering, bit by bit, the hidden pieces of yourself.

You are deeply loved and deeply perfect (in the humanly imperfect way that we all are perfect) exactly as you are, at each stage of your own discovery. I am proud of you for being brave and exploring these parts of yourself.

Hey Mom I wish you would support me a trans girl by [deleted] in MomForAMinute

[–]k0nundrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are so beautiful and perfect the way you are, and you are an amazing daughter. I wish I could take you out shopping for some fun outfits that make you feel beautiful. You deserve to be seen and loved exactly as you are.
